A delicious, buttery picanha steak with a perfectly rendered fat crust, cooked using the reverse-sear method for maximum flavor and tenderness.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds picanha
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).
  2. Trim excess fat from the picanha, leaving about 1/4 inch.
  3. Rub the salt and pepper all over the meat.
  4. Place the picanha fat side up on a baking rack over a sheet tray and roast until it reaches an internal temperature of 120°F (49°C).
  5. Heat a skillet over high heat and add olive oil.
  6. Once the skillet is hot, sear the picanha for 2-3 minutes on each side until a nice crust develops.
  7. Remove from skillet and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Notes

  • Let the meat rest properly to retain juices.
  • Use a meat thermometer for precision.
  • Adjust searing time based on your preferred level of doneness.
