  • Score fat cap of picanha and lather with olive oil. Season with sea salt all over.
  • Add steak to indirect grill, fat cap side down, and smoke at a low temperature (250F) for just under 2 hours. After about 45 minutes, flip picanha so fat side is up. Cook until you reach your desired internal temperature (i.e. Medium Rare will be around 118F).
