Beef Tongue Sandwich By Rose Recipes

TONGUE AND MUSTARD SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Rinse beef tongue and place in a large pot. Cover with water and add the salt and chopped onion. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 2 to 4 hours or until tongue is tender.
• Remove tongue from cooking liquid and set aside until cool enough to handle. Cut through tough outer skin and peel it off. Trim any fat or gristle from base of tongue. Slice tongue crosswise into 1/4 inch thick slices.
• Slice loaf of rye bread in half lengthwise. Scoop out a small amount of the soft interior. Spread mustard over each half. Lay onions and tongue slices over bottom half of bread and top with other half and slice into individual sandwiches.

PICKLE MEAT (SPREAD FOR MAKING SANDWICHES) BY ROSE

Steps:

• 1. Wash your hands. Since my grinder had not been used in YEARS, I decided to wash all the parts first. I like working with clean tools. LOL
• 2. After assembling the grinder and placing a "catch" bowl under the mouth of the grinder, place the tip of the tongue into the upper slot of the grinder and begin the grinding process. Rotate the "catch" bowl as needed. It may be necessary to cut the tongue into pieces before grinding. Each grinder is different.
• 3. Clean all the grinder parts of the beef that sticks to the grinder during the process and add to the "catch" bowl. Add the 1/2 cup of mayonnaise and the 3 Tablespoons of sweet pickle relish. Mix to combine.
• 4. Place in a serving bowl so everyone can make a sandwich out of the pickle meat.
• 5. This is my first sandwich made with this batch of pickle meat! YUMMY! You can adjust the mayonnaise and pickle relish on the sandwich itself to make it taste the way you want it. Enjoy!! 3/2/13

PICKLED BEEF TONGUE SANDWICH BY EDDIE

Steps:

• 1. Put all the ingredients from the brine into a large sauce pan and stir well over low heat until the salt and sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil, turn off heat and let cool.
• 2. Place the tongue in a plastic container and pour the brine over the tongue using something to weigh down the tongue in the liquid. Refrigerate 4 to 5 days. On the 5th day remove the tongue from the brine and soak in fresh water overnight in the refrigerator.
• 3. Place the salted tongue in a pot along with the simmering ingredients, bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer 3 to 5 hours depending on the size of the tongue. The tongue is ready when very soft. Peel away the rubbery lining.
• 4. Serve the tongue hot or cold with horseradish and mustard. For sandwiches slice thinly and use ray bread with plenty of horseradish and mustard.

BEEF TONGUE SANDWICH BY ROSE

Steps:

• Wash your hands. Place the cooked beef tongue on a plate for slicing.
• Place two slices of bread on a clean working surface. Put a thin layer of butter on one slice followed by a thin layer of mustard (to your taste). On the other slice spread a layer of mayonnaise.
• Take a sharp knife and carefully start slicing the tongue beginning at the thick end (not the tip). Place the slices on one half of the sandwich.
• Top the meat with the other slice of bread forming a sandwich. Cut the sandwich in half for ease in eating it.
• Sometimes I cut my sandwich into quarters like this. This sandwich is especially good when accompanied by some bread and butter chips (our favorite sandwich pickle).
