While I was planning for Saturday's Date Nights and Dinner Parties here at The Slow Roasted Italian I decided to have London Broil. A very nice lean cut of beef, when prepared properly it can be very impressive and delicious!
This same day I was on The Cafe Sucre Farine's blog and ran across a post I had read a while back. All about grilling London broil after "marinating" it in salt and a tight wrap. It is amazing, the concept of the salt drawing out the juice and the tight plastic wrap forcing the juice back in.
Well, I was a little apprehensive after I read that the perfect London Broil is cooked to medium rare. Anything more is over cooked. I do have a tendency to try and massacre all my meat. Consciously I don't want to. But something happens when self doubt creeps in during the cooking process. I would end up with a very 'brown' piece of meat. Kind of like eating shoe leather.
Well I have to tell you that this time was different. I followed the recipe to a T and the Grilled London Broil was so amazing. It was a perfect shade of grilled on the outside with delicious caramelized grill marks on the outside. It was so lush and juicy. A bit more cooked than medium rare, but unbelievable!
