GRILLED LONDON BROIL 
1 london broil, 2-4 lbs trimmed
1 bottle red wine
ground black pepper
meat tenderizer

For a lean steak entree, take one London Broil that has been trimmed of excess fat. Place meat in a glass/Pyrex cooking dish, deep enough to accommodate meat and marinade and poke liberally with a dinner fork or score with a sharp knife. Pour enough red wine over meat to cover it, place a towel or cheese cloth over and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, (the longer the better).

Remove meat from marinade, discarding liquid, season with ground black pepper and tenderizer and place on grill until done to your liking. One London Broil will usually serve up to four people. Serve over rice or with grilled/baked potatoes and salad.

Total preparation time, approximately 10-15 minutes, cooking time is approximately 15-25 minutes depending upon thickness of cut, degree to which you like it cooked and the temperature of your grill.

Also works well in an oven heated to 450°F and wrapped in aluminum foil.

I love this recipe! thank you for sharing it! I am not a foodie, but a mom with a buh-zillion teens (rough estimate) going through my house at odd times on a daily basis. I don't have a lot of time to cook. This recipe is SO straight up and simple yet it leaves the cook with so many options for creativity if time (and energy) allows.

Many thanks to you!

A great starting point for a cut of meat that I typically avoid.

I used a sweet red wine and added some olive oil, Kitchen Bouquet and garlic powder to the marinade and repeatedly pierced with a thick serving fork throughout the day. After draining I used a commercial style meat tenderizer/piercer to incorporate the meat tenderizer.

Cooked over a very hot bed of coals I wound up with a very tender, nicely flavored, medium-rare and inexpensive meat dish.
