Ive made Picanha many times, but this was my first crack at the “traditional” approach! I made a few small tweaks by giving the Picanha some smoke before indirectly cooking and searing it, and this was hands down the best steak I’ve ever had!

Simple and delicious!!

2-4 LB Picanha – mine is from @meatnbone
Salt – @maldonsalt
Chimichurri – @alfrugonishop @alfrugoni

All you need for this method is a grill, charcoal, skewers, Picanha, and salt!

I got my @fyrstarter grill loaded up with lump charcoal, then prepped the meat!

Trim the fat cap if needed, remove any remaining silver skin, then proceed to slice with the grain into large chunks as shown!

Season all sides generously with salt before grabbing the Skewers and getting the Picanha on the skewer and ready for the grill. Make sure to give the salt a little time to penetrate!

Right before getting the Picanha on the grill, I tossed on a few chunks of wood, but that’s optional! I let the smoke kiss the steaks for just a bit, then I moved the coals to the sides and cooked the Picanha indirect loc rotating every 90 secs or so.

Once the internal hits 110°, give it a quick sear if needed and pull them off to rest when they hit 120-123°. Let them rest up to about 130-132° before slicing!

Enjoy!
