This one is from the 1960's. (Didn't even know they had London broil then!) The marinade uses gin and brown sugar and frankly, I think this recipe will go down in history as one of the best. The meat can be either broiled or grilled. source unknown

5London Broil should not be cooked to well done. it will be too dry. Carving against the grain means carving on the diagonal. London Broil does not refer to a cut of beef. it refers to a method of cooling. (Didn't know that either). Serves 4
