Biro-Biro rice

Naturally, in a list of grilled side dishes, rice could not be missing.

This biro-biro rice recipe is perfect and goes very well with grilled meat. Seasoned with parsley and chives, this biro-biro rice from the Chaco restaurant also accompanies bacon bits, corn and fresh peas.

mayonnaise

Classic and dear to lovers of good barbecue, mayonnaise is considered by many to be an indispensable accompaniment when preparing that barbecue. And if it’s a hit with critics and audiences, we’ve fetched a recipe from the experts at Fogo de Chão that’s sure to take your barbecue to another level in terms of flavour.

chimichurri

Chimichurri is that ideal sauce to accompany various meats. But have you ever wondered why this simple sauce goes so well with barbecue? This perfect balance between chimichurri and meat happens because the acidity of the sauce softens the fat in the meat, giving it a more pronounced flavor. Now that you know why chimichurri should accompany your barbecue, try this chimichurri recipe from Chef Melchior Neto. You can count on the clock: it takes just five minutes to prepare, and three ingredients are enough.

Banana crumbs

Let’s face it, if your barbecue doesn’t have farofa, it isn’t truly complete. So, in order not to spend so much time in the kitchen but to guarantee yourself a delicious side dish, this banana farofa recipe is the perfect option, as it combines convenience and lots of flavor with another favourite, the banana. Made in just 20 minutes, this version shared by chef Melchior Neto is not only practical, but also guarantees a different touch to your barbecue, as it contains tomato, a little sweet paprika and black pepper.

Passion fruit sauce

Do you like that little sauce to go with sausage and chicken? Try chef Melchior Neto’s passion fruit sauce, ideal for those who want to go outside the box when it comes to grilled side dishes. And it doesn’t even take much, all you need is a blender, four ingredients and a little bit of the compliments from your barbecue friends to prepare this delicious passion fruit sauce and rock it with another perfect accompaniment.

bacon hug

This bacon pamper recipe is for grillers who really want to step up their barbecue. In this side dish, the boiled potato balls and coalho cheese are “embraced” by a thin slice of bacon, which makes it very tasty and very easy to make.

pineapple vinaigrette

Last but not least, the famous vinaigrette. In this recipe by chef Melchior Neto, the vinaigrette is accompanied by chunks of pineapple, onion, parsley and plenty of vinegar. The chef’s advice for this recipe is to leave it in the fridge 20 minutes before serving, so that the pineapple vinaigrette cools down to contrast well with the grilled meat.
