Place vinaigrette and figs in blender or food processor; process until blended, to make marinade. Place steaks and marinade in food-safe plastic bag; turn to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator at least 2 hours.

Remove steaks from marinade; discard marinade.

Place steaks on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 10 to 14 minutes for medium-rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally.

Season with salt and pepper, as desired.

Meanwhile, to make sauce, heat cheese in small saucepan over medium-low heat 2 to 4 minutes or until melted, stirring frequently.

Serve steaks with cheese sauce.

Makes 4 servings.
