Description
Known as the crown jewel of Brazilian steakhouses, the Sirloin Cap — or Picanha — is prized for its rich beef flavour, signature fat cap, and exceptional tenderness. Cut from the top sirloin, this highly sought-after roast delivers a juicy, buttery bite with every slice. The thick layer of fat slowly renders during cooking, naturally basting the meat and creating the bold, savoury flavour Picanha is famous for. Whether grilled whole, sliced into steaks, or skewered Brazilian-style over open flame, this halal-certified cut offers a premium steakhouse experience that’s perfect for gatherings, BBQs, or special occasions. COOKING TIP: Score the fat cap lightly and season generously with coarse salt. Grill fat-side down first to render and crisp the fat, then continue cooking over medium heat until desired doneness is reached. Rest before slicing thinly against the grain. Best served medium-rare with chimichurri or grilled vegetables. 2.5 lbs approx.
