1.2 tsp Black Pepper

3. Remove asparagus and immediately submerge in ice water bath until completely chilled.
4. Drain asparagus and pat dry. Reserve chilled.
5. Thinly slice flank against the grain on a steep bias for wide, flat, thin slices. Salt and Pepper lightly. Reserve chilled.

For Rolls

2. Continue with remaining slice and asparagus.
3. Lightly oil and season with salt and pepper again.
4. Grill for 2-4 minutes each side, depending on desired temperature. Note: Asparagus is cooked and meat is thin, this will cook quickly.
