I recently asked myself, what makes Picanha so good? I realized it\u2019s one of the few cuts that shines in all 3 areas that make a steak great: it\u2019s beefy, tender, and also fatty. Compare this to almost every other cut that lacks at least one:<\/p>\n
Filet mignon:
\n\ud83d\udc4d tender
\n\ud83d\udc4e not beefy
\n\ud83d\udc4e less marbled<\/p>\n
Strip loin:
\n\ud83d\udc4d tender
\n\ud83d\udc4e less beefy
\n\ud83d\udc4d well-marbled<\/p>\n
Brisket:
\n\ud83d\udc4e not tender
\n\ud83d\udc4d well-marbled (especially in point)
\n\ud83d\udc4d very beefy<\/p>\n
Up against any cut, the Picanha debatably comes out on top. IMO even against the ribeye! While slightly less tender, the Picanha is much more beefy (a trade-off I can get behind).<\/p>\n
Why does all of this matter? Besides being something I recommend everyone try, Picanha is a cut that shines in the format of high graded Wagyu. Excessive marbling can be overwhelming on most cuts, but I find that Picanha\u2019s beefiness is one of the few that stands up to this richness. <\/p>\n
This dry aged Australian wagyu Picanha was truly incredible. Our loss was reduced significantly by adding tallow, a process I look forward to continue experimenting with. You\u2019ll notice that I left one side exposed, this was to allow moisture to escape (if fully sealed we would just be wet aging).<\/p>\n
