Have you cooked one this way? I think I'd like to try it.

I have never heard of "London Broil", but after googling, I have to say..... it looks bloody delicious! And I think it would work in the air fryer, as long as you're careful not to overcook it. I tell you what, you try it then let me know how it goes, then I will give it a try! Although I'm sure if I went to my butcher and asked for "a London Broil round steak" he would look at me like  !

I would say to marinate or do a rub, which includes salt to bring out the juices. Make sure meat is at room temp before starting to cook. And watch it so you don't over cook. And always, cut across the grain prior to serving.
Let us know how it goes if you try it.

Not a cut of meat that I am familiar with. Along with Londoners I imagine.
Looks delicious.

London Broil steak is on our regular rotation of meals. Score it, pop it in a bag to marinate in oil, kosher salt, and red wine vinegar...it's SO good!
But I have never tried it in an air fryer. Let us know how it goes.

it's a tough cut of meat. it will cook in an air fryer but it will still come out a bit tough and drier. to me, london broil needs a slow-and-slow kind of cooking method.

I have never cooked London broil low and slow. We usually bbq it high and quick lol. A nice medium rare. Yes it can be tough, that’s why you cut against the grain and don’t cook it to death.

I use a meat tenderizing mallet and marinate overnight. Then I cook it super fast, like an air fryer or on the grill. On the grill it’s 2 minutes per side. As long as you slice it across the grain, it’s tender.

I have used London broil for pot-roast-type recipes when I couldn’t get chuck roast. It came out pretty good, which makes me leery to treat it as a regular steak.  ETA those of you who haven’t heard of it in your part of the world, I think it’s just a top round steak. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_broil
