- Combine rub ingredients; press evenly onto beef steaks; set aside.
- Step 6 suggests seasoning with salt after grilling.
- I like to season prior, so if you do also, add salt to rub.
- Remove corn from water.
- Place over medium, ash-covered coals; grill, uncovered, 20 to 30 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, covered, 15 to 25 minutes) or until tender, turning occasionally.
- Place steaks over medium, ash-covered coals.
- Grill, uncovered, 13 to 16 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, covered, 8 to 13 minutes) for medium rare (145 degrees on an instant-read thermometer) to medium (160 degrees) doneness, turning occasionally.
