Boiled it for about one and a half hrs, skinned it, should probably cut a bit deeper than skin as there is a tough bit of tissue just under the skin, then smoked for two hrs until 190 or so. Needed more time, maybe a wrap for an hr ,but I did not have the time. The flavor to me is kind of corned beaf like. I used a lot of corriander. It was chewy. This was my first attempt at smoking tongue and it needs to be more tender. It would be really be good more tender.
 
I did a tongue this weekend. Boiled it with onion & garlic powder for 30 min. Injected it with garlic oil. Then smoked it for 2 h @250. Next wrapped it in foil with some beef broth for 1h @ 275. Then out of the foil for another hour @ 275. Removed it @180 and rested 30 min. Tasted real beefy but I also got the chewy result. Took it too work and people were surprised how much they liked it. Some non-know it all confused it with Brisket. :twitch: I am wondering about some overnight marinade? Any thoughts.
 
A friend of mine cooked tongue like a beef roast but only told me it was roast beef.

I have to say it was the most tender and flavorful roast beef I ever ate. He told me afterwards it was a beef tongue. I don't care to prep it, but I will eat it any time he makes it.
 
Tounge makes great sammies! cook it up how ever you like the chill it down and slice it thin! Thats good eats!
