2 (1 pound) flat iron steaks, at room temperature
1 teaspoon dry beef bouillon powder
5 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
3 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon molasses
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried cilantro
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch dried rubbed sage

1
Rub steaks all over with beef bouillon powder.
2
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
3
Whisk olive oil, onion, garlic, chili powder, balsamic vinegar, lime juice, molasses, paprika, onion powder, cumin, cilantro, black pepper, and sage together in a shallow baking dish until marinade is thick and well-combined. Place steaks in marinade and turn to coat completely. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature to marinate meat, about 15 minutes.
4
Cook the steaks on the preheated grill, basting frequently with marinade, until steaks start to firm and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 6 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove steaks to a plate and let rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
