About this experience

Step off the tourist trail and into a Brazilian backyard, where fire, flavor, and friendship come alive.

This isn’t just a meal, it’s your backstage pass to the churrasco ritual that defines Brazil’s social life.

In Pipa, you’ll be welcomed into a real home, not a studio, and guided by a passionate churrasqueiro who reveals fire-starting secrets and carving techniques usually passed from father to son.

Around the flames, you’ll taste farofa, vinagrete, and pão de alho that locals call “mandatory,” sip endless caipirinhas or ice-cold chopps, and discover why every slice of picanha carries both smoke and story.

Guests often say this feels like being invited to a friend’s party rather than booking a tour.

It’s lively, generous, and filled with those moments that become the highlight of your trip, new skills, new friends, and flavors you’ll crave long after leaving Brazil.

Groups are intimate and seats fill fast, so secure your spot today.
