Barbecued meat πππππ Brazil and Argentina both claim to be South Americaβs barbecue champion. And while each country takes a different approach to its meat, from the cuts to the accompaniments, some things remain the same β namely, the ogre-sized quantities of meat, best appreciated at a leisurely pace and with an elasticated waistband. In Brazil, premium cuts (the most popular being picanha, or rump cap) are seasoned with no more than a liberal shake of coarse salt, before being grilled to pink perfection over charcoal (or wood, if youβre doing it the old-fashioned Southern way). Home barbecues will see sausages, queijo coalho (squeaky cheese on a stick) and chicken hearts sharing space on the grill, while in churrascarias (barbecue-style steakhouses), all manner of meats on skewers β from pork to lamb and wild boar β will be sliced by waiters straight onto your plate. #Brasil
