For Evandro Caregnato, grilling isn’t just something he does—it’s part of who he is. Born in southern Brazil, Caregnato grew up watching his father, Davino, prepare skewers of marinated meat, peppered with fresh herbs, before being placed over an open fire. Called churrasco in Brazil, this cooking method is passed down in families, not culinary schools. It’s a casual style that begs families and friends to come together to sample different skewered meats and inventive sides while they talk…

"All South American countries have their particular method of ‘churrasco’, which is the Spanish word for grill. In Brazil the cuts of meat are skewered and slowly roasted on a rotisserie over charcoal. As the sides cook, the meat is thinly sliced off, like a kebab. Since most of us have pretty basic barbeques, I’ve devised a marinade that pimps up any cut of meat no matter what grill you use. Try it with one or all three of the sauces." - Jennifer Joyce.

Brazilian churrasco is a festive grilling tradition, requiring essential tools like churrasqueira grills, skewers, and specific cuts of meat seasoned with traditional flavors for an authentic experience. Mastering skewering techniques, managing heat zones, and serving with traditional sides and condiments are key to a successful churrasco gathering, ensuring juicy, flavorful meats and a rich culinary celebration.
