Churrasco

Our Churrasco is a meat lover’s dream, offering a bold taste that wider, thicker cuts simply can’t match. Taken from the plate or flank section (Inside or Outside Skirt), this cut is defined by its long muscle fibers and rich intramuscular fat, which creates a spectacular char on the outside while remaining incredibly tender inside.

Flavor and Texture Profile: Churrasco is famous for its robust, “steak-forward” flavor. Because of its unique grain structure, it absorbs marinades deeply and develops a beautiful crust when exposed to high heat. The texture is pleasantly firm yet juicy, especially when sliced thinly against the grain—a true melt-in-your-mouth experience.

Top Culinary Applications:

• Traditional Chimichurri Platter: Sear quickly over high heat and serve with a generous topping of garlic and parsley chimichurri sauce.

• Gourmet Carne Asada: The best cut for high-end Mexican tacos; its high fat content keeps it moist even over direct flames.

• Flash-Seared Steak: Since it’s a thinner cut, it cooks in minutes, making it perfect for an impressive weeknight dinner.

• Stuffed Rolls: Butterfly the churrasco, fill with peppers and cheese, roll tightly, and grill for a “Matambre” style treat.

Product Highlights:

• Prime Selection: Hand-trimmed to remove excess silver skin, leaving only the flavorful meat and fat.

• Rapid Cooking: Ideal for high-heat environments like cast-iron skillets or open-fire grills.

• Marinade Friendly: Its open grain is perfect for absorbing citrus, garlic, or spicy rubs.

• Lean yet Juicy: Offers a high protein content without the heavy fat cap of other rib cuts.

Whether you call it Skirt Steak, Entraña, or Churrasco, this cut is the undisputed king of the family BBQ.
