Ingredients
- 2.5 lb Top Sirloin (Pana) with Fat Cap (Trimmed, fat cap left intact for rendering)
- 2 tbsp Swine Life Beef Rub (Store‑bought BBQ rub, adds deep flavor)
- 1 tbsp Steak Rub (Coarse salt and pepper blend for extra texture)

Instructions
Preheat Grill
Set up the Outlaw Ringo grill for indirect heat and preheat to 275°F, placing coals on one side and leaving the opposite side empty for indirect cooking.

Season the Meat
Pat the sirloin dry, drizzle with olive oil, then coat evenly with Swine Life beef rub followed by the steak rub.
Time: PT10M
Rest the Seasoned Meat
Let the seasoned sirloin sit at room temperature for 30 minutes so the rub can melt into the meat.

Mid‑Cook Temperature Check
After about 45 minutes, insert the probe thermometer into the thickest part of the meat to monitor internal temperature.

Remove at Target Temperature

Time: PT5M
Rest the Steak
Tent the steak loosely with aluminum foil and let it rest for 10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
