Black & Blue Steak

Ingredients 
2 New York Strip Steaks - thick cut
Fresh cooked, center cut bacon
Blue cheese crumbles

Marinade
1/2 cup olive oil
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
3 teaspoons dried basil
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 tablespoon grated black pepper

Mix well in blender, or whisk.
Coat steaks in marinade all day. Make sure entire steak is covered in marinade bath.
Cook bacon, and allow to cool
After marinating is complete. Slice the steaks in the center, but leave other side of steak closed.
Stuff a piece of bacon, and blue cheese crumbles inside, and push back together. This is messy with all the marinade on it. So, you might want to wear gloves during this step.
In an iron skillet if you have one. Sear the steaks on both sides. Don't cook them, only brown them on both sides.
Place the stuffed seared steaks in a broiling pan. Top the steaks with bacon & blue cheese crumbles.
Broil until it reaches the level of your preference of rare to well done.

A great way to add a nice zest to a steak!
