DRY-RUBBED LONDON BROIL



Dry-Rubbed London Broil image

Here is a cheap beef dinner of uncommon flavor, perfect for serving to a crowd. It calls for the process known as indirect grilling, in which you build a fire on one side of your grill and cook on the other, so that the dry-rubbed meat is never in direct contact with flame. (If you grill the meat directly, the sugar and spices will burn rather than melt into appetizing darkness.) The recipe is forgiving. You might add granulated onion or garlic powder to it, or omit the coriander if you don't have any. Be careful with the paprika as there are so many different varieties afoot: if it's smoked, you'll need less, and if it's fiery you may need less cayenne. (No cayenne? Use red pepper flakes.) Adjust the seasonings to your taste.

Categories     dinner, roasts, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 London broil, top round or flank steak, approximately 2 1/2 pounds, about 1-inch thick
1/2 cup paprika, or 1/3 cup smoked paprika
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup chile powder
3 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground coriander
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Make the dry rub. Combine all ingredients except the meat in a bowl and mix well with a fork to break up the sugar and combine the spices. (Mixture will keep in an airtight container, out of the light, for a few months.)
  • Build a fire in your grill, leaving about 1/3 of grill free of coals, or set a gas grill to high, leaving one of the burners unlit.
  • Apply the dry rub to the exterior of the London broil, massaging it into the meat. When coals are covered with gray ash and fire is still quite high (you can hold your hand 5 inches above coals for only a couple of seconds), place the London broil on the cool side of the grill. Cover the grill and let cook for 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Uncover the grill, turn the meat over and repeat on the other side for 8 to 10 minutes more, for medium-rare meat. Let the meat sit on a cutting board for 5 minutes or so before slicing.

PEPPER-CRUSTED STEAK WITH HORSERADISH CREAM ON GRILLED GARLIC CROSTINI



Pepper-Crusted Steak with Horseradish Cream on Grilled Garlic Crostini image

Provided by Serena Bass

Categories     Beef     Broil     Marinate     Cocktail Party     Quick & Easy     Fall     Spring     Grill/Barbecue

Yield Makes 20 hors d'oeuvres, with leftovers for delicious sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 10

The Beef Marinade
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns, cracked (I fold them in a paper towel and bash them with a hammer)
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary leaves
1/3 cup olive oil
2 pounds London broil (top sirloin), cut 1 1/2 inches thick
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Grilled Garlic Crostini
Horseradish Cream

Steps:

  • Combine the garlic, hot red pepper flakes, peppercorns, rosemary, and olive oil in a Zip-loc bag. Add the beef, coating it with the marinade. Squeeze all the air out of the bag so the beef is enveloped by the marinade, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
  • Preheat the grill or broiler for 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle the steak with the salt and grill or broil to rare or medium rare, depending on your preference.
  • The cooking time will depend on the thickness and temperature of the beef, so push at the steak with your finger, and if it still feels totally raw in the middle, give it a little longer.
  • This is one of the things that cooks just need to intuit and learn to read the silent signs. Better under than overcooked, so check often, and if your finger defeats you, cut the steak with a knife and have a look. Let the steak rest for at least an hour, to get the juices back into the meat, then cut into short, very thin slices. (The best knife for slicing is a bread knife with wavy rather than pointed teeth, which cuts through beef amazingly well.) Serve on Grilled Garlic Crostini.
  • Arrange a few shaved slices of beef on each piece of bread, top with a pungent dot of Horseradish Cream, scatter with minced Italian parsley, and dust on a little kosher salt.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of meat: London broil is a relatively thin cut of beef that is best cooked quickly over high heat. Look for a piece of meat that is about 1 inch thick and has a good amount of marbling.
  • Prepare the meat properly: Before cooking, make sure to trim any excess fat from the meat and score it with a sharp knife. This will help the marinade penetrate the meat and cook it evenly.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives London broil its unique flavor. There are many different marinade recipes to choose from, so experiment until you find one that you like. Some popular ingredients include olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, and rosemary.
  • Cook the meat over high heat: London broil is best cooked over high heat. This will help to sear the meat and lock in the juices. Cook the meat for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the meat rest before slicing: Once the meat is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat and make it more tender.

Conclusion:

Pepper-crusted London broil is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The key to making a great London broil is to choose the right cut of meat, prepare it properly, and cook it over high heat. With these tips, you can easily make a restaurant-quality London broil at home.
