Tips for Making Perfect London Broil Tacos
Use a meat thermometer to make sure the steak is cooked perfectly. For a medium-rare steak, the temperature of the inside of the steak should be at least 135°F. For a medium steak, cook to at least 145°F.
Ensure that you slice the steak thinly against the grain. This helps tenderize it and makes it easy to handle.
