Description
Beef tongue offers a wonderfully tender texture when cooked correctly - not to mention its health benefits. It is high in iron, zinc, vitamin B-12, and offers a tasty way to consume protein.
While it's not considered as popular when compared to more traditional cuts like steak, it's a real treat when it makes an appearance on your dinner table.
The tongue is a staple of many diets all over the world, particularly in Asia and South America. In these regions, it is used in BBQ meals and tacos. It is even traditionally enjoyed during the Jewish holiday of Sukkot.
For best results, we recommend either taking the Asian BBQ route of slicing it very thin before cooking in a short amount of time, or slow cooking it for six to eight hours with onions and garlic, or any substitutes you'd prefer. This will give it that soft texture and flavorsome taste.
