Day 180: Afternoon BBQ

Brazil

Mouth watering picanha

After a minor delay and a week’s worth of anticipation, we were finally able to enjoy a traditional Brazilian barbecue with Josão at his house. The churrasco normally takes place during the weekend and is a time to socialize with friends and stuff your belly with tasty foods. One of the staples, and probably what is most associated with the get together is the most prized cut of meat, picanha. Seldom seen outside of Brazilian steakhouses in the U.S., in butcher-lingo it is known as the “rump cap” and has a beautifully thick, delicious layer of fat. Along with the pork sausages, squeaky coalho cheese is also grilled over the pit and is served on a skewer like a cheese kebab. For us it doesn’t get much better than an afternoon barbecue at Josão’s.

Nada como aproveitar o último domingo na companhia da família Teixeira de Souza. Josão nos preparou o super churrasco e vamos simbora comer picanha e tomar uma caipirosca. Quem inventou o churrasco foi uma pessoa muito inteligente e podemos dizer que como o churras brasileiro não há igual. Além das carnes, o queijo coalho é sempre de matar! Só que em família de baiano, o feijão de corda, farofa e aquela pimenta não pode faltar então agente se mata de tanto comer. Obrigada Josão por nos fazer engordar até os últimos dias kkk.
