A Brazilian delight

Alcatrawith cheese.

Alcatra is the tender top sirloin, a staple of Brazilian grilling. We fill it with creamy mozzarella before it goes over the fire.

As it roasts, the cheese melts into the meat. Your gaucho chef carves it tableside, so every slice comes with juicy beef and a golden ribbon of cheese.
