I thawed and sliced a couple beef coulottes. The heavy fat cap is left on to melt and self-baste the otherwise lean cut during the spin. They got skewered on the Weber rotisserie, and doused with olive oil, then heavily salted with coarse sea salt and coarse black pepper; this along with the melted fat form a heavenly crust. Spun for about 20 minutes over 100% hardwood briquettes, and cherry. Drenched in chopped garlic-butter slurry for the last coupla minutes. Roasted baby reds w/onions and steamed Brussels sprouts for supporting cast. This didn't suck!

I've heard of that. There are videos on YouTube about it. Supposed to be some of the best steak you can eat.

Was fortunate to visit Sao Paulo several years ago on a business trip... I never ate so good.
I kept the green side up!

Salpicao is essentially Brazilian chicken salad. Here's what my wife puts in it: shredded carrots, shredded cabbage, corn, raisins, chopped ham, mayonnaise, chopped apples, shredded chicken breast. I top mine with shoestring fries. It's TO DIE FOR!
She also makes "Mayonnaise" (MAY-O-NAY-SEE) which is a Brazilian mayonnaise salad that's similar to our potato salad.
Feijoada is another good dish and probably the most popular. My wife makes that as well. And don't forget the kibi and the pao-do-queijo (Brazilian cheese bread). Wash it all down with a guarana.

that looks fatty... and delicious.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life ā daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Yes, Brazilians cannot survive without rice and beans. They go into withdrawals if they don't have their rice and beans.
Oh, and they MUST talk to their mother every day.
....."Why is your wife yelling?" ....."Yelling? Oh, that's just the way they talk..."
You are 100% correct on all counts. I sometimes ask her why she is using the telephone since all she needs to do is open the window and her mother will hear her!
OK, I need to get that shirt. Tell me where I can get a few?
I love it here!

It's hard to see in my pics, but it's actually the accessory one that Jimbo54 linked to. Got it new in box on Craigslist for $10

The pieces of meat are too clumped together. This former Brazilian recommends you to space them out evenly; the proper spacing should see each of the cutlets form a wide āCā on your skewer.

Ideally, yes. But I was cooking for 8 (6 kids at home, thus "Outnumbered") and needed to fit enough on the spit in one shot
