I had the butcher shop I use order me in last week, a Lengua/Beef Tongue, some people call it A-Licker. Cooked it in the pressure cooker yesterday, for 50 minutes with a bay leaf, red pepper, and some other spices. Let it cool naturally, Peeled the skin off. Sliced it up and made Brown Gravy w/mushrooms in it. Mashed potatoes. and fresh cooked zucchini squash w/tomatoes, onions. garlic, salt and pepper in the skillet. Boy oh boy was it ever good. Now I just finished off a sandwich of tongue and it was even better than last nights dinner. I would eat this any day of the week over roast beef for sure. If you ever had it you know what I am talking about and if you have not, you really do not know what you are missing out on.

I used to sell them in my meat market, but only because corporate made me. I probably threw away 75% or more.

boiled, peeled and smoked makes the best taco meat IMO.

Only time I had it the lady pressure cooked it, pealed the skin off then battered and pan fried it like CFS. It was pretty good, but sure seems like a lot of work.

I can find them at HEB stores when I am in Texas. In Missouri you have to have the butcher shop get them for you. I gave $6.99 lb for it up here.
