Description: Bison Tongue is a muscular organ cut, known for its rich, unique flavor and tender texture when properly prepared. As a lean cut with minimal fat, it’s a nutrient-dense delicacy, perfect for dishes like tacos lengua, offering a healthy, protein-packed option with a slightly chewy consistency.
Cooking Suggestion for Tacos Lengua: To prepare bison tongue for tacos lengua, simmer the tongue in a pot of water with onion, garlic, bay leaves, and peppercorns for 2-3 hours until tender (internal temp ~195°F). Peel off the outer skin once cooled, then slice or chop the lean meat into small pieces. Sauté the pieces in a hot skillet with a touch of oil, cumin, and chili powder for 2-3 minutes to crisp slightly. Serve in warm corn tortillas with diced onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salsa verde for authentic tacos lengua, keeping the lean meat moist with toppings.
Price Blurb: Price is estimated on the high range but will be adjusted down once fulfilled as meat weights vary. Due to the limitations of online sales and Shopify.
