Description

Meet at Humberto 1 3438 in Boedo to participate in a traditional Argentinian asado hosted by two brothers dedicated to their culinary heritage. The asado goes beyond grilling meat; it is a social ritual based on hospitality and patience.

The experience begins with the Fernet Ritual, where you prepare the “viajero,” a classic Cordovan drink, while learning about the Italian roots of this favored pre-asado beverage.

Next, the Fire Masterclass covers how to select charcoal or wood, control grill temperature by hand, and time the cooking for different meat cuts. You will learn about chimichurri, meat doneness, and the custom of applauding the grill master.

Asado continues with premium wine tastings from Mendoza, including Malbec, Cabernet, and signature blends. The guide explains how the Andean soil influences these wines to complement the meat perfectly.

The feast includes traditional starters like offal and provoleta cheese, main courses featuring classic cuts such as flank and skirt steak, and a traditional dessert enjoyed outdoors under the evening sky.

Participants leave equipped with the knowledge and skills to recreate an authentic Argentinian asado anywhere.
