  • In an America vs Argentina global beef showdown, I took on a BBQ master... My competitor cooked up what is easily the most unique cut of beef I have ever seen and needless to say, the steaks were high. For international bragging rights, this one was intense!

    Pro Tip: You don't give wine to an Argentinian while at a BBQ v Asado competition. It's like giving Popeye spinach before a boxing fight.

      Also, we the Argentineans always take it as an event with friends or family, so you know in advance that you will spend the whole day doing that, In fact it is rare that people do not gather near the grill, drinking wine or fernet, to simplify it, it's more of a social event.
      The "asado" is a more collaborative event than the BBQ, where you can see the pit master usually left alone, usually people gathers around the grill... and its not "gaucho" at all leaving the pitmaster alone, everyone will eat, everyone must help.

    • @gastonzamora4985
      @gastonzamora4985 Před 6 měsíci +14

      I mean, its obviously not conventional french cooking, but what Al did is extremely traditional, its the way meat has been cooked in Argentina for a very long time, if he wanted to go more traditional he would have used an "Asador" which is usually used for cooking larger meats (a whole leg of beef, a pig, a lamb), its a stake that you place next to an open fire, and anyone that knows how to cook with that method is extremely well versed in making Asados. The method Al used, which is the Parrilla (Argentinian Grill) is just the most commonly used in Argentina because it imparts the flavor we like while also keeping the open fire, over embers, traditional style, in a more convinient way.

    • @leandrobelizan8238
      @leandrobelizan8238 Před 4 měsíci +8

      The thing about this comment is you asume the "classic" or "conventional" way is the American way, but that's false. Bbqs have been done like that in argentina for centuries, cooking like that is indeed classical and conventional, just not in your country. The more you know.

    • @SaltExarch
      @SaltExarch Před 3 měsíci +2

      Definitely agree, that's why I put "classic" in quotes. In hindsight I should've also put "traditional" and "normal" in quotes, which I have now added for clarification. Often a lot of cooking channels fall into the "european/french-inspired" cooking is the "right" way and everything else is considered unconventional, but there's so much unique food all over the world made a bunch of different ways and it's always amazing to see someone like Al coming in like "this is how we do it, this is how we've always done it, and it's gonna be awesome" and he's 100% correct.

    That vacio's cooking point it's just perfect. Al is representing us very well.
    Al wasn't lying when said that it's a whole experience, it's more like a social event you spend with your familiy and/or friends, everyone's helping, supporting the pit master whit hydratation, maybe keeping the fire on, prob preparing the salads, everyone's hanging around the grill chatting and laughing, drinking some wine, 'fernet', 'cinzano' or beer.
    For example, with my friends we start our 'asado' at 9pm drinking some beers (preparing the grill at 8.30pm) to start eating at 11.30pm with wine. After the dinner we end up drinking 'fernet', playing card games as 'truco' or 'chinchón' or playing the guitar, some 'chacareras' or 'sambas'. It's a beatiful tradition.
    I really enjoyed the video, keep it up Max!!!! Greetings from San Luis, Argentina

    Work as a grill cook in an Argentinian restaurant in London, also using a 'Santa Maria', all the flavour that the meat gets from it is astonishing, only downside though is the charcoal and wood, always have to keep an eye on it, otherwise you're fucked, but delicious food and even better people.

      You can still cook it without that fat, but not the way in this video. Medium heat, and much less time. You will have a vacio with a rarer colour, and the texture will be a bit different. But if you do this without the fat layer and skin, you will be eating a shoe sole...
