Ushuaia Nov 2009 Sat 094Asado is Argentina’s twist on barbecue. The grill they use in restaurants holds an entire side of lamb, links and links of sausages and whole chickens. Our 4×4 off-road adventure simplified the grill, but not the amount of meat. Two tenderloins, a yard of sausages, and bits and pieces of beast I couldn’t recognize. A selection of salad fixings. The best of Mendoza malbec and dessert. Open air, around the pit, thunder in the air, a breeze from the Pacific off the lake. We had hiked for an hour along the shoreline. That’s after a couple of hours bouncing around in the back of a land rover. At one moment we slid forward, because the land rover was negotiating a steep incline. So steep it appeared to be standing on its front grill! There was a soupcon of adrenaline with every twist and turn. Fabulous fun!
