The Yeomen Warders of Her Majesty's Royal Palace and Fortress the Tower of London, popularly known as the Beefeaters, are ceremonial guardians of the Tower of London. The name Beefeater is of uncertain origin, with various proposed derivations. Read more The most likely is considered to be the Wardens' payment in rations that included beef, as well as mutton and veal, and various historical commentators have noted a preference for beef among the Wardens and the Yeomen of the Guard. I had London Broil left over and thought a nice beef barley soup would certainly have been good payment for the Queen's Beefeaters. See less
