Is the word temperados the same in Brazilian and European Portuguese?

Yes.

The meaning, grammar, and spelling of "temperados" are identical in both Brazilian and Continental Portuguese. The only difference is the pronunciation. In Brazilian Portuguese, the vowels are generally more open and the rhythm of the word is more melodic and syllable-timed. In Continental Portuguese, unstressed vowels are much more reduced (often becoming a near-silent "schwa" sound), which makes the word sound more clipped and consonant-heavy.
