Start by preparing your sirloin steak. Pat the steak dry with paper towels and coat it evenly with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub this seasoning mixture all over the steak, ensuring even coverage.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Allow it to warm up for about 5 minutes to get good searing marks on the steak.
Place the steak on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer a different doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium).
Once cooked to your desired level, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and keeps the steak tender.
While the steak is resting, slice the burger buns in half and spread a thin layer of butter on the insides.
Toast the buttered sides of the buns on the grill or in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Thinly slice the rested steak against the grain into strips. Toss the steak strips with 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce until fully coated.
Assemble the sandwiches: Place a leaf of lettuce on the bottom half of each bun, followed by slices of tomato, red onion, and pickles (if using).
Top the veggies with a generous portion of BBQ steak strips and place the top half of the bun over the filling.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, potato salad, or fries.
