The Costela Burger, translating to 'Rib Burger', is a relatively modern invention, drawing upon Brazil's rich tradition of slow-cooked, smoked, or grilled beef ribs (costela). While burgers themselves are American in origin, the incorporation of uniquely Brazilian barbecue techniques and flavors into a burger format represents a fusion of culinary traditions.

Función Premium
The Costela Burger boasts a rich, smoky, and deeply savory flavor profile, dominated by the tender, slow-cooked rib meat. Often complemented by strong cheeses and flavorful sauces.
The primary flavor comes from the costela (beef ribs), which are typically smoked or slow-cooked for extended periods, resulting in exceptionally tender meat with a pronounced smoky flavor. The meat is often seasoned simply with coarse salt and pepper to allow the natural beef flavor to shine. The burger often includes strong Brazilian cheeses like Queijo Coalho or Queijo Minas, adding a salty and creamy element. Common additions include chimichurri, a vibrant herb-based sauce, or a creamy catupiry cheese sauce for added richness. Other possible additions are caramelized onions, or vinegarette-like salsas

Slow Cooking is Key
The ribs must be cooked low and slow to achieve maximum tenderness and flavor. Smoking the ribs is ideal, but slow-cooking in the oven or using a slow cooker are also viable options.
Quality Ingredients Matter
Use high-quality beef ribs and fresh, flavorful toppings. The quality of the ingredients will directly impact the overall taste of the burger.
Don't Overcrowd
While flavorful toppings are great, avoid overcrowding the burger. Too many ingredients can mask the flavor of the rib meat.
Toast the Bun
Toasting the bun will help prevent it from becoming soggy from the juices of the rib meat and sauces.
