Asado Uruguayo

Cultural Context

Asado Uruguayo is a traditional barbecue that reflects the country's rich culture and love for communal gatherings. Originating from the gaucho lifestyle, it is more than just a meal; it is a social event where family and friends come together to enjoy grilled meats and share stories. Today, asado is celebrated not only in Uruguay but also has influenced barbecue traditions across South America, with each region adding its unique twist.

Place the largest piece of meat on the grill first, fat side down, closer to the fire.

Add the roast strips, sausages, mollejitas, chinchulin, and kidney to the grill.

Remove the chorizos from the grill once cooked, noting their appearance.

9

Cook the entrecote and other meats, checking for doneness and ensuring they are cooked on all sides.
