Empanadas cooked in a live fire oven

We're back in Brazil with live fire pitmaster Marcos Livi. During our stay, we had an amazing lunch by the lake. One of the dishes being served was traditional Argentinian empanadas and we asked Livi to show us the recipe and process.

These would be perfect for our wood-fired oven!

Little crunchy. Texas empanadas barely golden brown. Every time I’ve gone south of the border they overcook nearly everything. Chefs say because of sketchy refrigeration everyone makes sure they kill bacteria. Mexico,Costa Rica, Panama, Columbia all same. Best food I’ve had was in Columbia.

I bet they taste good with your BBQ rub on it
