A butcher may call a cut of beef "london broil" but that's just
marketing. It's a method of preparing lean cuts of beef. Usually
involves marinade. It does not have to be prepared sous vide. I'm with
Sheldon on this one. I can't see any reason to cook something in a
plastic bag in a water bath for 48 hours. I'm sure it was tender and
tasty. Just not something I'd be interested in when I can cook it and
get the same result in just a few hours. <shrug>
