Chef Tips

- Deixe a carne descansar por 10 minutos na tábua antes de fatiar para redistribuir os sucos internos - Aguarde a pressão sair naturalmente da panela para manter a textura tenra das fibras bovinas - Ferva o caldo residual com a panela destampada em fogo brando para encorpar o molho antes de regar

Variations

- Desfie a carne com dois garfos e misture ao caldo reduzido para rechear tortilhas de milho ou sanduíches - Adicione 1 pimenta dedo-de-moça picada sem sementes na selagem da carne para introduzir picância média - Acrescente 2 folhas de louro e raspas de casca de laranja ao cozimento para notas aromáticas cítricas

Substitutions

- O músculo bovino pode ser substituído por acém, costela bovina desossada ou paleta na mesma quantidade - A páprica doce pode ser substituída por páprica defumada ou colorau para manter o tom avermelhado - O cominho em pó pode ser trocado por orégano seco e sementes de coentro moídas para aroma mais herbal

How to Store

Store the sliced meat with its own broth in a closed container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. The gelatinous broth returns to liquid consistency quickly when heated over low heat.

Can You Freeze It?

It can be frozen sliced or shredded, covered by the broth, in freezer containers for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and heat in the pot over low heat until boiling.

What to Serve With

Serve with crispy buttered cassava farofa, traditional tomato and onion vinaigrette, white rice, and well-seasoned carioca beans.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the beef shank cut indicated for the preparation of barbacoa?

Beef shank has a high content of connective tissue and collagen, which after 1h30 of pressure melt and transform the meat into extremely tender slices with dense broth.

Can I make this recipe in a regular pot without using a pressure cooker?

Yes, however, the cooking time in a heavy covered pot over low heat will be 3 hours to 3 hours and a half, monitoring the liquid and adding more broth if necessary.

How to remove excess fat from the meat broth?

After cooling in the refrigerator, the supernatant fat will harden on the surface and can be easily removed with a spoon before heating the sauce.

Should the meat be sliced hot right after opening the pot?

It is recommended to wait at least 10 minutes of resting on a board; cutting immediately while hot makes the juices lose and the piece tends to crumble.
