    Lengua

    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.

    Is the flavor and texture similar to any other cut of beef?

    Are they as good as frog legs, squirrel brains and tongues, turkey necks, and carp fish with the red streak removed? If so count me in!
