Picanha
« Reply #-1 on: June 19, 2017, 10:07:31 PM »
I got a 3.5# sirloin cap aka Picanha. Gave it a coating of Beef and Game and hung it in the PBC, letting it cook to around 115. I pulled the meat! Then I cracked open the lid an inch or so to get the fire cranked up for ten minutes. Put it back in to get a nice browning on the outside.

I wish I took pics, but I will say it turned out great. I didn't trim the fat cap at all this time (being my first time, and I didn't know how thick it was). I like some fat with my lean anyway, but I'll cut it back a bit next time as it was very rich that way.

Looking forward to getting it again, though it was a bit pricey at about $12/lb.

SOUNDS GOOD!!  Be careful, you don't want to be accused of "unicorn cooks".  Work on your picture taking and posting skills.  We love food porn around here.

We got it at a specialty butcher shop.  You won't find it in a grocery store here in upstate NY.

If I could get it for $4 per lb., it'd be on the menu all the time. Fantastic piece of meat.
