    Marinade for London Broil

    Easily transform an affordable steak into a savory, juicy, and tender piece of meat your whole family will devour with my easy marinade for London broil. My marinade is made with a blend of olive oil, lemon juice, and balsamic vinegar and packed with spices!

    This easy London broil marinade comes together in just 5 minutes, and you're left with a tender, flavorful piece of meat every single time. You can also easily prepare it ahead of time so you have it on hand when you're ready to marinate steak!

    Although this marinade pairs perfectly with my London Broil on the Grill (London broil marinade recipes don't get any better than this!), you can use it for much more. Try it with other cuts of beef, and enjoy!

    Best Marinade for London Broil Tips

    • You can make this a gluten-free marinade for steak by replacing soy sauce with tamari or coconut aminos.
    • Low-sodium soy sauce may also be used.
    • Rice vinegar or white wine vinegar may be used in place of balsamic vinegar.
    • Instead of garlic powder, you can also use fresh garlic or garlic paste.
    • Honey or a mixture of white sugar and maple syrup make a good replacement for brown sugar.
    • Allspice, cinnamon, or nutmeg make a good replacement for ginger.
    • I love the spice added by red pepper flakes, but they are totally optional if you enjoy less spice.

    London Broil Marinade Storing Tips

    • Refrigerator: London broil marinade can be stored in an airtight container placed in the fridge for up to 5 days. Making it the perfect marinade to prepare in advance if you're entertaining a crowd!
    • Freezer: Store London broil marinade in the freezer in an airtight container for up to 2 months.

    London Broil Marinade Recipes FAQs

    Should I tenderize London Broil before marinating?

    If your cut of meat is especially tough, you may want to tenderize it with a meat mallet before marinating. See: how to tenderize steak. However, marinating is generally all you need to make London Broil tender, so you shouldn't have to tenderize it beforehand.

    Can you marinate London Broil too long?

    London Broil should be left to marinate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Do not marinate for longer than 1-2 days or the fibers of the meat will begin to break down too much and become mushy.
