Description

This London Broil recipe transforms a tough cut of beef into a tender, flavorful centerpiece with a homemade BBQ rub. The blend of lemon pepper, garlic powder, black pepper, and a hint of cayenne creates a savory crust that locks in juices. Perfect for weeknight dinners or casual gatherings, this dish offers a robust, aromatic flavor profile that appeals to the whole family. The marination process is key, allowing the spices to penetrate the meat for maximum taste. Serve with simple sides like roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes to let the star ingredient shine. It is an easy, satisfying meal that brings home-style comfort to your table without requiring complex techniques or hard-to-find ingredients.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Combine lemon pepper, garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and paprika in a shallow dish large enough to hold the London broil.
  2. Coat the entire surface of the London broil with the spice rub mixture.
  3. Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap.
  4. Let the meat sit at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours, or refrigerate overnight for deeper flavor penetration.
  5. Remove the meat from the refrigerator if chilled, and let it come to room temperature.
  6. Pat the meat dry with paper towels, being careful not to remove the rub.
  7. Preheat a gas grill to high heat for 10 minutes.
  8. Reduce the grill heat to medium.
  9. Place the London broil on the center of the grill grate.
  10. Close the grill lid and cook for 10 to 15 minutes.
  11. Turn the meat over using tongs.
  12. Grill for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until cooked to your desired doneness (medium-rare recommended).
  13. Remove the meat from the grill and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Note

For charcoal grilling, start the coals and let them burn down until they are covered with light grey ash. Place the cooking rack approximately 6 inches from the coals and proceed with grilling as directed.

Always use tongs to handle the meat. Avoid piercing the London broil with a fork, as this releases valuable juices and can make the meat dry.

The meat may appear wet before grilling due to the marinade; patting it dry helps achieve a better sear.

Slicing against the grain is crucial for London broil, as it shortens the muscle fibers and makes the beef more tender.
