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.

Lynn (or anyone with a good answer). I'vwe laid out london broil to cook tonight. My wife always cooks it on the grill, almost rare, etc. I don't know any other way.

We don't really like london broil. It was on sale. LB is very dry with little flavor. Is there another way to cook it that is fairly simple, that will make it taste better? ...bobford

I think everyone should be entitled to time off from work
and affordable
health care. Being the only adult on a farm, I can't
take time off if I
want to; there are too many living things that depend on me
here. I've
never had a job where I didn't get at least 2 weeks
paid vacation and
health insurance; maybe I've just been lucky. I
wouldn't mind paying for
my own healthcare if things didn't cost so much;
fortunately I've only
needed a doctor once in the past 20 years (even my
pregnancies were
handled entirely by midwives). I can't afford to be
sick or injured (or,
rather, I can't afford to see a doctor for it).

My cows (young and smaller than commercial cows) produce
about 350
pounds of meat, plus organ meat and soup bones. I don't
know about the
blood because I don't get it back; the hide as well. We
eat beef a
couple times a week, and one cow would probably last us a
year.
