    Beef tongue

    Anyone eat it? Any cooking tips? Took my steer in and got butcher to keep tongue as I have never had before. Finding lots of online recipes, but figured you all are better than google.

    If I remember correctly our hired man would boil it first then you peel it and possibly roast after. It’s been years but remember it tasted good. My dags get it now. Fun watching them it eat.

      Yeah I’m half done boiling it. I’m hoping to try tacos and a sort of stroganoff style saucy meal too. Been curious my whole life. It’s a bit disturbing to be frank, but I’ll deal.

          Yeah I just peeled it. Outer skin comes off easy. But there is still a sort of rubbery exterior. Other than that, after slicing it looks like normal roast beef. It’s very tender and is actually pretty good. Took a while to put the first chunk in my mouth. It’s decent considering there was only bay leaves, pepper corns, and some allspice in the water as it boiled. It’s not like the tongue is a thin little strip that the spices can fully penetrate. I mean, what boiled meat is good really?

          It’s just one of those things I had to know. I’m making a sort of stroganoff dish tonight and tomorrow will try some in tacos. With seasonings it will be very good I figure.

            Go to Cookinpellets.com There is a real good tongue recepie there. Takes a little work but turns out good. Never made it myself YET but tasted it before

              Forgot to mention you should try Barbacoa (beef cheeks). Nothing better than that in tacos.
