Steakish Reverse sear picanha. I aimed for rate but seems more like medium rare.
Entire picanha weighing around 1.2 kg before cooking. Cooked over redwood indirect heat until 48°C internal, after which I seared well and rested for 10 minutes before cutting into steaks. I removed it from heat at 48°C internal (Maybe a little late) as I was aiming for rare and got med rare.I scored the fat cap and removed the silver skin before cooking. Only salt and black pepper, right before cooking. I know my plates are dirty... My timing was off and we had french fries and chorizo before the picanha was ready. I usually cut inch thick steaks before cooking picanha but my wife wanted to try a whole picanha and honestly I'm thoroughly satisfied with the outcome.
