Step 1
Thread beef cubes onto metal or wooden skewers. Season generously with coarse salt and pepper on all sides.
Step 2
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high until very hot. Grill skewers 2 minutes per side for medium-rare; edges should char.
Step 3
While meat grills, melt butter in a skillet over medium. Toast cassava flour 2-3 minutes until golden and fragrant, then set aside.
Step 4
Warm rice and beans in a small pot or microwave until heated through, about 3 minutes.
Step 5
Whisk vinegar with 3 tbsp water and a pinch of salt. Toss with fresh tomatoes or cucumber if available for a quick salad.
Step 6
Arrange skewers on a plate with rice and beans, farofa on the side, and vinaigrette salad. Squeeze lime juice over everything.
