in a small bowl or jar combine kosher salt, black pepper, granulated onion, granulated garlic, and ground cumin.
Brush the sirloin cap on all sides with 1 tablespoon of avocado oil then liberally season the sirloin cap with seasoning blend.
Once the grill is up to temperature place the beef roast on the grill fat cap side up. Cook for about 90 minutes to 2 hours until the roast reaches an internal temperature of 120 degrees F.
