Uruguayan BBQ Experience

Description

In the tranquil, tree-lined neighborhood of Carrasco, your private party is welcomed to a warm backyard gathering unlike any other. Here, the grill isn’t just for cooking—it’s a stage where Uruguay’s rich culinary traditions unfold.

You’ll be greeted by the inviting aroma of wood smoke and sizzling meats, and the evening begins even before the first bite. As a Mastercard guest, you’ll enjoy early access to witness the magic in its raw form: the asador lighting the fire, seasoning select cuts, and preparing the perfect coals. With a chilled local drink in hand, you’ll gain insight into centuries-old barbecue techniques that define Uruguayan cuisine.

Before the feast, roll up your sleeves for a special moment: learning to craft your own chimichurri. This punchy green sauce, bursting with herbs and spice, is the soul of every great asado—and now, it’ll have your personal touch.

Once seated, prepare for an abundant spread: prime cuts from one of Montevideo’s top butchers, seasonal vegetables roasted to perfection, melted provolone, salads, fresh bread, and homemade chimichurri. Vegetarians will feel just as indulged. Drinks include robust tannat wine, craft beers, and fresh juices—and dessert is a sampler of Uruguay’s sweetest traditions.

This experience isn’t just a meal—it’s a memory made around the fire.
