[MisterChrister]

Step 1) Cut a coulotte into wide strips

Step 2) Apply a copious paste of EVOO, minced & mashed garlic, sea salt, and pepper

Step 3) Spin over a hot fire with plenty of wood chunks for smoke and flame. Make sure fat is dripping on flames and smell is carrying well on the wind for several blocks or more

If I was your neighbor I would have walked over and demanded a sample! Looks great!

[Shagdog]

Wow does that look amazing! One of my favorite cuts. :thumb:

[Ron_L]

Beautiful! I need to see if I can find picanha around here.

[64Driver]

Looks awesome!

If I was your neighbor I would've dressed up in a police uniform, claimed you broke some made up rule, and confiscated the entire meal for myself.

[LMAJ]

That looks awesome!

[93vpmod]

If I was your neighbor I would copy your meal and enjoy that beautiful beef goodness. Then again, I may do it several hundred miles away!

[campdude]

That looks great. I'm sure it's not the only time you've teased the neighbors.

[fantomlord]

Outstanding! But I must have missed my invite somehow :rolleyes:

[FireChief]

Wow. Looks amazing, great job !

[cowgirl]

[Enrico Brandizzi]

Comolimenti! I love picanha! And yours is awesome

[Fwismoker]

Looks great! I enjoy messing with my neighbors as well. )))

[Smoothsmoke]

Absolutely nailed it! Pass me a plate!

[Smoothsmoke]

Cut your own off a whole top block. Easy to do and easy on the wallet too.

Thanks Phu! Admittedly, I had to Google the word "cuisson"! What do I know, I'm just a redneck who likes his beef charred on the outside and red all the way thru!

[GSXR883]

Looks great and the directions are simple. It's hard to find that cut of beef around here. One of my favorites.

[MisterChrister]

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picanha Wiki actually got it right this time. Make sure to look at the Brazilian section.

[Mo-Dave]

Well in just one post you made me mad, cause I didn't get an invite. It does look good.

Picanha is considered one of the best cuts in Brazilian 'Churrascaria' type BBQ restaurants (there's quite a few in the US now, Fogo de Chao being the better known one I guess, which was bought by a US company a few years ago). Some traditionalists say it cannot weigh more than 1Kg (2.2lbs) or you are starting to get other cuts with it, and the tip is considered the best part.

Typically it's done over charcoal on a rotating spit, and carved from the spit in thin slices at the table. Sea Salt is the normal seasoning, but you also get garlic and sea-salt rubs quite often.

It's a nice cut of meat, but hellishly expensive here in Brazil - I've been far more excited about the other meats I have read about on this forum that no one in Brazil eats! Chuck, or 'acem' is considered good for dogs, and Brisket is unheard of here, and quite hard to get a butcher to keep in one piece.

[landarc]

That is very Brazilian! Nicely done.

[buccaneer]

Never mind disturbing your neighbours, you are disturbing ME alla way downunder!

One of my favourite pieces of beef and done perfectly!
:clap2:
