Marinated & Grilled London Broil

London Broil Marinade

Per pound of beef use:
2 Tablespoons oil
2 Tablespoons water
1 Tablespoon red wine (or balsamic) vinegar
1 Tablespoon Montreal Steak Seasoning

Mix these ingredients together and marinate London broil for 6 to 24 hours. (By 48 hours meat is too heavily flavored.)

Remove from marinade and discard marinade, unless you cook it thoroughly.

Heat Broiling unit in oven, or grill. Broil or grill, turning once, until meat thermometer reads 145 degrees. Remove meat, and let rest 10 minutes. Slice thinly, against the grain. Served with mash potatoes this is comfort food! This is one of Tommy’s favorites! See grilling suggestions below.

(Adding the oil to the marinade is optional, it does however act as an insulator to the meat which has very little fat of its own. If you can tolerate the calories I’d add it. Pricking the meat with a fork will allow deeper penetration of the marinade. This method works best with shorter marinade times to prevent the marinade from overpowering the meats own flavors.)

London Broil Grilling Suggestions:

London broil roasts should be marinated for 6-24 hrs in an acidic marinade (red wine or balsamic vinegar and a steak seasoning blend works well). They then can be grilled (or broiled) till the center is medium-rare. When sliced thin against the grain these strips of steak are tender and flavorful. Grilling a roast works well for groups of people because the outside portions will provide fairly well-done slices while the interior will provide medium-rare or rare slices. This allows you to provide a variety of doneness without having to buy each individual a steak.
