This is hands-down the most popular beef in Brazil. Picanha (pronounced pee-KAHN-yah) is known states-side as Top Sirloin Cap, Fat On... and the fat is what makes all the difference.  

This cut packs a lot of flavor and offers one of the best price-value proposition. While Picanha is best cooked in open flames (charcoal or wood), it can also be cooked with gas or in the oven.

This product has been wet aged for 30+ days to improve tenderness. This steak is hand cut and hand trimmed.

WHAT MAKES OUR PICANHA BEST IN CLASS?

You do not have to look hard enough to find cheaper Picanha. In fact, your local butcher shop will surely advertise "Prime" Picanha for about 20-25% less than we sell if for. But the devil is in the details... There is plenty of "Prime" Holestein Picanha out there. Meat N' Bone carries USDA Prime, G1 Certified, Angus Picanha with a 3/4 fat layer... and that is what makes it special.

You will not only get the beef marbling that comes with the grade of Prime, but you are eating premium beef from Angus steers ("A" maturity), fed with premium grain and pasture.  These are steers that weight less than 1,050 lbs. This is "the good stuff" raised and processed in America, aged and cut in Chicago. 

From our blog: Marbling is not a driving indicator of tenderness, hence not all beef graded "Prime" is equal
