Check out the Chef iQ app here: pixelfy.me/IKNAvt Thanks Chef iQ for sponsoring this video.
I have cooked many steaks in my lifetime. Today I share and explain to you why I always come back to my number 1 pick! It's called picanha and where why its better than wagyu for me.

    Just realised Guga is Brazilian and now it all makes sense. I worked with a Brazilian guy in GA and we hadn't seen each other in almost 10 years. He tells me he's flying to the UK and to meet him in London, the reunion was two grown men jumping up and down and hugging in a London pub while shouting "heyyyyyyyyy", then to Brazilian BBQ. The meat was perfection and quite a culture shock for me the way it was done. The things that make life special.

    Every Brazilian BBQ I've been to at my friend's house has had this. They moved to the US from Sao Paulo and the day always began with Jo filling a huge metal bowl with a couple dozen of these steaks and some rock salt. I'd usually hang out by the grill and he'd send me around with the platter once he was done slicing it up. Core memories right there.

    I thought picanha refers to the cut of meat ie rump cap, whereas Wagyu is a breed of cattle. In Australia high quality Wagyu is popular and readily available. My wife and I had some Wagyu Picanha (Rump Cap) bought from our local butcher last night on the BBQ. It is quite expensive but cheaper than some other cuts of Wagyu, but around 35% more than Angus picanha (grass fed of course). The same Wagyu meat (MB 9+) when exported to Asia or Europe is often up to 6 times the price, so I suppose we're lucky. One of the main differences with the Wagyu is you don't need much or any oil or butter as there is so much fat marbling it's not needed.

    Australia produces a lot of Wagyu second only to Japan and on the increase. It is of high quality and strictly controlled. To the best of my knowledge the only other country to produce Wagyu to any extent is the US. Strange that you sent this reply today as I just bought a 400g Wagyu rump steak from my local butcher for dinner. My butcher is Korean and they love Wagyu there. Though it is very expensive in Asia. He is almost obsessive about Wagyu. Note when buying a large Wagyu steak for barbequing it is best to have one of moderate marbling ie 5/6, as high level eg 9, although more expensive is not as good overall for barbequing due to the high levels of marbling. Also high marbling is quite rich, but is extremely tasty, so is more suited to other styles of cooking. If you've never had Wagyu it's worth trying.

    @@Jordi-cg6nt Wagyu can be raised outside of Japan. But wagyu isn't a breed of cattle, it's a collective name for the principal japanese cattle breeds. The meat with the nice marbling is from "Japanese Black" (Kuroge Washu), which is the most common wagyu breed. There is however wagyu that can't be raised outside of japan, e.g. Kobe beef or Matsusaka beef. Those have to be wagyu from those specific japanese prefectures.

    Best steak for me is Fraldinha, also known as Bavete or Flank steak, it0s hard to find because no one asks for it but it0s starting to gain traction here in Portugal because it is simply divinal. Good chewiness not that soft tenderloin texture and the grain lets all the juices stay there and expliode in your mouth. Similar to picanha but better.

    Ahhh ha! My local grocery store started carrying Picanha this past spring. But they don’t call it that. They label it a “sirloin cap”. It’s already precut into individual steaks EXACTLY like yours. I took a chance and it’s quickly become my favorite. Due to price and flavor. And the dude near the end describes it precisely - the texture of tenderloin but the flavor of NY strip. NY strip has always been my favorite cut due to flavor, chew and the fat cap on one edge. Never been a fan of ribeyes - soft and blubbery. Due to your great vid I now know why some slices (individually cut up steaks) are a bit tougher. Thanks! I kept meaning to ask a butcher what it was but it was never convenient.

    Guga, excellent choice of protein...my favorite cut next to a rib eye. I like to cut slits into the fat, almost to the meat. Rub in olive oil, or avocado oil as a binder. Season the fat heavily as this will help with making the fat render and becoming crispy over the fire. I'd like to hear your feedback. For extra rich flavour, I add balsamic vinegar to the steak and let it rest in it for a couple of hours.

Of course you can eat it with a multitude of sides, however probably the most popular here is to serve it with either hasselback potatoes or steak fries with sauce bearnaise. It is MmMmmGood!

    Picanha is by far my favorite steak! What I like doing is smoking it at 200 degrees with Mesquite or Cherry until it hits 110. Then throwing it on my gas grill at 800 degrees to sear it until it gets to 125, let it rest 10 minutes... then slice it up. It is kinda like a prime rib this way and goes great with a mustard, butter and horseradish sauce.

    It's like a standing rib roast vs a ribeye steak. The steaks will have a higher surface area ratio, which is better if you like steak crust (I do). The roast will be more tender overall because you have to cook it slowly, but you only get a crust (and seasoning) on the outer edge.
