Back in the day, a London Broil was a flank steak.  Dozens of ways to cook 
it.

Now you're just getting a slab of round steak with a fancy price tag, 
generally speaking.  Make stew, slice thin and make stir fry, marinate and 
make jerky, beat the beejeebers out of it with a meat tenderizing mallet 
until it is real thin and bread and have chicken fry steak with gravy, cut 
into little tiny cubes and make some beef and barley soup, semi-freeze it 
and slice it in half again, beat it up with the meat tenderizing mallet, lay 
some stuffing on it, roll it up, wrap with bacon, put in a roasting pan with 
a layer of onions under it and slow roast.
