Directions

Prepare a charcoal grill for direct heat grilling.
Cut the onion and bell pepper into strips and season with olive oil and AP Seasoning. Place the vegetables in a 1/2 size aluminum pan and set on the grill to saute. Stir often and remove from heat once vegetables begin to soften and brown a little.
Season the NY Strips with a little Worcestershire first then AP Seasoning followed by a generous coat of Steak Rub.
Place the cheese sauce on the side of the grill just off the coals to warm.
Grill each steak directly over the hot coals about 3 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 125-130°F. Remove from the grill and rest for 5-7 minutes.
Split the ciabatta rolls in half and grill for 20-30 seconds until brown and toasty.
Slice the steaks into thin strips.
