3. London Broil

Preparation Time: 20 Minutes

Cooking Time: 16 Minutes

Servings: 4

Ingredients:

• 1 (1½- to 2-pound) London broil or top round steak
• ¼ cup of soy sauce
• Two tablespoons white wine
• Two tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• ¼ cup chopped scallions
• Two tablespoons packed brown sugar
• Two garlic cloves, minced
• Two teaspoons red pepper flakes
• One teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

1. Using a meat mallet, pound the steak lightly all over on both sides to break down its fibers and tenderize. You are not trying to pound down the thickness.
2. In a medium bowl, make the marinade by combining the soy sauce, white wine, olive oil, scallions, brown sugar, garlic, red pepper flakes, and black pepper.
3. Put the steak in a shallow plastic container with a lid and pour the marinade over the meat. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours.
4. Stock your smoker with wood pellets and follow the manufacturer’s specific start-up guidelines.
5. Preheat, with the lid shut, to 350°F.
6. Place the steak directly on the grill, close the lid, and smoke for 6 minutes.
7. Flip, then smoke with the lid closed for 6 to 10 minutes more, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the meat reads 130°F for medium-rare.
8. The meat’s temperature will rise by about 5 degrees while it rests.
