Grilled Sirloin Tips with Coffee-Bourbon BBQ Sauce

• Soak skewers in water for 30 minutes before cooking.

Coffee-Bourbon BBQ Sauce Marinade

• In small saucepan, add olive oil. Once oil is hot, add garlic and onions, and sauté on medium heat until translucent.
• Add brown sugar and molasses and stir until melting. Add sherry vinegar, coffee, bourbon kosher salt and ground black pepper, then reduce by half.
• Add tomato sauce and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Cool sauce completely.

Grilling

• Marinate steak tips in sauce for 5 minutes.
• Place tips on skewers. Remove any excess marinade.
• Preheat grill. If using open flame, wait for flames to die down. Right before grilling, make sure grill surface is extremely hot, then rub it down with an oil-soaked rag – we advise using tongs to hold the rolled-up rag.
• For medium, place Sirloin Steak Tips at 45° angle across hottest part of the grill grates, then grill for 5 minutes per side, while rotating 90° every 2 ½ minutes. Keep your meat moving to ensure that it cooks evenly. Remove from grill when meat thermometer inserted into thickest part reads 130°F.
• Rest for at least 8 minutes.
