Tacos de Lengua

Sure Fire, Surprisingly Inexpensive and Awesome Taco Recipe

Tacos de Lengua

This is an authentic dish. Warning: this recipe is not for the food queasy. If that's you, you might want to just skip this one, or instead check out some of The North Coast Ranch grass-fed ground beef recipes. 

What? You're still here? Okay, don't say I didn't warn you.  

Here's the deal with tongue. Yup, I said it.  BEEF TONGUE!

Prepared correctly, it is melt-in-your-mouth tender (from slow braising) and flavorful (because it's a muscle that got a lot of exercise). 

If you chop it up enough the texture isn't an issue. Its home of homes is truly in a taco. 

The way you know you are at an authentic taqueria is that there are "tacos de lengua" (tongue tacos) on the menu.  

​Serves 18-24
