Top Sirloin. Alcatra is one of the largest, most traditional cuts of Brazilian churrasco, with rich and robust flavor.

Start by trimming any excess fat from the top sirloin. Pat the meat dry with paper towels.

Prepare the Steak

Rub the top sirloin with olive oil, then season generously with coarse sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and fresh rosemary if using. Make sure to rub the seasoning into the meat for maximum flavor.

Season the Meat

Preheat your grill to high heat (about 450-500°F or 230-260°C).

Preheat the Grill

Place the seasoned top sirloin on the grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting time based on your preferred doneness.

Grill the Alcatra

Once cooked to your liking, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Rest the Meat

Slice the alcatra against the grain into thin slices and serve immediately, optionally with chimichurri sauce or your favorite sides.
