1
Prepare the Meat
Remove the picanha from the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps the meat cook evenly.
2
Season the Picanha
Generously season the picanha on all sides with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Rub the seasonings into the meat to ensure it adheres well.
3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to high heat, around 450°F (232°C). If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are hot and well-distributed.
4
Sear the Meat
Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking. Place the picanha fat side down on the grill. Sear for about 4-5 minutes until a nice crust forms.
5
Flip and Cook
Flip the picanha and continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting the time if you prefer it more well-done.
6
Add Rosemary
During the last few minutes of cooking, add fresh rosemary on top of the picanha for added flavor.
7
Rest the Meat
Remove the picanha from the grill and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
8
Slice and Serve
Slice the picanha against the grain into thin pieces and serve immediately.
