Description
We are delighted to announce that we have partnered with the world’s best steak restaurant El Capricho for the limited supply of selected ox beef cuts now available at Basco.
El Capricho Churrasco is a cut from the rib of the ox beef characterised by its marbling and correspondingly very pleasing taste. Also known as Tira de Asado or Argentinean-style beef short ribs. Our Churrasco beef short ribs are cut differently, crosswise across the bone, so that each piece has larger, thin portions of meat interspersed with the rib making them perfect for grilling on a hot BBQ. Often referred to as ‘flanken’ style, or galbi in Korean cuisine.
These meaty short ribs are typically seasoned only with salt, then grilled for a few minutes on the BBQ and paired with chimichurri sauce. They are also suitable for cooking in a conventional home oven drizzled with olive oil, covered in foil, and cooked slowly at 180 degrees (fan assisted) for 30 to 40 minutes.

The Source
El Capricho by José Gordón
The story of El Capricho restaurant in the tiny village of Jimenez de Jamuz in Leon is the stuff of gastronomic legend. For the last 25 years, its proprietor, José Gordón, has devoted himself almost religiously to the pursuit of the very finest meat to serve in his restaurant. Little could he have ever imagined that his lifetime’s work would wind up in El Capricho’s steak being judged as the world’s absolute best by a series of renowned international publications. It all starts with the animals. José travels far and wide to find the finest oxen available, choosing mature animals whose meat has been sculpted by a lifetime of work in the open fields. He brings each ox to his natural, organic farm in order to fatten them before slaughter, a process that typically takes 5 years, during which time the meat becomes marbled with the characteristic fat and subtle nuances which lend the final product an unmistakable taste. After slaughter, the meat is hung to cure at low temperatures for 90 days – intensifying the already spectacular flavours. The result is meat unlike any other. Time Magazine called it “the perfect steak”. American Vogue food writer Jeffrey Steingarten described it as “probably the greatest steak I’ve ever eaten”. The guardian featured El Capricho as the best place to eat steak in the world.
