Texas de Brazil is very keto-friendly if you focus on the flame-grilled meats and choose non-starchy sides like sautéed mushrooms or salads with low-carb dressing. The main hazards are the included Brazilian cheese bread, rice & beans, potatoes, fries, fried bananas, grain salads, desserts, and sugary sodas, all of which should be skipped.
