Ingredients

  • 1 untreated cedar plank (14x7x1 inch)
  • 1 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • 1-1/2 tsp. chili powder
  • 1 tsp. ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • 1 boneless beef sirloin steak (1-1/2 lb.), 3/4 inch thick
  • 1 Tbsp. oil
  • 3/4 cup HEINZ BBQ Sauce Classic Sweet & Thick, divided

Preparation

Step 1

Immerse plank in water, placing a weight on top of plank to keep it submerged. Soak 4 hours. About 1-1/2 hours before ready to grill the steak, combine sugar and seasonings; rub onto both sides of steak. Refrigerate until ready to grill.

Heat grill to high heat. Grill steak 2 min. on each side; remove from grill. Remove plank from water; brush top of plank with oil. Top with steak. Place on grill grate; cover with lid. Reduce grill to medium heat.

Grill 15 min. or until steak is medium doneness (160ºF), brushing with 1/4 cup barbecue sauce after 10 min. Remove steak from grill; discard plank. Cover steak loosely with foil; let stand 5 min.

Cut steak across the grain into thin slices. Serve with remaining barbecue sauce.
