Where it comes from
A documented association, qualified. BBQHQ records which source documents the link and does not make claims about authenticity.
- Argentine asado — documented in
What it goes with
Grouped by how the pairing is known rather than by how good it is. The first group is somebody else’s statement; the last is ours, and says so.
Documented in the same tradition
A source documents both this and the food within one tradition, without pairing them in a single sentence. The tradition is the link, and it is named.
- Picanha, whole — Recorded as one of the condiments set on the table at an asado.
- Sausage — Sausage is part of the same documented sequence of an asado.
What this rests on
- The City of Buenos Aires describes chimichurri as parsley, oregano, garlic and onion, and salsa criolla as bell peppers, onion and tomato. Both are table condiments at an asado rather than sauces applied during cooking.
