outsidethebox Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Had an oppurtunity to try cow tongue. I was all set to try it, I will pretty much try anything. But at the last minute I chickened out. I'm starting to regret not at least trying it. Everyone loved it, but they are used to eating it. Should I have tried it, or did I make the right choice? I want to hear all about your experience with tongue.

I want to hear all about your experience with tongue. When I first read your post I thought you were an on the farm freak and was considering an intimate relationship with a cow. I was going to suggest the milk loaded teets because it was more nutritious than the tongue. Sorry for jumping to such a perverted conclusion.
gatorbait Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 I had it once and it was actually pretty good. Would never try cooking it at home though, I wouldn't even know where to start. I wasn't expecting a food thread haha

BringBackFergy Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Used to have pickled tongue at Basque restaurants in CA and NV. Basque restaurants are french right? Like Basquestille?
Johnny Hammersticks Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Had some delicious beef tongue "lengua" tacos at this amazing Mexican restaurant in Burlington. Tender and delicious meat.
CowgirlsFan Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Yes. Only way to learn how to prepare it better. My sister made chili one time.On the way out the door she asked what I thought. I told her it was GREAT! She told me it was venison.( but don't tell Mother ) Since then she's never made it without the venison.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 I don't wanna taste anything that can taste me back.
bdutton Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 I had it when I was a kid. Made a sandwich out of it.... thinly sliced with some mustard. Very good.
ExiledInIllinois Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Not tongue. But there is a guy at work that eats: http://en.m.wikipedia.nom.si/wiki/Menudo_(soup) Gets it from a local joint (gotta ask him where again) that he says is the best around. Only place his elderly Mexican father will eat it from I am not brave enough to try it. Have to call it pancita, or I can't get past the boy band thing! :-/
