Smoky and Delicious Marinated London Broil
Flank Steak or London Broil is a popular and if prepared correctly, amazing main course, for even the most special occasions. Butchers in America may also label Top Round/Roast as London Broil. The name itself does not refer to the cut of meat, rather the style of preparation and the method of cooking. Actually, the name is a misnomer, people in the city of London, England needless to say, are not familiar with such a dish. Traditionally, this cut is marinated and cooked close to the heat source, about 3 inches and turned often to prevent burning. This is a cut to be prepared either using very little or an extensive amount of cooking time. The meat is then cut across the grain on a 'horizontal diagonal' in thin slices to promote edibility. Failure to do so will result in a very tough and fibrous slab of virtual fodder, suitable only for cubing and tossing to the wild.

- 1/4 cup worcestershire
