About this cut
What it is and how to use it
The picanha roast is the entire sirloin cap, a triangular muscle with a thick layer of fat along one side. The fat bastes the meat as it cooks. It can be roasted whole, grilled, or smoked, or cut into thick slices and cooked on skewers in the Brazilian style. It is tender, juicy, and has a rich, beefy taste.
Cook’s tipScore the fat in a crosshatch, season with salt, and cook to at least 145°F. Slice thinly across the grain.
