About Picanha meat
Picanha, a prized cut of beef in Brazilian cuisine, is cherished for its rich flavor and tender texture. Taken from the top of the rump, Picanha boasts a distinctive fat cap that enhances its juiciness and depth when cooked, typically roasted or grilled over an open flame. It is a good source of protein, essential for muscle repair and maintenance, and provides iron, a crucial mineral for oxygen transport in the blood. However, its notable fat content requires moderation, as excessive consumption can contribute to higher saturated fat intake, impacting heart health. Picanha is often enjoyed as part of traditional churrasco (Brazilian barbecue) meals, where communal sharing and mindful eating highlight its cultural significance. When paired with nutrient-rich sides like leafy greens or whole grains, it can be part of a balanced diet. Opt for leaner slices to reduce calories and fat while savoring this delectable cut.
