I have bought London Broil in the past for making jerky and lately I have started using it for chicken fried steak. I always split it into thin steaks and then beat heck outa it with a tenderizing mallet so that it isn't too tough and it works ok, I guess?
What I was wondering was does anybody have a good Recipe for fixing this non-marble lean piece of meat? All recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

Re: London Broil Question
ok i'll bite.... i might be wrong, but isn't London broil a way of preparing a steak as opposed to a cut of meat? in that, i mean isn't London broil made from a flank steak?
top round roast/steak is sometimes labeled as london broil which is incorrect from what i have been taught. but lets assume you are talking about top round roast/steak. it definitely is a very tough cut. i would be more inclined to cook it using a stirfry method.

Grill it to med rare and slice it thin on the bias and serve with tortillas, Guacamole,pico de gallo, and some lime, black beans and Mexican rice.

You might be correct but I've always seen it advertised and sold as London Broil.
It is a very lean and boneless piece of meat that is usually about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick.
I may try BluDog's fajita style suggestion next time altho I prefer skirt steak or wild turkey breasts for that.
thanks for the replies
