[Of uncertain origin and history: the form brule, which is not infrequent before 1500, appears to be the F. brûle-r to burn (in OF. also bruller); but it is very doubtful what relation this brule bears to the general form bruyle, broyle; they may be distinct words, or brule may be a conscious assimilation to the F. bruler. The form bruyle, and Sc. brulȝe, appear to be the OF. bruillir found in Godef. in the intrans. sense of ‘broil, burn’ (bruillir de soleil); bruyle would become broyle, broil.]

Littré (like Diez) thinks the F. vb. identical with Pr. bruelhar, brolhar, Cat. brollar ‘to bud, rise up’, and connected with OF. bruill, broel, broil, mod.Fr. breuil, ‘an enclosed piece of brushwood, matted underwood, or cut bushes for animals,’ found in late L. in the Capit. de Villis (lucos nostros quos vulgus brugilos vocat), med.L. broilus, brolius, which is referred to the OCeltic brog-, brogi- territory, district (Thurneysen).
