Beef Cheek Tacos & Beef Cheek Pie

cowgirl · Dec 20, 2014

Had a few people over for a very relaxed gathering in my old shop during deer season. We did this the last couple of years, they are starting to expect this every year.
It was a lot of fun. :grin:

Set up the double burner, heated onions and peppers first in a bit of oil, then added beef cheek meat that I had prepared in advance.

heated tortillas...this was self serve style..

seasoned the shrimp with Brethren Wickedcajun's PookieG Dayum. It was a big hit!

Used some of the beef cheek meat for a pie.

Started with shredded tatoes..

filled with the meat, onions, peppers, smoked cheese and seasoned with Pookie G and Big Poppa's Jalapeno rubs..

a bacon lattice and into the BPS drum til hot and bubbly...

drizzled with some Thomas Q sauce...

I make these pies a lot with leftover pulled pork but liked the beef cheek meat for a change.

Sorry for so many pics but thanks for looking!

I've been wanting to try beef cheek meat, Jeanie. How long does it take to cook?

Moose, thanks! I simmer the meat until it's falling apart tender (about 8 to 10 hours). Then I cool it, separate the meat from the fat and bag it for the freezer until I need it. It's really handy to have around and SO quick to fix for a party. I simmer the meat in beef stock, onions, garlic, and seasoned salt. Then I re-season if needed when heating for tacos. :becky:

As always, no words can describe how delicious your cooks look. I really like the idea for the pie.

That's amazing Jeanie! Quite the coincidence because just today I was thinking what to do with the beef cheeks in the freezer. I know now.:-D
