Tender London Broil
Description
Tender London Broil begins with a whole London broil steak seasoned generously with salt and black pepper, then left at room temperature for an hour to improve tenderness and even cooking. Grilled over medium-high heat, the steak cooks for about 12 to 15 minutes total, reaching medium rare at 125°F internal temperature. The grilling includes rotating the steak by 45 degrees mid-cook on each side to create distinct cross-hatch marks.
After cooking, the meat is rested under foil for at least five minutes, allowing juices to settle and prevent loss when slicing. Cutting thin slices against the grain further enhances tenderness by shortening muscle fibers. The simple seasoning and grilling method highlight the beef’s natural flavor and texture.
This London broil serves well as a main course for a casual meal or sliced for sandwiches and salads. The straightforward approach requires minimal ingredients but focuses on proper temperature and slicing technique for the best eating experience.
