FEATURED BBQ RECIPE

GAÚCHO BARBECUE (Churrasco) Brazil

churrasco.jpgChurrasco is a very popular and tasty way in Brazil of cooking meat on a open flame. This method of cooking meat is the traditional way Brazilian cattlemen (GAÚCHO) cooked meat for many centuries. Today Churrasco is a very popular way of cooking meat on a open flame from the rural pampas to the largecities of Brazil.
This is a traditional recipe for a large barbecue from the south of Brazil.
This recipe is good for about 10 guests. You may downsize the ingredients for your convenience.

INGREDIENTS:
10 lb of fine quality cuts of beef, lamb, veal, ribs, etc.
½ cup of salt
6 mashed cloves of garlic
3 cups of water

PREPARE:
Set the fire and be sure the coals are bright before putting on the meat.
Assemble meat cuts on metallic skewers and set on the grill. Turn skewers frequently. When the meat begins to brown, make a salty liquid dissolving the salt in the water with the garlic and baste the meat with it.

SERVE:
Cut slices from outside and serve. Keep meat warm on the grill while not serving. Always baste the meat waiting on the grill with the salty liquid to keep it juicy and fresh.

SERVING SIZE: 10 portions.

Hints:
Cuts with more fat are the best for charcoal grilling.
It takes about 1 hour above the fire.
In the south of Brazil they really cook about 3 feet surrounding the fire and the skewers are placed on the floor around the open fire. But doing in this traditional way they spend the whole afternoon to cook and eat. This way takes about 6 hours to cook, but you go slicing the outer layers as they become done.

Barbecue in Brazil is an event, people eat slowly small slices as the meat gets done. So we may slice a piece and eat along with a beer. Then another slice, another beer. And doing that a barbecue that you are invited for lunch can finish by 6pm or later.
