Tastethe heat.

Spicy Picanha starts with the same USDA Prime top sirloin cap that made picanha Brazil’s favorite cut, aged for over 45 days.

Then we add a vibrant blend of premium spices and let the charcoal do its work. The fat cap crisps, the spices char, and every slice carries a warm, smoky kick.
