👨🍳 Instructions
- Prepare the picanha by slicing it into thick, crescent-shaped pieces, ensuring each slice has a generous portion of the fat cap.
- Thread the picanha pieces onto skewers, folding them with the fat cap facing outwards, then generously season with coarse sea salt on all sides.
- Grill over medium-high heat, starting with the fat cap down, until it renders and becomes crispy, then rotate to cook all sides to your desired doneness, typically medium-rare to medium.
- Once cooked, remove the picanha from the skewers, let it rest for 5-10 minutes, then slice against the grain before serving immediately.
