Grilled London Broil Recipes FAQs
London Broil actually refers to a method of cooking steak that involves marinating, grilling, and thinly slicing the beef. It is usually known as flank or top round steak that is marinated overnight. This technique is perfect for making the most affordable steaks as tender as more expensive cuts, so it's a great choice for entertaining!
I like to grill my London broil steak at about 400°F. This gives it a delicious sear on the outside but keeps it tender and juicy with the perfect temperature on the inside. High heat is the key to the perfect London Broil.
You will need at least ½ a pound of meat per person. This recipe calls for a 2 to 2½ lb. steak and feeds approximately 4 people.
When marinated and grilled at the perfect temperate of 400°, London Broil will melt in your mouth!
Grilled London Broil Recipe Substitutions
The best part about this London Broil on the grill marinade is that you can swap out ingredients if you have some on hand but not others. Here are some substitution choices:

- Vegetable oil instead of olive oil
- Freshly minced garlic or garlic paste instead of garlic powder
- Red wine vinegar instead of balsamic vinegar
- Honey or a mix of white sugar and maple syrup instead of brown sugar
- Ground allspice, cinnamon, or nutmeg instead of ginger

How to Tenderize London Broil
The best way to tenderize steak is to marinate it in the most delicious flavors. I whipped up a beautiful marinade to use in this dish, and let it marinate for at least 4 hours ahead of time.
My recommendation is to let it marinate overnight for perfectly tender steak the next day.
Asian Sauce for Grilled London Broil
The best part of this recipe is that you can quickly heat up the marinade and turn it into an amazing sauce! No extra work and no wasted marinade. This Asian Sauce is so delicious!
Just add the remaining marinade and simmer it on low until it is reduced to a delicious thick sauce. It is so good drizzled over the grilled London broil.
