Directions
Whisk together the paprika, ancho chili powder, mustard, fennel, salt
and pepper in a small bowl until combined.

Twenty minutes before grilling, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let sit, covered at room
temperature.

Preheat grill to high.

Brush the steaks on both sides with oil and season liberally with salt and black pepper. Rub 1 side
of each steak with 1 tablespoon of the rub. Place the steaks on the grill, rub-side down and let
cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the steak over and continue
grilling 4 to 5 minutes for medium-rare doneness (internal temperature 135 degrees F), medium
doneness (140 degrees F), medium-well doneness (150 degrees F). Remove the steaks to a cutting board
or platter, tent loosely with foil and let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with the Sherry
Vinegar Steak Sauce on the side.
