2. Picanha, Brazil

Picanha is a marbled grilled beef steak. A thick layer of fat known as a fat cap surrounds the triangular-shaped steak. Therefore, before putting the meat on a skewer, a cook makes sure that the fat layer is on the outside. As for spices, only salt and pepper are used. The main secret of delicious Picanha lies in its proper cooking. The steak is grilled on the hottest coals. As a result, the fat melts and soaks into the meat, preventing it from becoming dry.
