Ingredients
For the steak:
- 4 large cloves garlic, chopped
- 3 sprigs rosemary, leaves roughly chopped (about 1 tablespoon)
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup red wine
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 2-inch-thick piece beef top round for London broil (about 3 pounds)
- Kosher salt
For the marmalade:
- 4 medium red onions, halved and thinly sliced
- 3 sprigs rosemary, leaves chopped (about 1 tablespoon)
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
For the toast:
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 8 tablespoons butter, softened
- 8 3/4-inch-thick slices good quality white or sourdough bread
- 1 bunch arugula, washed and trimmed
- Mustard and/or horseradish
Directions
For the meat: Mix garlic, rosemary, balsamic vinegar, wine, olive oil, and black pepper to taste in a self-sealing plastic bag or a shallow dish. Add the meat, turning to coat, and cover or seal. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
Prepare an outdoor grill with a hot fire for indirect grilling.
For the marmalade: On a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil (or a doubled piece of regular), toss the onions with the rest of the marmalade ingredients. Bring edges of foil up and crimp closed. Place package on the edge of the grill (over medium-high heat). Cook, turning the sealed package every now and then so the onions cook evenly until meltingly tender, about 45 minutes.
Remove the meat from the marinade, pat it dry, and season generously with salt and black pepper to taste. Lightly oil the grill and sear the meat over high heat for 5 minutes. Then rotate it (don't turn it over yet) about 45 degrees from its original spot on the grill. Once you've made your grill mark, flip and repeat on the other side. Move the steak to the cooler side of the grill, cover with an aluminum pan, and cook, rotating (not flipping) periodically, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the steak registers 125 degree sF, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let steak rest on a cutting board about 10 minutes.
For the toast: Meanwhile, sprinkle garlic cloves with salt. With the flat side of a large knife, mash and smear garlic mixture into a paste. Mix with the butter. Lightly oil the grill, place bread over direct heat, and toast on both sides until golden brown, about 2 minutes total. Remove bread from grill and spread generously with the garlic butter. Thinly slice steak against the grain on an angle. Top toasts with onion marmalade, arugula, and sliced meat. Serve open-faced with mustard and/or horseradish.

So good! Marmalade was amazing, I agree with the review before mine, it would go great on burgers or even chicken! I didn't make the toast but the steak was fantastic too! I had to substitute the balsamic vinegar for balsamic vinegrette, and fresh rosemary for dried but other then that I followed the recipe exactly. The steak was perfectly juicy and seasoned and the marmalade went great on it. We will be making this again for sure!

Having never made a marmalade I thought it might go great with burgers...and it is perfectly amazing. Later I put my own spin on the marmalde by adding fresh crushed pineapples and a small amount of red pepper flakes. I think this adds with the sweet and the spice. The marmalade also looks good sitting on top of the beef burger. Instead of using a grill I used a dutch oven on medium for 45 minutes stirring every 5 or 10.

It is a tough cut of meat, but the marinade and the onions are amazing! will do again with something more tender!
