Step 1
Make your side dishes in advance. Prepare fresh salads and a range of breads to be served with the meat, once cooked.
Step 2
Build a fire using a pile of wood and coal.
Step 3
Allow the wood to burn away, leaving hot coals. This may take around 30 minutes.
Step 4
Set up the cast iron grill so it is approximately 8 inches above the coal.
Step 5
Chop the beef into your desired cuts and sprinkle it with salt.
Step 6
Place the larger cuts of meat onto the metal skewers, or straight on to the grill, first to give them longer to cook. They should be slowly cooked at a low temperature for at least two hours.
Step 7
Add your chorizo, offal and ribs to the grill.
Step 8
Make sure to turn the meat every 15-20 minutes to ensure even cooking.
Step 9
Cook these until the meat is cooked through and slightly charred on the outside, usually for 45 minutes to an hour.
Step 10
Allow to rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 11
Serve your Asado meats with bread and salads on the side.
