Tonybel's post got me motivated to try some lengua tacos for Memorial Day. Got about a 5 lber.

Then I skinned it. It's no harder than filleting a fish.

Then I tied it and rubbed it and put it on BGE at 275° At 11:40 am.

I took it off and wrapped it at 160° with a little beer.

It's still going at 275° right now. Will post more pics when it's done.

Reached 200° so took off.

After responsibly resting

Chopped

Tacos with salsa verde and pick de gallo

They were good but need to be more tender and juicy. Maybe marinade next time.

i am addicted to taquerias and i always hated lengua then i tried it from a place that pulls it not slices it. amazing. they braise it with a bunch of bay leafs and ground chiles. let it go longer in the foil till it pulls its way better.

Nice skinning job! I just did my first tongue a few weeks ago. Boiled it first before smoking. It was amazing. Even the Missus who couldn't get her head around what she was eating was like :shock: It was melt in your mouth pretty much. Will be getting another next time I see one.

Did you boil it with the skin on? How long? Peel it before smoking? How long to smoke?

Learning to BBQ · May 31, 2016

Boiled with skin on for a couple of hours. I pretty much used thirdeye's method.

Just the thought of eating tongue... well let's just say I'll hold mine!

Looks good! It's funny every time I tell someone I'm cooking tongue they tell me I'm crazy and no one will ever try it. Yet it's $7.00/lb at my grocery store.
Somebody's buying it!
