Churrasco is a traditional Brazilian barbecue style that is extremely popular in Rio de Janeiro. It involves grilling various types of meats, such as beef, pork, chicken, and sausages, over an open flame. The meats are seasoned with salt and sometimes other spices, and then cooked to perfection. Churrasco is often enjoyed with a side of farofa (toasted cassava flour), rice, beans, and a refreshing caipirinha cocktail.
