Picanha is a cut of beef that is in some countries considered to be the best because of its marked flavor.It can be grilled, or roasted. It is usualy cut in slices before cooking, the best way to cook a Picanha is just by puting rock salt on it, not too, depending on how much salt you like. Although it is not completely certain, many Brazilian chefs agree that the picanha cut originated in Rio Grande do Sul, the southernmost state of Brazil, famous for its churrasco. Personaly this is my favorite cut of meat,accompanied with rice and salad.
