Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F (190°C).
Remove any loose or dark green outer leaves from the cabbage. Rinse the cabbage under cold water and pat dry.
Slice the cabbage into 1-inch thick steaks. Depending on the size of the cabbage, you should get about 4 to 5 steaks.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Brush each side of the cabbage steaks generously with the olive oil mixture, ensuring that they are well coated with the spices.
Place the cabbage steaks on the grill. Close the lid and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until you see char marks and the cabbage is tender. Be sure to turn the steaks gently to avoid breaking them.
Once cooked, remove the steaks from the grill and drizzle with lemon juice.
Serve warm, and enjoy your sugar-free grilled cabbage steaks as a side dish with a main course.
