Ingredients

  • 2kg Mixed Beef Cuts
  • 4 Chorizo
  • 2 Morcilla
  • To taste Salt

Directions

  1. Prepare the Fire: Start a wood fire in your grill and let it burn down to coals.
  2. Season the Meat: Generously salt the beef cuts.
  3. Grill the Meat: Place the beef on the grill, starting with the thickest cuts farthest from the coals. Add chorizo and morcilla after the beef has been cooking for a while.
  4. Cook to Perfection: Cook the meat, turning occasionally, until it reaches your desired doneness. Typically, ribs may take up to 2 hours; thinner cuts will cook faster.
  5. Rest and Serve: Let the meat rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with chimichurri sauce and grilled vegetables.
  6. Pro Tips:
  7. Use a mix of wood and charcoal for a consistent heat source. Wood adds flavor, while charcoal maintains temperature. Season the meat just before grilling to ensure it retains its moisture and flavor.
  8. Serving Suggestions:
  9. Serve with a side of chimichurri sauce, a fresh tomato salad, and crusty bread. Pair with a robust Malbec wine to complement the rich flavors of the meat.
