The Best London Broil Recipe
  1. Pound steak with a meat mallet or side of a can to tenderize.

  2. Whisk marinade ingredients together in a freezer size Ziploc bag. Reserve 2 tablespoons to use later. Add steak, press out excess air and seal. Massage marinade into the steak with your hands through the outside of the bag.

  3. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 4 hours or up to 12 hours (the longer the better). Meanwhile make the herb butter (instructions to follow).

  4. When ready to cook, remove the steak from the marinade and place it in a foil lined baking dish and let rest at least 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat broiler to high heat (550 degrees F) for 10 minutes.

  5. Broil steak 6 inches away from the boiler for 5-7 minutes per side (up to 8 minutes for extra thick steak), or until an internal thermometer reads 130-135 degrees F for medium rare or 140-145 degrees for medium. Broiling times WILL VARY depending on thickness of your steak so use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.

  6. Remove the steak to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Slice steak into strips across the grain (perpendicular to the long strands). Drizzle with the 2 tablespoons reserved marinade and serve with herb butter.

  7. Meanwhile, make Herb Butter by mashing all of the Herb Butter ingredients together in a medium bowl until blended. Transfer to a piece of plastic wrap and form into a log as your roll up the plastic wrap. Twist the ends of wrap to secure and place the butter in the refrigerator until firm (about 1 hour) or ready to use.
