Brazas BBQ brings the unique flavors of Peru from South America to South Street

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Chef Juan Placencia is known here in Philadelphia for his roast chickens ever since he started Brazas BBQ Chicken as a ghost kitchen during the pandemic.

Now, he has a brick-and-mortar location, and his loyal customers are following him to South Street.

Rotisserie chicken is a staple in his native country of Peru, and Chef Juan's method makes a very juicy and flavorful dish. First they brine it, then marinate and finally roast it.

Chef Juan attended The Culinary Institute of America, and has worked in fine-dining around the country.

Now he wants to use his expertise to highlight the cuisine of his culture.
