About Angus picanha

Angus Picanha is a premium cut of beef originating from Brazilian cuisine, where it's celebrated as a centerpiece in churrasco-style grilling. Taken from the top of the rump, this triangular-shaped cut boasts a thick cap of fat that imparts rich flavor and tenderness during cooking. It's a source of high-quality protein, essential for muscle repair and growth. Angus Picanha also contains important nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, supporting energy metabolism and immune health. While the fat cap enhances juiciness and taste, it contributes to higher saturated fat content, meaning moderation is key for heart health. Traditionally prepared on skewers and grilled to perfection, this cut is a flavorful indulgence that bridges cultural tradition and culinary excellence. Enjoy responsibly as part of a balanced diet.
