Churrasco (Braziliam Barbecue)
I'm from Belo Horizonte, wich is in the southeast part of Brazil. We like to invite our friends over on weekends, on a Friday or a Saturday night for a churrasco, or Braziliam barbecue. This a very popular in this part of Brazil. A churrasco is different in different part of Brazil, but here's how we do it in my city.
People come at about 8pm and stay until mid night or even later - sometimes until in the morning, when someone gets sleepy. People stay a long time; there is no set time for dinner to end. We'll sit around and play cards or just talk.It's very informal. If people want to bring something I'll tell them to bring something for the meal like a bottle of wine or something for desert.
But what the food? At a churrasco, we cook different kinds of meat on long metal skillwears orver an open flame. We make all kinds of meat: beaf, pork and maybe Braziliam sousage. Some times chicken, too. The we cut off slices of meat from the skewears. It's really delicius. We usually have potato salad or rice as side dishes. After the meal, we drink coffee or espresso.
