WHAT IS CHURRASCO?
Churrasco is a Latin American form of preparing meat (usually beef) over an open charcoal fire. The traditional dish follows a long history. It was the Brazilian cowboys and gauchos who rewarded themselves with braised meat after a long foray through the pampas. Enjoyably prepared over the campfire. To this day, this early variant of BBQ is celebrated in the country's typical style. We have created a homemade Churrasco Barbecue Rub that will bring the taste of Rio de Janeiro to your plate.

STORY
Nowadays, any meat roasted on a churrasqueira (churrasco grill) is called a churrasco. For the experienced grill master, the so-called “Churrasqueiro”, the unique preparation is a real ritual. Churrasco has a long and nationwide tradition, although there are regional differences. It has its origins in wandering gauchos who used to drive their huge herds of cattle through the South American expanses. In the evening, the ancient herders of southern Brazil prepared their meat over an open fire and ate it in the wild. Since only salt was available to them at the time, the original Churrasco meat was seasoned only with salt. But over time it developed into the versatile Churrasco. A harmonious selection of local spices and herbs was added.

ORIGIN
From Brazil, churrasco barbecue has spread throughout America and into Europe. Churrasco is also enjoying increasing popularity in this country.
