Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Rub the New York strip steaks with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, black pepper, and finely minced garlic. Place a sprig of rosemary on each steak and press it gently into the meat. Let the steaks sit at room temperature while you make the relish.
Prick the eggplant all over with a fork. Place the eggplant and red bell pepper directly on the grill grates. Cook, turning occasionally, until the eggplant is soft and the skin of the bell pepper is charred, about 10-15 minutes.
Remove the grilled vegetables and let them cool slightly. Peel the charred skin from the bell pepper and eggplant, then dice both finely.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add finely chopped red onion and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
Stir in the diced eggplant and red pepper, followed by the lemon juice, smoked paprika, and cumin powder. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the flavors meld together. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley. Set aside.
Clean your grill grates and lightly oil them to prevent sticking. Place the steaks on the grill, rosemary side down. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust to your preferred doneness level.
Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes, tented loosely with foil to retain heat.
Serve the steaks with a generous spoonful of smoky eggplant relish on top or on the side. Garnish with additional rosemary if desired.
