Beef tongue

[tallbm]

 
Well I skinned it.  Wasnt easy.   Before and after pics.

Gonna get brining tomorrow.  

I tied the thin part over to try to get uniform thickness.

Wow I bet that took some effort!

I've only ever cooked it in the oven.  I split the thick skin and seasoned inside the split and all around and then into the oven wrapped in foil.  Once cooked the skin comes right off.

I'm also interested in how it turns out, best of luck! :)

Nope, I am in shame.

I didnt get it in the cure that night, then life happened and I forgot about it.

Threw it out.

I will do it again for sure.

Have done a few beef tongues, I like them this way:
- boil them for 3 hours (in water put salt, garlic, pepper, - and whatever else you want to flavor)
- skin them - much easier after boiling
- let them cool down a little
- smoke them at 160 F for about 2 hours (you can smoke warm immediately, or chill them and then smoke the next day)

Then serve warm - or - chill, slice thin and serve cold (my favorite)
