A delicious traditional Southern dish. Many people are put off by the thought of eating beef tongue but it's actually a very tender, flavorful cut of meat. If prepared correctly that is. Leftovers make great sandwiches when served with mayonnaise.

How To Make southern style beef tongue

2Note: Beef tongue is much larger than those from veal or lamb; the smaller tongues are excellent and should be used more often. Beef tongue can be bought smoked, corned or fresh, while the smaller ones generally are uncured. Smoked tongue may be salty, needing to be soaked in cold water, so be sure you read the label.
