Grilled London Broil with Honey Glaze

Grilled London Broil with Honey Glaze

London broil may bring to mind Big Ben, double-decker buses and some royal drama: What a load of poppycock! I don’t mean to be cheeky, but this dish is 100 percent an American concoction, never to be found on a menu in the United Kingdom. “London broil” actually describes the way in which the meat is cooked—marinated, grilled and thinly sliced on the diagonal. Use this easy marinade to transform your cut into a perfectly tender piece of meat.

Is this dish worthy to serve to HRH the Queen of England? Yes. Yes, it is. And I’m not the only one who thinks so: It’s the most popular dish on my blog, with views and shares totaling more than 150,000 and counting. You’ll be the one wearing the crown when you serve it for dinner.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (240 ml) Italian salad dressing
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) soy sauce, regular or gluten free
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) honey
  • 1 (1½- to 2-pound [681- to 907-kg]) London broil or flank steak

Directions

  1. In a gallon-sized zip-top bag, mix the Italian dressing, soy sauce and honey.

  2. Add the London broil to the bag, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or up to overnight.

  3. When you’re ready to grill, preheat a grill to low heat. Remove the beef from the marinade, and grill for 12 minutes on each side for medium (4 minutes longer per side if you like it well done).

  4. Alternatively, you can cook the meat in the oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (191°C), and bake the beef in a disposable pan uncovered on the lowest rack for 30 minutes (give or take 10 minutes depending on preferred level of doneness).

  5. With this cut of meat, you want to let the meat sit covered for 5 to 10 minutes after cooking and before cutting to seal in the juices.
