What each ingredient does

Beefsteak
Wraps the stuffing and becomes tender and savory as it roasts.
Stuffing
Fills the roll, adding flavor and moisture to the inside of the meat.

The step that matters

Tying the roll tightly. A tight tie keeps the stuffing inside the beef while it cooks, so it does not fall out or leave gaps in the roll.
