I know I´ve been missing for a few weeks, but here I am again with succulent news that involves meat, lots of it! I´m done with supermarkets and butchers to buy it, as I´ve been recommended this supplier, the so called meat man, who provides good quality meat at extremely competitive prices. On top of this, he delivers directly at home at no additional cost, which makes everything even better.
One of his best meats has to be "picanha"! Picanha is beef meat very typical in the Brazilian cuisine that became very popular in Portugal due to the large Brazilian community and countless Brazilian restaurants in the country. While back home I was never a huge fan of picanha, this one here from the meat man speaks to my heart and palate. It´s the most tender and fresh picanha I have ever tried. This means that every other weekend I gather with other friends for a picanha bbq and that I´m absolutely not the only one addicted to it!
Last bbq was last weekend. I wish you could smell the photos!
Before taking the meat to the bbq, it was sealed at home in a pan only with salt. Only then we sliced it (thin slices!), put more salt and grill it. When the meat is great, salt as a seasoning is good enough to enhance the flavors.
The guy cutting the meat has amazing hands!!! The Picanha was really awesome but it's important to have the right friends at the BBQ. Perfect weekend!!
