"London broil" is a name that butchers
often give to top round roast, flank
steak, or skirt steak. This budget-
friendly beef is a lean-muscle cut, which
tends to be tougher than other cuts
thanks to its low fat content. The typical
preparation of London broil includes
marinating the meat for several hours,
followed by high-heat searing in an oven
broiler or on an outdoor grill. The meat is
cut across the grain and served in thin
slices.

THE THICKNESS OF
T H E M E AT
Sizes of London broil can differ, but most
butchers cut the meat to about 12-
inches long and 2-inches thick, weighing
about 2 lbs. If your meat is thicker than
that, just plan to cook it a bit longer. A
meat thermometer is the best way to
determine when the steak is done, since
you know it will be perfect when it
reaches an internal temperature of 135°
F for medium-rare meat.

MARINADE FOR
LO N D O N B R O I L
This London Broil Marinade is a great
option when you crave a grilled (or
broiled) steak, but you also want to make
healthy choices. A serving of the meat
and marinade is high in protein, low in
carbs, and low in fat. It's perfect during
the summer on a salad with sliced
tomatoes and crumbled blue cheese, but
it's equally delicious in the middle of
winter if you cook it under the broiler.

1. Whisk together all of the marinade

ingredients.

2. Pour into a Ziploc bag or a large

dish.

3. Add the London broil, toss to coat

the meat in the marinade, and cover
or seal.

4. Refrigerate and let the meat

marinate for at least 4 hours, or up to
2 days. Occasionally toss the meat in
the marinade to make sure that the
marinade is evenly distributed on the
steak.

5. Remove the meat from the

marinade, discard the marinade, and
pat the meat dry.

6. Cook on the grill or under the broiler

until the meat reaches the desired
temperature -- about 125-130° F for
rare (a cool red center), 135° F for
medium-rare (a warm red center), or
145° F for medium (a warm pink
center).

DONE
Exact cooking times will vary depending
on the size, thickness, and temperature
of your meat when you cook it. As a
result, a meat thermometer is the best
way to know when your London broil is
done. It should be 125-130° F for rare (a
cool red center), 135° F for medium-rare
(a warm red center), or 145° F for
medium (a warm pink center).

CA N I F R E E Z E LO N D O N
BROIL IN MARINADE?
No, I do not recommend freezing the raw
steak in the marinade. Extended
exposure to the acids in the marinade,
combined with damage from ice crystals,
can cause the meat to become mushy.

T I P S F O R T H E B E ST
LO N D O N B R O I L
MARINADE
The brown sugar in this marinade
helps create a nice sear on the
outside of the steak, but it also
makes it easier for the meat to burn.
As a result, it's best to grill the
steak for about 4 minutes per side
over direct heat (to get those nice
grill marks), but then move the steak
to indirect heat for the rest of the
cooking time (to prevent burning).
