MacKenzie Posted July 15, 2017 Report Posted July 15, 2017 Wouldn't I like to be sampling this cook! 1
SmallBBQr Posted July 15, 2017 Report Posted July 15, 2017 (edited) One of my favourite cuts now. My butcher has been cutting these out of his carcasses and no one around here seems to understand how amazing this cut is.... Some butchers will also confuse them or label them as the tri-tips. p.s. spelled Picanha Edited July 15, 2017 by SmallBBQr 2
Steve M Posted July 15, 2017 Report Posted July 15, 2017 It looks delicious. Did you do anything special to it or is it just the cut? 1

Use only salt, preferably rock salt an hour before, do not put any salt on the fat, just the meat, then remove the salt. Leave at room temp, score the fat, you can add a bit of salt while it cooks but taste to make sure it's not too salty. Slow reverse sear fat first, then meat up to 110 with mesquite wood, (maybe it took 45 min)...Then high temp sear to 125 The piece should be at the most 3lbs or so. Cut in 1 1/2 inch pieces, against the grain and keep the fat on! A must taste with the fat!!! You can dip it into manioc flour... Very tasty!! This cut has it's own taste and it's wonderful! ps: The traditional way is on a skewer folded fat out. This is very informative: Enjoy! Edited July 16, 2017 by Pascalpro 2
