Quick Summary

London broil is a dish made from a boneless cut of lean beef, such as top round or flank steak. The meat is typically broiled or grilled and then sliced diagonally across the grain. Broiling involves cooking food by exposing it to direct radiant heat, either over coals or under a gas or electric element, at high temperatures. For London broil, the meat is often marinated with ingredients like vinegar, oil, and garlic before being cooked. This method of preparation is distinct from roasting or baking, as the food is turned to cook both sides.12
