Grilled London Broil Recipe

London broil is a type of dish where the chef takes a cut of beef, commonly broiled flank steak, though top round steak and coulotte have also been used in more modern times; marinates it and then cuts the beef across the grain, resulting in thin strips. Both the dish and the term are products of North America, rather than any part of the United Kingdom.
