Wagoner Rice Brazil

Rice Wagoner, Wagoner or simply, is a typical dish of the south region of Brazil (although, currently, is already incorporated into Brazilian cuisine and common taste it across the country). It is made of rice which adds jerky or dried meat shredded or chopped, sometimes sausage and sausage pieces, sauteed in quite fat with garlic, onion, tomato and smell-green. In the Midwest and Northeast of Brazil, it is also known as maria-isabel, and prepared with corned beef.




History

Arose when the carters (carriers of cargo) crossing the south of Brazil in carts pulled by oxen coziam in iron pot, a mixture of minced beef jerky (stew) with rice. This is a practical course which, in its simplicity, could be prepared by the lone traveler, who could only eat a barbecue (which is made from fresh meat) in a Paradouro after many days of travel.

Apart from refrigerator, the value is the corned beef carreteiro that, in Rio Grande do Sul, is known as beef jerky (prepared in charqueadas). This was kept during the many days of travel undertaken by carreteiro carrier charges. This, unlike the peddlers, who generally availed themselves of horse-drawn carts, not going from house to house or resort to resort but was still delivering their loads at the lower direct course to the destination.

Prepared originally based on beef jerky and rice and traditionally prepared in iron pan, it is one of the main dishes of the state's cuisine.

However, in modern times, the gauchos (or Rio Grande) prepare the rice with ground beef or barbecue leftovers and call it "chariot" in reference to the original name "rice carreteiro".
