Host an Argentine night
Two tables: a Sunday asado that opens with choripán, and an empanada night.
An Argentine house may eat chorizo and then ribs from the same fire — that is the sequence, not a pile of unrelated mains. Empanadas can open the fire or be the whole evening without the grill.

Sunday asado
Choripán to start, then asado de tira. Chimichurri. Salad. Wine.
Light the parrilla early. When the chorizo is ready, bread and chimichurri — that is choripán, the opening, not a second dinner. Then the short ribs. Salad. Bread. Wine.
A few empanadas can wait with the first wine. They should not replace the fire.
