Preferred Beef for tender & taste

Sirloin Tip Roast

Tri Tip

London Broil is a tougher grain of Beef & would need to be sliced very thin.

Round Steak is London Broil cut of Beef - which is tough & best marinated.

You could make a french Dip out of your sandwich.

Good Luck -

Nomad, are you home alone ??

Do Not turn any burners on - lock all doors

watch one of your Red Box Movies

and stay out of trouble young man...

My favorite is a French Dip Sandwich made with Chuck Roast. Really not of French origin. Called French Dip because of the French Roll.

Got this right off "Askthemeatman.com" site. :D

[QUOTE]Let's get it straight, London Broil is a Cooking Method -

NOT a cut of beef!!

But, many grocery store meat departments and butcher shops sell a cut of beef labeled London Broil.

What cut of beef is it usually?

It is usually Top Round Roast.

Most often it is a Top Round Roast. Often I have seen recipes calling for a London Broil using a Top Round Steak - posted as a 2 inch thick, 5 to 6 lb. steak!!

This is not a Top Round Steak, but a Top Round Roast. When I have a customer who requests a London Broil, I cut them a large Top Round Roast.

Now that we have that straight-what is the cooking method that makes a London Broil?

The characteristics common to most London Broil Recipes call for:

Marinating the beef

Broiling the beef to medium rare in a oven or

Grilling the beef to medium rare in a bar-b-q grill

Slicing the finished dish thinly, across the grain, at a 45 degree angle

English muffins are kinda like crumpets - but without the holes! :wah:

You cut them in half and toast them, then have them dripping with butter and a mug of hot chocolate. They're great on a cold winter's day! :-4

English muffins are just called muffins here, but the word 'English' distinguishes them from the American muffin, which is like a giant cupcake, or as we say, fairy cake. :wah::wah:

So they're muffins. OK. Not keen on hot chocolate with them, though - they go well with an egg on top, or some Marmite, or - as you say - just butter.

Muffins are simply muffins. The American muffin, a viley fattening thing with about 600Kcals in each, is an American muffin, or, as you say, a big cup-cake. Yuck!

What? Muffins don't come with "blueberry and cranberry". They're just made of dough, like bread. The American muffin, OTOH, comes with chocolate, fat, blueberry, fat, fat, cranberry, fat, bananas, bits of toffee, and fat. They're just very heavy cakey things.

I would like to officially disassociate the English from the food items mentioned on this thread.

London Broil ?

And it is marinated? English people don't as a rule marinade any English dish as far as I know....It is a frenchy thing.....I think you Americans have been sold a pup.

English Muffins....These are real English Muffins Anything else is an imposter.

Are you people just sticking English on the front of things to give them a touch of class ?

I loved marinades:-4...my fave is the Montreal Steak seasoning made by McCormicks:-4...its a must on flank steak (a very juicy cut of meat).

Thomas's english muffins are the best over here...nooks & crannies. As for dipping in eggs...yummy. BTW, the so called eggs over easy in Ireland were acutally hard boiled eggs...they were disgusting.
