Citrus-Cayenne Beef Tongue

Often overlooked, beef tongue becomes truly savory and tender after simmering in broth for several hours.

Method

Directions

  1. 1
    Place the tongue, carrots, onion, celery, leek, garlic, and bay leaves into stock pot. Add water until all ingredients are submerged. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for 8 hours with the lid on but tilted.
  2. 2
    Pull the tongue out of liquid and peel the outer layer of skin off. Chop the tongue meat into cubes.
  3. 3
    Heat the butter in a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the tongue, cayenne, lime, salt, and pepper to taste. Cook until tongue is browned all over.
