Talk:London broil

Cut of meat

I live in the eastern part of the US and at least around here London Broil is always round steak. This article infers that it is usually flank steak. Perhaps that was true years ago before flank steak because popular for fajitas and the price went up.

Does anyone agree? Perhaps the article should be updated. Iambk (talk) 22:07, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

I live in Ottawa, Ontario and the London Broil that I buy is ground pork surrounded by tenderised round steak. Many years ago, I used to buy it at the Central Meat Market (may it rest in peace!) in the Byward Market and the ground pork had all sorts of seasonings in it. Obviously, there is more than one recipe for London Broil. Grandma Roses (talk) 21:19, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

You mean "implies". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.2.158.119 (talk) 05:14, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Southern Ontario, not "Canada"

Last section refers only to several commercial outlets in Southern Ontario, and none at all in the rest of Canada. So it is incorrect to begin the paragraph with: "In Canada ...". This may define London broil in Southern Ontario, but that does not, by definition, extend to the rest of Canada.

The paragraph should probably begin: "In South-Central Canada..." or: "In parts of Southern Canada...".

English city

Could we be pedantic and change 'English city' to United Kingdom?

The London broil is not known anywhere in the uk, and 'England' is really a region. London would be correctly described as the capital city of the United Kindom. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.193.128.154 (talk) 19:04, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

It's from London Ontario. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tallewang (talk • contribs) 07:51, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

The article would be improved by more info on the etymology of this term, which is completely unknown in the UK. Some derivation from Ontario would make sense. --Ef80 (talk) 14:25, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

I was wondering how it got its name of London broil. Why not Witchita broil or Munich broil. Why is it 'London'?
