I really like London Broil… I had never had it until my husband made it when I was first married.... it’s been a family favorite ever since. What many people don’t realize that London Broil is not a cut of meat.. it’s a cooking method.
It is traditionally marinated for anywhere from 6 hours to 24 hours… a number of marinades are popular…
As for the cuts of meat that lend themselves well to this… I use a beef round (top round steak)… most butchers label it “for London Broil”…. I like it about 2 inches thick.
I have some tips …
TIPS
Turn the meat at least once …preferably a few times while it’s marinating.
Marinate at least 6 hours… overnight is best.
You can make this on the grill or under the broiler… figure about 5-7 minutes a side for rare meat… use a meat thermometer to best test if it is cooked to the desired doneness.
Slice it across the grain in to thin strips.
Leftovers make great sandwiches…
Marinade suggestions:
Balsamic Vinegar Marinade for London Broil
Spicy Brown Mustard Marinade for London Broil
Marsala Wine Marinade for London Broil
Serve with rice or potatoes and a vegetable or salad… a truly easy to make meal!

We used to eat a lot of London Broil, as we were big beef eaters at one time. Haven't had it in ages since I cut back on beef. It was so good, and I miss it.
