Special Precautions and Tips:
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure steaks are cooked to your desired doneness.
- If you don't have Gorgonzola cheese on hand, you can substitute with another blue cheese such as Roquefort or Stilton.
- Resting the steaks allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender meat.
