Preheat the grill over high heat (approximately 500 degrees F). You want the grill to be hot to get a good sear on the steaks.
Make sure that the steaks are dry and are at room temperature.
Combine the garlic powder, salt and pepper together in a small bowl. Then season the steaks with the seasoning mixture.
Rub the grill grates with the oil .
Place the steaks on the grill. Let them cook for approximately 5 minutes with the lid closed and do not move them to get a good sear on the steaks.
Then use tongs to gently lift and flip the steak. If the steaks are still sticking to the grill, this means that they need more time and they are not ready to flip yet.
Flip the steaks onto a separate section of the grill. Then cook the steaks for 5 more minutes to sear the opposite side of the steaks. This cook time is generally ideal for medium-rare steaks.
Then reduce the temperature on the grill to medium heat. Cook the steak until they are done to your preference.
Use an instant read meat thermometer to check the steak temperature. The recipe notes have the internal temperature for each steak preference listed.
Let the steak rest for 10 minutes and then they are ready to serve warm and then enjoy!
