In Brazil, churrasco is the term for a barbeque which contains a variety of meats, which may be cooked on a purpose built "churrasqueira", a grill or barbeque, often with supports for spits or skewers.
In other words, meat-o-topia. It was a carnivore's dream, a vegetarian's nightmare, a flexatarian's excuse to eat pork, and the best damn Saturday I've had in a while. It's official, summer is here!
I apologize for the lack of good pictures. But I was wrist deep in grilled meats and several drinks in by the time I remembered my camera. My Bad
The Spread.
I have to mention the chorizo (not pictured). It was life. changing. No busllshit!

It pays to have a friend in a Samba Band. It pays for that friend in the samba band to to be a summer baby, Happy Birthday, Max!
Caipirhinas. Not a drink for the faint of
the best things in life come in cups! |
What makes BBQs so awesome is laughter, drum lessons, cute little girls who love dogs, samba dancing, and great conversations. I had such a good time, I forgot to have someone take a picture of me. Damnit, I suck at this!
she was all about kona. It was too cute! |
This, my friends, is how you kick off summer!
Looks amazing! Churrasco is my absolute favorite and it looks like you had plenty of it! My diet would've been thrown out the window! It's awesome you had live music. I don't remember the last time we had music at one of our bbq's. Kinda miss dancing with family like back in the day.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like summer heaven! I've never had churrasco, but I think some friends invited us to do this sometime this summer. The music sounded great and that food... oh, that food! Yum!
