Denise Phillips’ Marinated Tender London Broil
London Broil, despite its name, is an American cut of beef which has become increasingly popular here in the UK. It is described as a medium cut of beef as it is not the toughest joint, but is certainly not the quickest piece of meat to tenderise. London Broil comes from the middle part of the shoulder – or side bola – with the central sinew removed. The bola is the inside blade of the shoulder which is divided into the round, side and prime cuts. With the sinew removed, this is a superior prime soft joint of meat and is widely available. To get the get best from London Broil, marinate it first to soften the meat even more and speed up the cooking. Always rest it for 5 to 10 minutes after cooking – if you start carving too soon the juices will run out of the steak leaving you with a dry piece of meat.

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
