He tells me he's flying to the UK and to meet him in London, the reunion was two grown men jumping up and down and hugging in a London pub while shouting "heyyyyyyyyy", then to Brazilian BBQ. The meat was perfection and quite a culture shock for me the way it was done. The things that make life special.

In Argentinian restaurant we always put clean meat on the grill: 1.Smoke adds to saltiness 2.Salting before grilling makes for dried meat sometimes depending on how you do it. I love that you can toss whole picanha on grill, and not care, lots of fat, lots of flavor, also my favorite cut.

[@Duciousness]

That's coz the fool is using a whole lot of Butter that's gonna replace the moisture. He does say this in the video at 4:10. Edit: The guys at the end seem to like it and it doesn't look dry at all so I think he did it right even with minimal ingredients.

[@sombraarthur]

The dryness will depend a lot on how long you left the cut with that salt and outside of the grill. If you don't leave it hanging for a long time, it will retain the moisture, and will not be too salty. The charcoal that Guga uses is one of those that do not make smoke... So a few tricks must be done in order to have the smokiness. Guga could just do it in the traditional way, using firewood or common charcoal, but my guess is that for the videos, a smoking grill is not a desirable thing.

[@sombraarthur]

@@Duciousness "he did it right even with minimal ingredients." What do you mean with "minimal ingredients" you dolt? Traditionally, it is made with rock salt ONLY, and firewood to add a smoky taste. Now I am wondering how much SHITE you put on your meat. Bah! Disgusting!

[@RDDHopsing77]

I thought picanha refers to the cut of meat ie rump cap, whereas Wagyu is a breed of cattle. In Australia high quality Wagyu is popular and readily available. My wife and I had some Wagyu Picanha (Rump Cap) bought from our local butcher last night on the BBQ. It is quite expensive but cheaper than some other cuts of Wagyu, but around 35% more than Angus picanha (grass fed of course). The same Wagyu meat (MB 9+) when exported to Asia or Europe is often up to 6 times the price, so I suppose we're lucky. One of the main differences with the Wagyu is you don't need much or any oil or butter as there is so much fat marbling it's not needed.

[@IAMJORDI0117]

I thought Wagyu can only be raised in Japan

[@RDDHopsing77]

Australia produces a lot of Wagyu second only to Japan and on the increase. It is of high quality and strictly controlled. To the best of my knowledge the only other country to produce Wagyu to any extent is the US. Strange that you sent this reply today as I just bought a 400g Wagyu rump steak from my local butcher for dinner. My butcher is Korean and they love Wagyu there. Though it is very expensive in Asia. He is almost obsessive about Wagyu. Note when buying a large Wagyu steak for barbequing it is best to have one of moderate marbling ie 5/6, as high level eg 9, although more expensive is not as good overall for barbequing due to the high levels of marbling. Also high marbling is quite rich, but is extremely tasty, so is more suited to other styles of cooking. If you've never had Wagyu it's worth trying.

[@Gorbag100]

@@IAMJORDI0117 Wagyu can be raised outside of Japan. But wagyu isn't a breed of cattle, it's a collective name for the principal japanese cattle breeds. The meat with the nice marbling is from "Japanese Black" (Kuroge Washu), which is the most common wagyu breed. There is however wagyu that can't be raised outside of japan, e.g. Kobe beef or Matsusaka beef. Those have to be wagyu from those specific japanese prefectures.

You know what Guga? I don't think it matters what steak you cook; it'll always be a fantastic steak! By the way, if you see this, I hope you will try to recreate this recipe from the anime One Piece called the "Meat on the Bone" Basically, you take 4 chicken drumsticks, cut and push up the meat from the bone inside out on each one, set them aside, soak 1/4 cup of panko breadcrumbs in 3 tablespoons of milk and set it aside too, take 18 oz/500 grams of ground chicken, season it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, a bit of cayenne pepper for a slight kick, mix it together with a whole egg for structural integrity, some vegetable oil, and the milk/breadcrumb mixture, put a hardboiled egg in the center of each chicken drumstick, surround the drumsticks with the ground chicken mixture, and bake them at 400°F for 15-20 minutes. If you do see this comment and make a video on it, I hope you and whoever you eat it with enjoys it! And if 4 is too many, cut the recipe in half to make 2 servings of the Meat on the Bone instead! I am being quite persistent with this one, and will continue to be no matter how long it takes!

It's like a standing rib roast vs a ribeye steak. The steaks will have a higher surface area ratio, which is better if you like steak crust (I do). The roast will be more tender overall because you have to cook it slowly, but you only get a crust (and seasoning) on the outer edge.

Wagyu is the type of beef. Picanha is a cut. You can literally have a Wagyu Picanha.

[@MrDudedude1234]

Dude it's not an expensive cut, it's literally top sirloin cap. And wagyu is a breed, not a cut

[@convincedquaker]

​@@hirotakasugi4891And he does, on his other channel.

[@convincedquaker]

​@@MrDudedude1234It's not literally top sirloin cap because not all Top Sirloin Cap is Picanha. The top sirloin cap must be properly trimmed in order to be Picanha.

[@davidmckean955]

Now that you've popularized it's cut it's really hard to find top sirloin with the cap attached to it which is my favorite way to eat it. Normally the "Cattleman cut" which is 2 1/4" thick.

[@ScotShoe]

This is easily the best video you have ever done. Not about silly experimentation, but actual technique. Thank you.

[@Gundumb_guy]

Thank you for everything you do Guga. I’ve learned a lot over the years and I use quite a few of your techniques everytime I cook steaks. I’ve never seen picanya in the stores by me so I’m going to go out looking for it because I’m sick of not knowing what it tastes like!!

[@andreoddone]

Look for the cut named Rump Cap

[@winmod70]

My butcher at the local Safeway knew what Picanha was when I asked (also known as rump cap as was pointed out earlier or coulotte steak). I now ask him when the next prime sirloin primal is being delivered. He removes the Picanha for me and I just swing by to pick it up!

[@Gundumb_guy]

@@andreoddone huzah! Thank you for that, I will be on the lookout from now on!

[@convincedquaker]

​@@winmod70All Picanha is Culotte, but not all Culotte is Picanha until *after* trimmed as shown.

[@Fakano]

Best steak for me is Fraldinha, also known as Bavete or Flank steak, it0s hard to find because no one asks for it but it0s starting to gain traction here in Portugal because it is simply divinal. Good chewiness not that soft tenderloin texture and the grain lets all the juices stay there and expliode in your mouth. Similar to picanha but better.

[@winconfig]

If you like flank, you will also like Hanger Steak, aswell. It's also difficult to find. Local shops and professional butchers will be the better option to find Hanger and Flank.

[@feliperoadtoglory25]

Aqui no Brasil é um corte bem conhecido

One of the best vids you made, i feel like i can cook any steak following these perfect steps! Thank you Guga

[@mefirst4266]

In the US, the picanha cut is known as a rump cap or sirloin cap. It may also be called a rump cover or “culotte steak.” It is not common to find this cut of meat in stateside grocery stores, where it is typically broken down into smaller cuts of meat like loin or round steaks.

[@judahnanas9772]

I am looking for Picanha here in my country and it's not easy to find but I will eventually. So if Picanha is better than Wagyu it means that Wagyu Picanha would be a dream come true. An expensive one that is.

[@convincedquaker]

[@Strelok473]

Very straight to the point and instructive video on how to cook the perfect picanha. Very nice!

[@fmadden71]

Picanha is by far my favorite steak! What I like doing is smoking it at 200 degrees with Mesquite or Cherry until it hits 110. Then throwing it on my gas grill at 800 degrees to sear it until it gets to 125, let it rest 10 minutes... then slice it up. It is kinda like a prime rib this way and goes great with a mustard, butter and horseradish sauce.

[@erlking5868]

I remember having my first picanha in a churrascaria in São Paulo. 🤤

[@luizmarques4540]

[@vdstoddy]

guga, mostra pra eles a picanha com gorudra xadrezada, selada antes, fatiada e finalizada depois. coisa linda!

[@oscarhellberg]

Picanha is great but skirtstake is still the love of my life. With that said, absolutely beautifully grilled, really amazing technique, and also love how easy it is to follow your steps. I personally prefer a garlic butter herb brush over the stakes but that is my personal opinion. Also why no black pepper? does it burn on the grill or is it also just a flavor choice?

[@ytnewhandlesystem42]

Guga: "Why this STEAK is better than Wagyu!" Us: "What about Wagyu Picanha?"

[@Andre-Nader]

Yeah. I don’t understand why he did this other than just to bait us into commenting. He knows wagyu isn’t a cut of meat.

[@Joao_Oliveira23]

I cook picanha in many ways, but my favorite is on my charcoal rotisserie machine from Brazil. When I do on the grill I sear the whole piece with fat down first the cut inch and half pieces and go back to the grill, after cut sprinkle a little salt

[@ItzRuleBlitz]

Love the work you put into your videos. What do you like more plain butter or garlic butter on steak ?

[@jasonirr9826]

Can confirm this is some of the best steak I’ve ever had

[@perarduaadastra873]

Picanha is a popular cut of beef that originated in Brazil, and is also known as rump cover, rump cap, sirloin cap, or culotte steak. It's a triangular cut of meat with a thick layer of fat on top, and is often cooked over a charcoal grill with minimal seasoning. Picanha has become increasingly popular in Latin America and Portugal in recent years, especially for BBQ.

[@IgnusValentine]

Meu amigo, eu nunca na minha vida imaginei que você fosse brasileiro. E te falar, lhe acompanho há tempos! Achei sua pronúncia de Picanha excelente e achei estranho um estrangeiro falar desse jeito, uma pronúncia bem brasileira. Quando você disse "In Brazil we use...", aí entregou! Well, contratulations on all of your videos, you're amazing and trully helped me about cooking. Keep the awesome work!

I really liked the tips about trimming the meat. Didn't know that yet. But you can't really compare picanha with Wagyu since the first is a part of the cow and the latter is a cow. Secondly. I had plenty of picanha's and i really enjoyed them but yesterday I grilled my first wagyu t-bone and boy, that was something else...

[@paulozhan]

As a Portuguese, I am very used to Rodízio and getting picanha from Brazil and also Uruguay. It's for sure one of my favourite cuts, and I get so triggered when people trim too much of the fat. But this is definitely not better than Wagyu 😂 Wagyu is life

[@BrettWinters-z4n]

Picanha the best cut, Wagyu the best cow... We need paradise, Wagyu Picanha!

[@cobrasys]

Wagyu has way, _way_ too much marbling. I don't want a little bit of meat with my fat, I just want meat.

[@Kizen.]

@@cobrasys It still tastes better. But to be fair Picanha is probably better to gorge on as you can't eat a lot of Wagyu unless you wanna feel sick to your stomach.

[@cobrasys]

@@Kizen. I've never tried it, so I can't compare them. But conceptually (and visually), Wagyu just looks _wrong_ to me. Like I said, I like meat, not fat. I know that fat imparts flavour, but Wagyu just seems to have way too much of it.

For those that don't know this is also called Cap Steak or Rib Cap Steak it's the extreme tender portion of the ribeye just under the fat cap

[@sircharles32]

no the rib cap is a different cut of meat taken off the top of the ribeye, pichanha is a top sirloin cap, its taken off the rump
