    Every Brazilian BBQ I've been to at my friend's house has had this. They moved to the US from Sao Paulo and the day always began with Jo filling a huge metal bowl with a couple dozen of these steaks and some rock salt. I'd usually hang out by the grill and he'd send me around with the platter once he was done slicing it up. Core memories right there.

    Just realised Guga is Brazilian and now it all makes sense. I worked with a Brazilian guy in GA and we hadn't seen each other in almost 10 years. He tells me he's flying to the UK and to meet him in London, the reunion was two grown men jumping up and down and hugging in a London pub while shouting "heyyyyyyyyy", then to Brazilian BBQ. The meat was perfection and quite a culture shock for me the way it was done.

  • @fmadden71
    @fmadden71 Год назад +1

    Picanha is by far my favorite steak! What I like doing is smoking it at 200 degrees with Mesquite or Cherry until it hits 110. Then throwing it on my gas grill at 800 degrees to sear it until it gets to 125, let it rest 10 minutes... then slice it up. It is kinda like a prime rib this way and goes great with a mustard, butter and horseradish sauce.

Now he's collaborating with other well known RUclipsrs to mix things up. It's nice seeing people excel in what they do and seeing it from the start.

  • @guicattoni1773
    @guicattoni1773 8 месяцев назад +1

    Good Job Guga!!! Just like cooking rice, every family has their own way to cook their picanha in Brasil. Mine is: salt it after cooked and sliced. some other very, very important tips: you should only put the picanha on the grill and you charcoal is red hot. Then you should sear your steak on one side until it starts to "sweat" a little on the raw side, then it's time to flip it.
    IMPORTANT: you can grill is on a gas grill: Did you see what Guga did to avoid flames? You'll do the same. Never place the fat over the burners... place the fat on the gaps between burners... If you salt your steaks after they are cooked and sliced, you will make your grill last longer for salt promotes rusting. I hope this is helpful to somebody! Guga, good job! I'm a big fan!

      @@hirotakasugi4891 yes you can, but wagyu because of it's size is butchered differently than a zebu or angus (most common breeds in brazil), picanha takes a significant part of the wagyu rump if you cut it, which makes the whole cow a lost of profit, if that makes any sense. So the idea of having a wagyu picanha is very luxurious and a waste.

      It's like a standing rib roast vs a ribeye steak. The steaks will have a higher surface area ratio, which is better if you like steak crust (I do). The roast will be more tender overall because you have to cook it slowly, but you only get a crust (and seasoning) on the outer edge.

    I thought picanha refers to the cut of meat ie rump cap, whereas Wagyu is a breed of cattle. In Australia high quality Wagyu is popular and readily available. My wife and I had some Wagyu Picanha (Rump Cap) bought from our local butcher last night on the BBQ. It is quite expensive but cheaper than some other cuts of Wagyu, but around 35% more than Angus picanha (grass fed of course). The same Wagyu meat (MB 9+) when exported to Asia or Europe is often up to 6 times the price, so I suppose we're lucky.
    One of the main differences with the Wagyu is you don't need much or any oil or butter as there is so much fat marbling it's not needed.

      Australia produces a lot of Wagyu second only to Japan and on the increase. It is of high quality and strictly controlled. To the best of my knowledge the only other country to produce Wagyu to any extent is the US. Strange that you sent this reply today as I just bought a 400g Wagyu rump steak from my local butcher for dinner. My butcher is Korean and they love Wagyu there. Though it is very expensive in Asia. He is almost obsessive about Wagyu. Note when buying a large Wagyu steak for barbequing it is best to have one of moderate marbling ie 5/6, as high level eg 9, although more expensive is not as good overall for barbequing due to the high levels of marbling. Also high marbling is quite rich, but is extremely tasty, so is more suited to other styles of cooking. If you've never had Wagyu it's worth trying.

      The meat with the nice marbling is from "Japanese Black" (Kuroge Washu), which is the most common wagyu breed.
      There is however wagyu that can't be raised outside of japan, e.g. Kobe beef or Matsusaka beef. Those have to be wagyu from those specific japanese prefectures.

      The dryness will depend a lot on how long you left the cut with that salt and outside of the grill.
      If you don't leave it hanging for a long time, it will retain the moisture, and will not be too salty.
      The charcoal that Guga uses is one of those that do not make smoke... So a few tricks must be done in order to have the smokiness.
      Guga could just do it in the traditional way, using firewood or common charcoal, but my guess is that for the videos, a smoking grill is not a desirable thing.

    You know what Guga? I don't think it matters what steak you cook; it'll always be a fantastic steak! By the way, if you see this, I hope you will try to recreate this recipe from the anime One Piece called the "Meat on the Bone"
    Basically, you take 4 chicken drumsticks, cut and push up the meat from the bone inside out on each one, set them aside, soak 1/4 cup of panko breadcrumbs in 3 tablespoons of milk and set it aside too, take 18 oz/500 grams of ground chicken, season it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, a bit of cayenne pepper for a slight kick, mix it together with a whole egg for structural integrity, some vegetable oil, and the milk/breadcrumb mixture, put a hardboiled egg in the center of each chicken drumstick, surround the drumsticks with the ground chicken mixture, and bake them at 400°F for 15-20 minutes.
    If you do see this comment and make a video on it, I hope you and whoever you eat it with enjoys it! And if 4 is too many, cut the recipe in half to make 2 servings of the Meat on the Bone instead!

    Qualidade e atenção aos detalhes do Guga é algo absurdo de se ver! Devia abrir uma churrasqueria ai nos States e no Brasil.

    Meu amigo, eu nunca na minha vida imaginei que você fosse brasileiro. E te falar, lhe acompanho há tempos! Achei sua pronúncia de Picanha excelente e achei estranho um estrangeiro falar desse jeito, uma pronúncia bem brasileira. Quando você disse "In Brazil we use...", aí entregou!
    Well, contratulations on all of your videos, you're amazing and trully helped me about cooking. Keep the awesome work!

      Não fazia ideia, eu nunca pesquisei. Estou tão acostumado à conteúdos globais que as vezes a gente nem percebe mesmo. Ele não está "americanizado", apenas está com o conteúdo internacional mesmo, o que é excelente!

    I always cook it rotisserie. That the fatcap melts juice over the meat. You can place the pincanha back again and again so you make crust every time. Different style but definitely original brasil style correct?

    O Guga é o sinal de que não importa quanto tempo a pessoa mora fora, o lado BR sempre vive dentro de cada um!! Picanha for the win! hahaha
