Beef tongue is one of the best cuts of beef you’ll ever have! The texture is similar to melt in your mouth pot roast! The flavor is pure beefy goodness! Highly recommend this recipe if you can find beef tongue at your local grocery store.

    Slice, shred, or cube meat. My personal recommendation is the finishing step in this recipe!

    • Step 0

      Slice meat into cubes, use a half cup of juices, and use the remainder of the seasoning in a non-stick frying pan.

      Let the meat sit in the pan for a couple of minutes until meat forms a crust. Stir pan until all sides of the meat are slightly crispy.
