Top round is a lean and flavorful piece of meat from the beef round primal cut. It is easy on the budget and can be cooked in a few different ways. Also known as inside round, the top round is most often roasted whole and sliced for roast beef, but the meat is fabricated into steaks as well, making for the most tender steaks to come out of this tougher section. This cut tastes best marinated and cooked to between medium-rare and medium (135 F to 145 F).

The flavor is best if you allow the steak to marinate in the refrigerator for at least four hours, so make sure to plan ahead. This recipe outlines steps for cooking the top round steak on a charcoal or gas grill or under the broiler. You can also cook the steak in a skillet on the stovetop or with an electric grill pan. Slice the steak thinly against the grain, which shortens tough fibers and makes the meat more tender. Serve with garlic roasted potatoes and asparagus for a delicious meal.

"This top round recipe was really good. The marinade is easy to prepare using kitchen staples, which adds to its thriftiness. I marinated it for 6 hours and would not do less. When cooked for 6 minutes per side to medium-rare, the steak was nice and tender, unlike any round steak I've cooked before." —Colleen Graham

  3. Put the steak in a large food storage bag or nonreactive container and pour the marinade over. Seal the bag and turn it several times to coat the meat. Refrigerate the steak for 4 to 8 hours, flipping the bag over every so often to allow the marinade to cover both sides.

Broil the Steak

  1. Preheat the broiler. Remove the meat from the marinade, letting the excess drip off, and place on a baking sheet. Put on a rack about 2 to 3 inches from the heat source.

  2. Broil for 6 to 9 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the cut and your desired doneness.

Tip

  • To get a good sear on both sides, warm up the baking sheet under the broiler while preheating.

Grill the Steak

  1. Preheat a grill to medium and remove the meat from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Place the steak on the grill and cook for 5 to 10 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired doneness.

Tips

  • Top round is also sold cut thick and labeled London broil, or cut thin and marked as Swiss steak.
  • Flank steak makes an acceptable substitute for top round steak.

Steak Doneness Temperatures

To assure the steak is done to your liking, it's best to use a meat thermometer and remove the steak when it reads 3 to 5 degrees below the desired temperature as it will continue to rise as the meat rests. (The minimum safe temperature for fresh beef, pork, and lamb is 145 F.) Follow these guidelines for beef doneness:

  • Rare: 120 F to 125 F
  • Medium-Rare: 130 F to 135 F
  • Medium: 140 F to 145 F
  • Medium-Well: 150 F to 155 F
  • Well Done: 160 F and above
