Picanha

Cut from the top round area of the cow, the Picanha is an exotic piece to serve at your next dinner party.  Popular in Brazil, it has a rich, earthy flavor full of umami.  With beautiful marbling, it is delightful cooked on the grill or stove like a typical steak.  It is very tender and has lovely toothsomeness compared to a Filet Mignon or Ribeye.  Your home becomes a churrascaria when serving Picanha.
