Vacío a la Parrilla

Cultural Context

Originating from Argentina's rich barbecue culture, Vacío a la Parrilla is a beloved dish that showcases the country's affinity for grilling. Traditionally enjoyed during asados (barbecues), this dish reflects the communal spirit of Argentine dining, where friends and family gather around the grill. Today, it has gained popularity beyond Argentina, inspiring variations in many countries, often featuring different marinades and side dishes.

vacío

🥗Healthier: chicken breast

💰Cheaper: flank steak

Chicken breast is lower in fat and calories.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point and is still healthy.

fresh herbs

🥗Healthier: dried herbs

💰Cheaper: frozen herbs

Dried or frozen herbs are more accessible and have a longer shelf life.

lemon juice

🥗Healthier: lime juice

💰Cheaper: vinegar

Lime juice adds similar acidity and flavor.

1

Prepare the vacío by identifying the two sides, one with a thin membrane and the other with a thicker membrane and fat.

2

Season both sides of the vacío with coarse salt and pepper.

3

Let the vacío acclimatize at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before cooking.

4

Prepare a brine using coarse salt, peppercorns, thyme, oregano, ground chili, cloves of garlic, and rosemary, covering it with water and heating it to release flavors.

5

Cook the vacío over indirect heat on the grill for 1.5 to 2 hours, using a crown of embers.

6

Every 15-20 minutes, baste the meat with the brine.

7

After 1.5 to 2 hours, check for doneness by touching the meat; it should feel hot.

8

Let the cooked vacío rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
