All I did was sprinkle some coarse salt on the fat cap and meat and let it sit for about an hour (did some cardio and weights since I’m going to devour this). After that, I washed off the salt and patted the meat dry with a towel. From there, I proceeded to cook it as usual, aiming for an internal temperature between 133°F (56°C) and 136°F (57°C).
I didn’t bother with any chimichurri this time. Instead, I just used a bit of lime and white pepper powder (yes powder as it will stick to the meat) to dip the meat in, which really helped cut through the richness of the fat. The salt brine earlier did wonders in enhancing the flavor without making it too salty.
One of the things I love about Picanha is the meat-to-fat ratio per bite
improvements? probably could’ve trimmed a bit more fat.
**Note:** The lime and white pepper powder dip comes from Southeast Asian dishes I often make (I am Asian lol), like Bo Lu Lac (Shaken beef). We typically dip the meat in this mix, and it works beautifully here as well.
Edit:
I forgot to include the price, i paid $34USD for 2.2Lbs of “organic” Picanha.

This forced an involuntary and audible gasp from me. Congratulations, you made me hungry for steak at 10am.

Picanha is the best cut of steak don’t @ me

Beautiful cook although I’d personally get the fat crispy. You can’t do any better on the interior. Good stuff!

I’m having a hard time finding picanha in the US. What did they label it as in Wholefoods?

This is genuine one of the nicest looking Picanhas I’ve ever seen, beautiful work. The render on the fat and the cook is flawless. Bravo sir or madam.
