Once again, Dr. Flavio Ribeiro, a native of Brazil, a former graduate student in the Department of Animal Science, and current faculty member at Prairie View A&M University, came to ANSC 117, Texas Barbecue to teach the students something about Brazil and the very popular Brazilian style of barbecue. The Brazilian barbecue class always is a hit with our students, and wonderful beef was served to all.
The Brazilian style of cooking is very simple: meat, coarse sea salt, and fire/smoke. As usual, pictures are better than words, so here are some photos from class.
