Churrasco, or Brazilian barbecue, is a staple in Rio de Janeiro's culinary scene. It is a style of cooking meat over an open flame, typically on a skewer or grill. Churrasco is known for its flavorful and tender cuts of meat, such as picanha (top sirloin), fraldinha (flank steak), and linguiça (Brazilian sausage). The meat is seasoned with salt and sometimes other spices, then grilled to perfection. Churrasco is often served with farofa, rice, beans, and a variety of side dishes. It is a popular choice for gatherings and celebrations in Rio de Janeiro.
