What the picanha!?

[Anonymous]

No I’m not going crazy. No neither are you. Yes picanha is a word. What is it? A Portuguese word for a Brazilian cut of beef. Why is this important? Because I’m craving it and can’t find it! Anywhere! Someone help me!

Looks like a trip to Brazil might do the trick.

I don’t have the money. There is a churrasqueira, or Brazilian steakhouse, nearby where I can get some, but again, don’t have the money.

Anna, I myself  love a good slice of meat. When I was able we used to go into a City Centre pub and lounge and I ordered a 24ounce steak , with all the trimmings. They done in a special fan oval shaped and bought in on a wooden oval tray. It was absolutely beautiful.

It’s from the top rump which is at the end of a sirloin in the hindquarter beef. I think that may also be an American cut. South American beef is real good, usually very heavily marbled and tender. A good piece of rump that has been aged would be a good substitute and cheaper.

You’ve got it! But here, that’s all included in the Rump Roast with no where near as much fat in the fat cap.

Hello Anna. I just sent you a message with a link to an online seller. I have never bought from them, but they seem legit.
