I did the Red Wine Steak Experiment, maybe you should try this BBQ recipe too

picanha steak

💰Cheaper: flank steak

Sirloin is leaner and more affordable while still providing good flavor.

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil is healthier with a higher smoke point.

butter

💰Cheaper: margarine

Ghee is lactose-free and healthier, while margarine is more affordable.

bbq sauce

💰Cheaper: ketchup

Homemade sauce can be healthier and ketchup is often cheaper.

Trim excess fat from the picanha steak if necessary.

Rub the steak with olive oil, then season generously with coarse salt and black pepper.

Let the steak rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

Preheat the grill to high heat (about 450°F/232°C).

Place the steak on the grill fat side down and cook for 5-7 minutes until well browned.

Flip the steak and cook for another 5-7 minutes for medium-rare doneness.

Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).

Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.

Drizzle with lime juice and garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
