Originally, people used curved terracotta roof tiles to grill beef. Later, the tile was replaced by a thick stainless steel sheet resembling a shovel for digging soil, which is why some people still call this dish “bò nướng xẻng” (shovel-grilled beef).

For a long time, locals here have raised cattle for plowing and beef has become a main ingredient in many dishes such as beef stew, stir-fried beef with bitter melon, vinegar-dipped beef…; but the most famous is grilled beef on tile (bò nướng ngói).
Come to Mỹ Xuyên land
To enjoy tile-grilled beef and deepen the bond at Bãi Xàu.

The main ingredient of the dish is high-quality lean beef sliced thinly, marinated with MSG, sugar, salt, finely minced lemongrass, and topped with some roasted peanuts (shells removed)… Grill and eat as you go.

Rice paper, vermicelli noodles, and you can’t miss sour starfruit, pineapple, unripe banana, fresh herbs, fish mint, lettuce… The dipping sauce is meticulously prepared with fermented fish sauce mixed with pineapple, finely minced lemongrass, chili…

A unique, strange sensation spreads through, everything blends together to create quite an attractive mixed flavor: the sweetness of the meat, the richness of the fat and peanuts, the astringency of raw banana, the sourness of starfruit and pineapple, the salty-spicy taste of fermented fish sauce… all harmonizing, evoking the intense, rustic hometown flavor.

What could be more enjoyable than grilling the beef slices yourself by hand and savoring them right away while still hot? Share that feeling with friends and loved ones when you visit Mỹ Xuyên town.
