London Broil ... Low and Slow or Sear? Tender ???

Options

Hey folks, Need advice please, read several posts here already but conflicted and confused. Whats the best way (Egg Temp and Internal Meat Temp) to do 4lbs/ 2 pcs of London Broil on the egg to achieve the best shot at tender and juicy ???  How do you guys do yours ?

    My wife made a slow cooker London broil pot roast recipe that smelled and looked amazing. I was gone that day for dinner so I brought it for lunch to work the next day. I heated it up and was walking to my desk when I dropped the entire meal all over the office. Like I said, it looked and smelled great.

    Part of your confusion is probably the fact that "London Broil" isn't a cut of meat (it's a recipe/technique) although a lot of stores sell different cuts of beef labelled as "London Broil".  There's no telling what cut you're getting, it could be top sirloin, flank, top round, etc. 

    So what one person says works for London Broil might actually be using a different cut of beef than what you have.  If it's flank steak, I just do a quick cook (450-500 x 4-5 min per side).  If it's a cut from up on the shoulder, it's going to take longer to tenderize so I'd do a slow roast or reverse sear type of cook.

    Nibble... Yeah, Sorry bout the term " London Broil". Guess I should of specified, but I believe it to be flank steak. What internal temp should it go on a low and slow ? Its on now at 225 indirect over a water pan with water & broth in it.
