TO MAKE THE SAUCE: In a large saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the ancho chiles and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour in the red wine, orange juice, ketchup and balsamic vinegar. Stir. Simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, cover and allow to steep for 30 minutes. Pour into a blender and puree until smooth.
TO MAKE THE PASTE: In a small bowl mix together the paste ingredients.
Allow the steaks to stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling. Spread the paste evenly over the steaks. Follow the grill's instructions for using wood chips. Sear the steaks over Direct High heat for about 6 minutes, turning once halfway through searing time. Continue grilling over Indirect Medium heat until the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 160°F, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the grill, cover with foil, and allow to rest for about 5 minutes. Serve warm with the sauce.
