How to Grill London Broil

There are a couple of ways to think of London broil. The act of preparing a relatively tough cut of meat by pan frying it until it reaches medium rare is the traditional definition of London broil. It has since taken on a new meaning, though. People now think of London broil as a recipe that calls for marinating the meat before preparing it on a grill or frying it in a pan.
