Nutrition & macros (per serving)

Ingredients

• 1 Cup Mixed Beef Cuts
• 1 Cup Chorizo
• 1 Cup Morcilla
• 1 Cup Salt

Method

1. Prepare the Fire: Start a wood fire in your grill and let it burn down to coals.
2. Season the Meat: Generously salt the beef cuts.
3. Grill the Meat: Place the beef on the grill, starting with the thickest cuts farthest from the coals. Add chorizo and morcilla after the beef has been cooking for a while.
4. Cook to Perfection: Cook the meat, turning occasionally, until it reaches your desired doneness. Typically, ribs may take up to 2 hours; thinner cuts will cook faster.
5. Rest and Serve: Let the meat rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with chimichurri sauce and grilled vegetables.
6. Pro Tips:
7. Use a mix of wood and charcoal for a consistent heat source. Wood adds flavor, while charcoal maintains temperature.
8. Season the meat just before grilling to ensure it retains its moisture and flavor.
9. Serving Suggestions:
10. Serve with a side of chimichurri sauce, a fresh tomato salad, and crusty bread. Pair with a robust Malbec wine to complement the rich flavors of the meat.
