London broil is such an underated cut of beef. Many people cook them too long or don’t lean on them hard enough with the seasonings. This is a dense cut of beef that can stand up to a full bodied marinade or dry rub. This cut is quickly becoming one of my absolute favorites. one, for its normally cheaper price and two the amazing flavors you can pair with this cut. I have a feeling that you will have this as often as you can, and the kids will love it too.
When we were developing this recipe we wanted to have a cut of beef thats often cooked wrongly and one that is able to stand up to a complex sweet savory and little back end heat flavor explosion and london broil was most desidedly that cut. London Broil is also known as flank steak, top blade, or top round. These are dense cuts with little fat marbling which means these cuts should be cooked more like a regular NY strip, or filets. The longer they cook the dryer the cut gets so you want a medium rare to medium finish temperature.
These cuts are amazing for strong marinades. We did an amazing fajita recipe that works amazingly well for taco Tuesday and every day. But back to the task at hand. This cut was cooked on screaming hot Grillgrates, which aren’t required but they can helo elevate the temperature of the cooking surface by 100+ degrees depending on the cooker. You want to sear this off at 600 degrees if you can get it and maintain it. Hense the suggestion to use the grates.
