      <content>This one always sells well.  It's not my usual style of cooking, but it's very tasty.
Get a relatively thin cut of London Broil.  Place in gallon-sized Ziplock bag, or the marinating vessel ofyour choice, for at least four hours (preferably overnight) with:
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 clove of garlic, smashed
1/2 teaspoon coarse-ground black pepper
2 medium onions, one sliced, one chopped

Turn it once or twice during that time so that both sides get well marinated.  Place the meat and marinade in a broiler-safe pan and brown under a preheated broiler for about 4-5 minutes, then roast at 400 F until rare.  How long that step takes depends on the size of the cut, but a small one, eg 1.5 pounds, can be about 20 more minutes to get to rare, and a few minutes longer to medium-rare; cut into the thickest part of the meat to check the color if you do not have a meat thermometer.   Do not let it get well-done, as well-done London Broil is very chewy.  When you slice it up, rather than the normal up and down cut, where the knife is at a 90 degree angle relative to the cutting board, slice it at a 45 degree angle, which also keeps it very tender.

      <content>Won't help you now, but I have my butcher cut the London Broil into steaks, roughly 3/4" thick, and have him tenderize it.  Then marinate in a Ziploc with Soy Vey and grill.</content>

      <content>I make Beef and Broccoli. The meat is cut very thinly sliced and marinated with soy sauce, sugar,baking soda, water and oil. A separate seasoning sauce is made and set aside. The meat  is sauteed quickly and  removed immediately.Green onion and fresh ginger is then sauted.The broccoli is brought to a boil and cooked a short time, drained  and added to the onion and ginger mixture. The meat is returned to the pan, and the seasoning sauce is added.</content>

      <content>I've heard it said that you should first cook the meat on a high temp on the BBQ on both sides to sear in the juices before switching to the indirect heat</content>

      <content>'Searing in juices' is a myth: http://www.chow.com/stories/11751  
Browning does make meat tastier, though.  </content>
