Ingredients

  • 1 kg beef ribs
  • 1 kg flank steak (entraña)
  • 500 g chorizo sausages
  • 500 g morcilla (blood sausage)
  • 2 red bell peppers
  • 2 zucchinis
  • 2 large onions
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Olive oil
  • Fresh parsley
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • Juice of 1 lemon

Preparation

  • 1.

    Prepare the grill and make sure it’s very hot. If using charcoal, let it burn until covered with white ash.

  • 2.

    Season the beef ribs and flank steak with a generous amount of salt and black pepper on both sides.

  • 3.

    On a skewer or grill pan, place the chorizo and morcilla sausages.

  • 4.

    Slice the red bell peppers, zucchinis, and onions into thick slices. Brush them with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

  • 5.

    Prepare the chimichurri by finely chopping parsley and garlic. Combine with red pepper flakes, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, and olive oil. Season to taste with salt.

  • 6.

    Place the meats on the grill. Start with the beef ribs and flank steak, cooking them for about 20-30 minutes, turning occasionally for even cooking. The sausages can be grilled for about 15-20 minutes.

  • 7.

    Once the meats have a nice char and are cooked to your desired doneness, add the vegetables to the grill for the last 10-15 minutes.

  • 8.

    Remove everything from the grill and let the meats rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  • 9.

    Serve the meats with the grilled vegetables and a generous amount of chimichurri sauce on top.
