London Broil

Not sure what to grill? Try a good old London Broil. Not only is this a very affordable cut of beef, it’s also really delicious. Here I made a simple marinade and let it marinade for 8 hours. It’s even better to let it sit in this marinade for 24 hours. Always bring the meat to room temperature before grilling.

This marinade is enough for a London broil up to 3 lbs.

You’ll need:

• 1 cup of a dry red wine
• 6 garlic cloves smashed with the skin on
• 1 small onion minced
• 1 tbs dry oregano
• 1 tbs dry basil (I used fresh because I had it)
• 1 tsp dry or fresh thyme
• 1 tbs Dijon mustard
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tsp black cracked pepper

Directions:

1. Whisk all this together in a bowl and let that sit in the fridge for an hour
2. Then whisk it again and add it to a large zip plastic bag
3. Take the London Broil and poke holes in both sides with a fork
4. Then place it in the plastic bag with the marinade
5. Remove as much air as possible and zip it shut
6. Place in the fridge for 4-24 hours
7. Pre heat your grill to high
8. Remove the London Broil from the marinade and dry both sides with a paper towel and allow it to come to room temperature this will take about 30 minutes
9. Brush a little canola or vegetable oil on both sides of the meat and season with salt n pepper and place on the grill
10. Don’t touch it for 5 minutes
11. Flip and grill the other side
12. For a med/rare look for 130 degrees w a thermometer
13. Let rest for 10-15 min before slicing

London Broil is one of those cuts of meat many of us pass on, but I am telling you give it another try with my marinade and you will be hooked for life.
