- Story Text: A meat-lovers dream occurred in Argentina at the Federal Grill Master Championship hosted in Buenos Aires on Monday (June 19).
In the contest, now in its fifth edition, the country's best grillers from all across Argentina gathered in the nation's capital to battle it for the title of the country's top grill master.
The grill masters were tasked to grill up a traditional Argentine "asado," and they were all given the same cuts of meat and extras to work with, including beef, chorizo sausages, fish, lamb, provoleta, and vegetables.
A total of 24 people competed in the contest near Buenos Aires' landmark Obelisk.
Argentina is famous for its "parrillas" and "asado" culture and for having some of the best beef in the world.
The cultural event was complete with food vendors, music shows, and other activities, all open to the public.
