About Mr Chorizo & Parrillada

Smoky charcoal embers and massive timber-board feasts define this unhurried South American barbecue den in Wetherill Park. Run with warm, family-style care, the kitchen slow-grills hearty cuts over open coals rather than rushing them out. Groups gather for hefty wooden boards piled with asado ribs, sizzling chorizos, house-made chicken pamplonas, and crisp chinchulines. Order the empanadas to start, ladle on the garlicky chimichurri, and settle in for a leisurely meal that ends with caramel-rich flan.

  • Charcoal-Grilled Parrillada: Short ribs, house chorizos, crispy chinchulines, and chicken pamplona cooked slowly over open coals.
  • Feasting Platters: Oversized sharing boards like the Completo and Grande easily feed hungry crowds and families.
  • Unhurried Pace: Meats take time over the coals, with large platters best ordered ahead so the grill team can pace the fire.

Before you head over

Practical advice on pre-ordering, dining pace, and generous meat platters.

  • Pre-order large platters

    If you are planning to order the signature large Completo feast platters, call ahead to order in advance so the kitchen can time the traditional charcoal preparation.

  • Expect an unhurried pace

    Traditional parrillada cuts are prepared over slow-burning coals, so expect an unhurried dining pace rather than express quick service.

  • Plan around generous portions

    Portions across mixed platters like the Grande are substantial, often feeding more guests than listed and leaving leftovers to take home.
