Did you go with the "Rodizio", if so you had the "Picanha". It's a really tender steak and they leave some fat on it to give an amazing flavour. The "Feijoada" is basically black beans with pork cuts, dried meat and sausages and they serve it with rice and the traditional "Farofa". Check out the pics.

it was what they called the Rodizio experience you didnt leave hungry....
I did have the feijoada, and they brought out skewers of different meat, they had a tender sirloin that was marinated in a olive oil and sea salt, pineapple/pork, turkey wrapped in bacon,

I'm going to get some in a few minutes . Plenty of Brasilian restaurants close by me. Here in the US, the Rodizio is less then half the amount of food the Rodizio in Brasil is. In Brasil the meat is non stop, kind of like here in the US, but there are 5-6 choices of meat all the time.
