What Is a Parrilla?
A parrilla is a traditional Argentine grill where meat is the star of the show.
It’s a quintessential part of Argentine cuisine and culture. Parrillas feature a variety of cuts, from the classic chorizo sausage to the prized steak. Meats are grilled over wood or charcoal, lending a smoky, savory flavor.
The grill’s open design allows the flames to lick the meat, creating a beautifully charred exterior. Parrillas are social hubs where families and friends gather to share a meal and experience the art of grilling.
