Step-by-step
- MIx all the ingredients, being sure that the dry mustard is mixed well.
- Put London Broil in a gallon size plastic bag.
- Pour marinade over meat.
- Marinade for at least 4 hours, overnight is better.
- Turn over every couple of hours.
- Let the meat warm to room temperature before grilling or broiling.
- Discard marinade.
Throwing lean beef straight into a hot pan without proper chemical breakdown results in a tough, unchewable cut that resists every attempt at slicing. Transforming inexpensive top round requires utilizing an acidic and salty soaking liquid that penetrates muscle fibers effectively before high-heat cooking begins.
- Whisk the vegetable oil and soy sauce thoroughly with the ground ginger, dry mustard, and garlic powder until the mustard disperses completely without forming lumps.
- Submerge the meat inside a gallon-sized plastic bag to ensure maximum surface contact while minimizing the volume of liquid required.
- Allow the beef to absorb the flavors in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours, though letting it rest overnight yields deeper penetration.
- Rotate the bag every two hours during the soaking phase to distribute the oil and seasonings evenly across all surfaces.
- Remove the meat from refrigeration 30 minutes prior to cooking so it reaches room temperature, preventing the outer layers from overcooking before the center warms.
- Discard the used liquid entirely to prevent cross-contamination from raw meat.
Slicing any remaining cooked beef thinly against the grain creates tender strips that work well in sandwiches or grain bowls the following day. Storing leftover cooked meat in an airtight container in the refrigerator preserves quality for up to three days.
