Private Argentine BBQ Asado Experience in Buenos Aires

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: Portuguese and 2 more

This private class allows you to experience an authentic Argentine asado in a personal and interactive way. Instead of simply dining at a restaurant, you’ll step behind the grill and learn the techniques locals use to prepare one of the world’s most famous barbecue traditions.

Your host will guide you through every step of the process, including fire preparation, cooking methods, traditional cuts of meat, and the cultural importance of the asado in Argentine life. Because the experience is completely private, you’ll enjoy personalized attention, a relaxed atmosphere, and the flexibility to fully enjoy the experience at your own pace.

You’ll also pair your meal with local wine and classic Argentine flavors while sharing conversation and stories in a welcoming environment that feels more like a gathering with friends than a formal class.
