Flank Steak Stuffed With Sausage, Basil, and Cheese image

For the fall there is nothing like a crock-pot cooking a hearty dish. This recipe is a classic when combined with buttered steamed spinach, oven roasted potatoes, and a full flavored red wine such as Barola, a Rhone, or a California Merlot.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. The steak is always cooked perfectly and the stuffing is delicious. I love that I can make it ahead of time and just pop it in the oven when I'm ready to serve.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time I make it.
