To cook London broil in the oven:

  1. Marinate the London broil for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight using a marinade of choice (e.g., beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar).
  2. Preheat the broiler to high.
  3. Remove the meat from the marinade and pat dry. Rub with butter, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  4. Place the London broil in a baking dish and broil for about 15 minutes on one side.
  5. Flip the meat and broil for another 15 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 125°F for medium-rare.
  6. Remove from the oven, cover with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes.
  7. Slice thinly against the grain and serve.

Alternatively, you can sear the London broil in a hot skillet first for a crust, then bake it in a 400°F oven for 10-15 minutes depending on your preferred doneness. Rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Cooking times and temperatures for doneness:

  • Rare: 120°F
  • Medium-rare: 130°F
  • Medium: 135°F
  • Medium-well: 140°F
  • Well-done: 150°F.

This method ensures a flavorful, tender, and juicy London broil cooked in the oven.
