I love lengua but it’s been a long time since I’ve had it, thank you for reminding me of so many foods from my childhood that I’ve forgotten about. Your the best. Thank you Rosie. Cooking it in crockpot is a great idea.

[@RosieCooks]

Hi AMV, My mom made it like recipe number 3. I made up the salsa for the tacos in recipe number 2. My husband said his mother used to make him sandwiches, like recipe number 1. I have an Italian friend who told me that in New York City they sell beef tongue sandwiches in Jewish deli's. I never knew that. I learned so much from my peeps here on KZbin. Have a great day!

Delicious thank you sweetheart for sharing

Hi Friend. Thank you for the visit!

Awesome sauce!!

Thank you!

[@MASep-bs5um]

My Mom made the BEST! More delectable than any roast I've ever had. The flavor, the meaty texture - so good!

[@RosieCooks]

Hi Friend, of course your Mama's was the best. She sprinkled a little love into it. lol Thank you for the visit!

[@MASep-bs5um]

@@RosieCooks so great to have you share your recipe - thank you!

[@lettydelgado1112]

Wow all three recipes look delicious

[@RosieCooks]

Thank you my friend. It's so funny how some people love lengua, and others get so creeped out about it. lol

[@cookingwithsherry]

I’ll have to try it in the crockpot! My mom used to pickle her beef tongue . And we had sandwiches Good to see someone else do a video on the tongue . I’ve seen a tongue taco and next time I cook a tongue I’m gonna make that

[@RosieCooks]

Hi Sherry, beef tongue is just one of those things that either creeps people out or they try it and love it. lol Glad to see that you are my kind of person.

[@cookingwithdenise999]

A great choice for sharing. My mother made beef tongue when we were kids. We would eat it as a sandwich. I remember liking it. I am going to see if I can find it at a meat market. Thanks for sharing.😋😋😋😊😊

[@RosieCooks]

Hi Denise, beef tongue, ya either love it, or ya hate it. lol It is a little freaky looking. lol Glad you can appreciate it.

[@SmileyShawnSee]

Rosie's, That was very educational about the beef tongue. Great video❤️❤️

[@RosieCooks]

Hi Lashawn, a lot of people grew up eating beef cow tongue, as well as steak. Just like gizards, it can seem unusual to a lot of people. I love both gizards and Cal tongue. They are very tasty meats, but different than steak. Thank you for your visit!

[@sandypawz645]

Wow. delirious recipe!😋👌Thank you great share.

Hi Sandy, Beef Cow Tongue is a food that people can either eat or can't imagine. Lol I love beef cow tongue. It is very tender and delicious. Thank you for your visit!

Estofado de lengua o unas empanadas de lengua ! Gracias por el video informativo 😁

[@RosieCooks]

Thank you so much for the nice comment. I don't usually get comments in Spanish, even if the recipe is a Latino dish. When someone from the Hispanic culture actually gives me a compliment, it is very meaningful. I know that you appreciate the Lengua meal. Thank you so much for visiting my channel!

Its crazy how that cow was mother to some people

Hey Bleck boy, that's heffa to you! Lol

Hi Rosie and happy Wednesday. Great video. All three ways look so delicious! Can you do a flour tortilla video? I would like to see how you make your flour tortillas. How is your husband doing? Take care and sending Cali love. XOXO

[@RosieCooks]

Hi Lila, beef tongue is such an oddity. A lot of people see it and make faces. It is really quite delicious. Yea, and the flour tortilla video is something that I have tried, but haven't perfected.....someday. Hoping all is well with you!

[@edward2448]

Good Day Rosie, As a kid growing up in NYC I had this many times at the Kosher Deli's. Usually at the now closed 2nd avenue Deli. Thin sliced and piled high. Do you know why you remove the outer skin, that's the tastebuds and tongue is the only sandwich that tastes you back 😂. Have a Blessed and Beautiful Day ✝️✌️💘🙏🌹🌹😘

[@RosieCooks]

Hi Edward AKA, the one with corny jokes..lol I'm glad that you have tried it. I never knew that it was sold at Jewish deli's. You gave me that fact. Thank you for all your expertise!

[@patriciabrooks9782]

I love tongue, but I have never seen it in my grocery stores here. Thankfully, I'm very close to Western Meats. ❤ They refused to sell my late husband a cut of beef after he told them how it was going to be cooked. 😂"No, no, no! You want THIS." Thanks much!

[@RosieCooks]

Hi Patricia, I actually went to a Mexican market to get this tongue. Then I saw some at Smith's. I was so surprised that they had it at Smith's. I'm thinking not all Smith's will have it. Glad you have tried it.

[@raynrandy]

Looks good!! I cut mine down the middle & cook it uoside down. Sprinkle garlic powder pepper ,& salt in the slit you've made. do 4 cloves of garlic ( cut 2 inhalf & put in the slit) half yellow onion, 2 Bay leaves & 2 table spoons of apple cider vinegar. Fill with water to cover & cook on high for 3 hrs, then let rest 30-45 min before taking it out. We do noodles tacos & my favorite is to take smaller pieces & fry them slightly. Put on soft taco shell with sour cream, shredded cheese, radishes, romaine lettuce & green peppers. I was just hungry one day & came up with the past one lol. We also dehydrate the skin for our dog for treats. She loves them!!!

[@RosieCooks]

Excellent suggestions. You have a very luck fur baby. Thank you for the nice comment!

[@cherylagnew5980]

Hi Rosie 👋 It’s one of my favorite meats ! 👍😋👍

Hi Cheryl, when I made this, I knew I was gonna get both sides of the opinions. You either love it, or you're creeped out about it. Lol I am indeed getting all kinds of comments. Lol So funny!

All three from one tongue?

Hi Alan, this cow tongue was just under 3 lbs. For the sake of the video, I made all 3 recipes from 1 cow tongue. Seriously, it is very tender and tasty! TFW!

Did you have the crock pot on high or low?

[@RosieCooks]

Hi Michael, at first, I had to go back and look at the video. Indeed, I didn't say that I had the crock-pot on high. Although I notice that I did write it in the description box, along with the recipe. On your computer, press "show more" then scroll up and you will see all 3 recipes. Thank you for watching this video. A lot of people say "cow tongue..huh?" lol I get it, it does seem weird, but believe me it is very tasty.
