grilling CypressHill1973 my grill & BBQ in Argentina

What matters is the moderation of heat .... take your time and relax. Some drinks are good allies. The meat needs minimum one hour, to be tender, juicy and splendid. When slower roast better result.

Not all smokers to the starter, stir before finished, so keep slow heat.
 
These ribs have dined yesterday with delicious "chinchulines", chorizo  and morcilla
 
In the barbacue...

Here I show a typical butcher Argentina. On these sites you can ask the butcher cutting or second piece we want. There are no limits as to what order. Butcher always ready to provide service. 
The place is huge, and I was embarrassed that they saw me taking pictures, so just some.
 
Rack are the most common cuts of different qualities.

I would love to see a photo of one of those nice "Fatties"  not sure what it is, the dark one, cut open.
 
I got a meat boner right now from seeing these pictures.  I want to see some money shots of that blood sausage from the early pics too.
 
ok ... Now all the meat I purchased this refrigerated, but has not yet frozen.

Today I purchased 100lb or more. There fractional meat for a while. 
In my pantry are all kinds of stored meat. I live away from the big city and buy quantity to be stored.

Local meat not like a lot .... But great city for better quality and quantity bought...  I have two refrigerators full, if you want to show more.
 
Good Lord, that would cost a whole lot of $$ here.  If you don't mind me asking how much money does that cost?
 
Here cost equal to or much more expensive there. Although it should be infinitely cheaper, but it is not... On the contrary 
 
Here poor people, make meat only in photos, they can not buy... A paradox of the capitalist system.
 
Not your or my problem ... wish we could do something, but it is not posibble.

I just bought a cast iron grate to throw over my fire pit.  Been stocking lots and lots of White Oak to start grilling in this way.  Your BBQ looks amazing!  I can taste the Ribeyes now,   mmmmmmm.   
We've got nothng but White Oak up in Canada...not the Red Oak that those in the Lower 48 like to talk about.  What's white oak like to cook with?
 
Sunday here today is Father's Day and I'm having a family. Just finished lunch ... All waiting for the match Argentina/Bosnia. But I'm a little drunk and I think I'm going to take a nap, the football does not interest me or like me at all. 
 
Lunch was a piece of "empty". It is cut to the side of the ribs (the belly of the cow) Accompanying with some roasted potatoes with olive oil. Some are spicy powders, some not.

YES ... We eat a lot of vegetables, I would say too. I also took a diet of healthy food to the fullest. 
 
Weekends are exempt (when my wife is not watching me too) ... So I prepare hamburgers or whatever I can. 
 
I buy meat once a month, so purchase amount. First, is that buying this way I access the quality I want. Otherwise no can not locate an premium quality 5 Star

Thanks Essegi. This cut is called "Vacio"
Do Argentinians cook their meat a little more well-done than average?  Like, most of your cuts look to be cooked to at least medium-well and I've heard that ARgentinians like well done meat.  Any truth to that?
