About Asado
Asado is an Argentine meal of meats cooked over wood charcoal. Katriel Menendez's mixed-grill recipe includes flank steak, short ribs, chorizo, blood sausage and sweetbreads, with several extra cuts offered as options.
Salt and the charcoal grill frame the meat flavours. Lemon and pepper season the sweetbreads, while chimichurri supplies herbs and chilli alongside olive oil and red wine vinegar.
Different cuts bring juicy meat, browned surfaces and contrasting sausage textures. The dishes arrive hot in stages as they become ready, with bread used for the chorizo sandwich and alongside the blood sausage.
