Easy Asado
Asado Paraguayo is a beloved tradition in Paraguay, much like Argentina's famous Asado. It's a time for families and friends to come together and enjoy a delicious spread of grilled meats, accompanied by salads, veggies, and of course, Sopa Paraguaya—a must-have dish. While beef takes the spotlight, you'll also find pork, lamb, and chicken on the grill. Popular cuts like vacio (flank steak), costilla (short ribs), and entraña (skirt steak) offer a variety of flavors that everyone enjoys.

Notes
How to Store & Re-Heat
Cool grilled meats to room temperature, then wrap tightly in foil or store in an airtight container for up to three days. Reheat in the microwave until heated through, being careful not to overheat.
Make-Ahead & Freeze
To prepare asado in advance, salt the meat and refrigerate it overnight. This allows the salt to deeply penetrate, enhancing flavor and juiciness. However, freezing is not recommended as it can affect the texture and taste.
