Instructions
1
In a small bowl, combine 2 teaspoons of brown sugar, chili powder, ground cumin, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to create your spice rub.
2
Spray a small saucepan with nonstick cooking spray and place it over medium-low heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 4 minutes, stirring frequently.
3
Once the onion is softened, add 1 tablespoon of the spice mixture, the remaining 1 teaspoon of brown sugar, ketchup, water, steak sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a boil.
4
Once boiling, reduce the heat and cover the saucepan. Let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the flavors meld together. After 10 minutes, set the sauce aside, keeping it warm.
5
Prepare your grill by spraying the rack with nonstick spray and heating it to medium-high or preparing a medium-hot fire.
6
Rub the remaining spice mixture evenly over both sides of the boneless top sirloin steaks.
7
Place the steaks on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until an instant-read thermometer reads 130°F when inserted into the side of each steak.
8
Once cooked, transfer the steaks to a platter, cover them loosely with foil, and let them rest for 5 minutes. The internal temperature will rise to approximately 135°F for a perfect medium-rare finish.
9
Serve the steaks warm with the BBQ sauce drizzled on top or on the side.
