The prized Argentine beef cut that’s a must-have for any Asado feast. Known for its bold beefy flavour and tender juiciness, Vacio is a flank cut that’s often compared to brisket—but with its own distinct texture and taste.
Price range: £85.26 through £119.56
If you’re a fan of real barbecue flavour, Vacio is a cut worth getting to know. This prized Argentine beef cut is a staple at any proper Asado and is loved for its deep, beefy taste and juicy tenderness. Taken from the flank area near the belly, it’s sometimes compared to brisket, but it has its own unique texture and character.
Vacio has a great balance of lean meat and fat, with a thick outer fat layer that slowly renders as it cooks. When grilled over fire, that fat crisps up beautifully while the meat stays tender and juicy inside.
It’s a brilliant cut for low-and-slow cooking over charcoal or wood, letting the smoke and heat bring out its natural flavour. Slice it up and serve with a fresh chimichurri and you’ve got something special.
Whether you’re putting together a traditional Argentine Asado or just looking for a cut that really shines over fire, Vacio delivers big flavour and a proper barbecue experience every time.
