JAMÓN SERRANO

Prime Part of the Top Sirloin. Our signature steak, picanha represents the art and science of churrasco cooking. Lightly seasoned with rock salt and sliced thin, it is tender with a robust flavor. There would be no churrasco without picanha.

Trim any excess fat from the picanha, leaving a thin layer to help retain juiciness during cooking.

Prepare the Steak

Generously coat the picanha with rock salt and black pepper, ensuring an even coverage on all sides. Let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

Season the Steak

Prepare your grill for high heat. If using charcoal, let the coals burn until they are covered with white ash. For a gas grill, preheat on high for about 10-15 minutes.

Preheat the Grill

Place the picanha on the grill, fat side down. Grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

Grill the Picanha

Remove the picanha from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain and serve immediately.

Rest and Slice

Drizzle a little olive oil over the sliced steak and serve with your favorite sides.
