INSTRUCTION:
MAKE THE CHIMICHURRI SAUCE:
- Take a small bowl and add the crushed garlic, red pepper flakes, chopped parsley, & oregano.
- Add the salt & pepper, olive oil, & vinegar in the same bowl and mix them with the whisk or spoon.
- Then taste the sauce adjust the seasoning if required.
- Put it aside for 3 to 4 hours so that the flavor develops perfectly.
- We can also make this one day before to make it more flavorful.
PREPARE THE GRILL:
- We can set the wood or charcoal grill by creating a slow and indirect heat zone so that the meat cooks slowly and perfectly
- This can be done by burning the coal to a medium heat level.
- If you are using the gas grill then adjust the burner to low or moderate heat.
- Make one side hotter for searing the meat and make the other side somewhat cooler to cook the meat.
SEASON THE MEAT:
- Take the beef ribs, flank steak, short ribs, & chicken and apply the salt, olive oil & pepper on them.
- This meat is simply seasoned with salt and pepper so that the natural flavors will not be eliminated.
GRILL THE MEAT:
- Apply the oil on the grill with the brush and first grill the chorizo sausages.
- Put these Chorizo sausages on the hot part.
- Grill the sausages for ten to fifteen minutes till they get brown and perfectly cooked.
- After that, we put the beef ribs from the bone side and slowly cook them for 1.5 to 2 hours flip them with the tongs every 30 minutes.
- Cook them till they get tender and get char from outside.
- Then put the flank steak on the hot side of the grill.
- Cook the steak for about three to five minutes from each side to make it medium rare.
- Now in the last, we grill the chicken on medium heat for about 45 minutes.
- Flip them occasionally after every 15 minutes till they cook perfectly.
- The cooking time of chicken also depends upon the part of the chicken and its size so check it occasionally to ensure that it is cooked properly.
SERVE:
- When everything is cooked perfectly then slice the flank steak against the grain, and you can also slice the chorizo sausages if you want.
- Then arrange everything neatly on the large platter and then drizzle the chimichurri sauce over the served meat and also put the sauce on the side for dipping.
TIPS:
- You can marinate the beef ribs and flank steak in the chimichurri sauce for one to two hours before we cook them to make them more flavorful.
- We can keep the grill temperature consistent and not increase or decrease the temperature to avoid the uneven cooking of the meat.
