Servings

For the Picadinho:

  • 1 1/2 pounds tenderloin cut into 1/4 inch (6 millimeter) chunks, or sirloin or equivalent, 680 grams
  • kosher salt as desired, freshly ground
  • black pepper as desired, freshly ground
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 8 grams
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 30 milliliters
  • 2 ounces Bacon cut into small cubes, slab, 57 grams
  • 1 onion finely chopped, small
  • 3 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 1 cup brown ale 240 milliliters
  • 1/2 cup beef stock 120 milliliters
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon mustard Dijon, 15 grams
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 15 grams
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tablespoon parsley chopped, 4 grams

For the Beurre Manié:

  • 1 tablespoon butter softened, 14 grams
  • 1 tablespoon flour 8 grams

Instructions

To make the picadinho:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the beef, salt, pepper, paprika and flour. Mix well so all the beef chunks are coated.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the beef and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until browned. Remove to a bowl or plate and reserve.
  4. Add the cubed bacon to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, or until the fat has rendered and the bacon is no longer raw.
  5. Stir in the onion and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened.
  6. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until fragrant.
  7. Pour in the brown ale and cook, using a wooden spoon to loosen all the browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until reduced by half.
  8. Add the beef stock, brown sugar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaf, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  9. Bring the mixture to a boil, and then lower the heat to medium-low. Return the beef to the pan, cover and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the beef is very tender.

While the beef simmers, make the beurre manié:

  1. In a small bowl, stir together the butter and flour.
  2. Add the beurre manié to the beef, and cook, uncovered, over medium heat until the gravy thickens.
  3. Remove the bay leaf. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  4. Stir in the parsley and serve immediately.
