Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, consider marinating the steak for up to 24 hours. If you're short on time, a few hours will still impart good taste. Use low-sodium soy sauce to reduce sodium intake, and feel free to replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for a different sweetness. Adjust the spices according to personal taste; fresh minced garlic can replace garlic powder for more intensity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different cut of meat for this recipe?
Yes, you can use other tender cuts like sirloin or ribeye, but adjust cooking times as they may vary in thickness. Flank steak is preferred for its flavor and texture, but tenderness is key, so choose cuts that are ideal for grilling.
What can I serve with these steak rolls?
These steak rolls go well with a variety of sides, including coleslaw, corn on the cob, or baked potatoes. You might also try serving them with a refreshing cucumber salad or a rice dish to balance the meal. They are versatile enough to fit into any barbecue spread.
How do I know when the steak is done cooking?
For medium doneness, aim for an internal temperature of 145°F. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy. Remember that the steak will continue to cook slightly after being removed from the grill, so it's best to take it off just before it reaches the desired temperature.
