Lay the portobellos and onions in a single layer on a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil. Drizzle with oil and vinegar then put in the oven and roast for 10 minutes. Remove the steak to a cutting board. Let rest for 5 minutes then slice the steak thinly against the grain.

Steps:

• Make marinade:
• In a small bowl whisk together marinade ingredients. Put half of mushroom caps and half of marinade in each of 2 large sealable plastic bags, arranging mushroom caps in one layer, and seal bags, pressing out excess air. Marinate mushrooms at room temperature, turning bags over several times, at least 1 and up to 2 hours.
• Make Gorgonzola butter while mushrooms are marinating:
• On a plate with a fork mash Gorgonzola and butter together until blended well.
• Make red pepper vinaigrette:
• In a blender blend vinaigrette ingredients with salt and pepper to taste until smooth and emulsified.
• Prepare grill.
• Grill one side of bread on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until golden, about 1 minute. (Alternatively, bread may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Divide bread, toasted sides down, among 4 plates. Spread soft side of bread with Gorgonzola butter.
• Remove mushrooms from marinade and grill 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until tender. (Alternatively, mushrooms may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Transfer mushrooms with tongs to a cutting board and slice thin.
• Arrange warm mushrooms on toasts and spoon vinaigrette over each open-faced sandwich. Garnish sandwiches with thyme.
• To roast peppers:
• Using a long-handled fork char peppers over an open flame, turning, until skins are blackened, 2 to 3 minutes. (Or broil peppers on rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler about 2 inches from heat, turning every 5 minutes, until skins are blistered and charred, 15 to 25 minutes.) Transfer peppers to a bowl and let stand, covered, until cool enough to handle. Keeping peppers whole, peel them, starting at blossom end. Cut off tops and discard seeds and ribs. (Wear rubber gloves when handling chilies.)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat in a large pan or skillet (avoid the nonstick ones if you can help it). Add the onions and turn the heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring INfrequently (that's right, just relax and let 'em do their thing) until the onions are a deep golden-brown color, approximately 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside. While the onions carmelize, clean the mushroom caps. On a cookie sheet, drizzle the mushrooms with olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast at 400 for 8 - 10 minutes until they have reduced in size a little bit and look "roasty toasty." Slice the ciabatta rolls in half, drizzle 'em with olive oil and -lightly- toast 'em in the oven. On each roll, layer a smear, slice, or dollop of goat cheese; carmelized onions; 1 portobello cap; and a fluff of arugula. Drizzle the arugula with balsamic vinegar and top with the next slice of ciabatta. You know, like a sandwich... Because we're making sandwiches here... Don't look at me like that. I could eat these things all day.
