Brazilian barbecue, or 'churrasco', has roots in the traditions of the gauchos, the cowboys of the pampas grasslands. Their open-fire grilling techniques heavily influenced how meat is prepared in Brazil, evolving to include regional variations and flavor profiles. The adoption of barbecue sauce, likely influenced by American cuisine, adds another layer to the modern Costela BBQ.

Costela BBQ is characterized by a harmonious blend of smoky, savory, and sweet flavors. The slow cooking process renders the pork ribs incredibly tender, while the barbecue sauce contributes a tangy sweetness and complex spice notes.
The primary flavor component is the rich, savory taste of pork ribs, intensified by the smoky char from the grilling or smoking process. The homemade barbecue sauce typically includes ingredients like tomatoes, vinegar, brown sugar or molasses, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic, onion, and various spices (paprika, chili powder, cumin) to create a balance of sweetness, acidity, and spice. The slow cooking allows the flavors to meld and penetrate deeply into the meat.

Low and Slow
The key to tender ribs is cooking them at a low temperature for an extended period. This allows the connective tissue to break down, resulting in melt-in-your-mouth texture. Aim for temperatures between 225-275°F (107-135°C).
Homemade BBQ Sauce
While store-bought barbecue sauce can be convenient, making your own allows you to customize the flavors to your preference. Experiment with different spices, sweeteners, and vinegars to create a unique and delicious sauce.
Basting Technique
Basting the ribs with barbecue sauce during the last hour of cooking helps to create a sticky, flavorful glaze. Be careful not to baste too early, as the sugars in the sauce can burn.
Resting Period
After cooking, let the ribs rest for at least 15-20 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender and flavorful meat.
