Anyone got a recipe for smoking an Ox Tongue
I visited Japan recently and ate some smoked tongue (Delicious it was
too!). Does anyone have a reliable recipe or advice on a suitable brine. I'm going to use my water smoker. |

I'm going to use my water smoker. I had one a year ago that a guy just threw on his New Braunfels smoker and let sit for about 6 hours. There is a membrane which dries and separates from the real meat. It is kind of like a papery shell after being in the smoker. I think that tongue could have used another couple of hours. It was not dry at all, but it seemed like it could have been more "done". It was tasty, though. I have two beef tongues in my freezer now, and I am planning to smoke them. I have a newly acquired New Braunfels smoker/grill without the side box. I also have an ECB which has been modified per the FAQ, and has been further modifed into a double-stack unit, which I call the ECB MKII. I have also modified the firepan from the FAQ, by adding a "baseplate" made from an old air-bake cookie sheet. The legs pass through this, and give it much better stability. I will be interested in the responses to this post, because I am trying to decide if spices or rubs will add to the flavor of the smoked tongue. -- Tank Welcome to the "Q" Zone |

I think there is a technique for blanching the tongue in boiling water to
pull the membrane off first. Any Mexican Lengua experts out there?
