1. Brazilian Barbecue House or Churrascaria, is a cooking style characterized by large cuts of meat cooked on skewers over an open flame, often using a rotisserie or skewered method known as rodizio. The meat is typically seasoned simply with coarse salt to enhance its natural flavor, resulting in a smoky, tender interior with a crisp exterior. Churrasco is a social event centered around a variety of meats, served in a continuous flow at a churrascaria (restaurant) until diners signal they've had enough.


The Experience

A visit to a churrascaria is a communal experience. Guests are often seated at a table with a disc or card, indicating whether they want to receive meat (usually by placing the disc green-side up) or are taking a break (red-side up). When ready for more, the disc is flipped green-side up again, and a server will bring more meat to carve at your table.


2. The all-you-can-eat Brazilian Buffet. This experience is known as “Buffet Livre” with meat. This model involves grilled meats, feijoada complemented by a self-service salad and hot dish station.
