Sous vide

Chainsaw13 · 01-19-2018, 10:28 PM

12 hours into a cook of pork tongues destined to be in tacos for tomorrow's dinner. Got about 2.5lbs of tongue, a couple shallots, cloves of garlic, tomatoes, chipotles, pinch of cumin and Mexican oregano and a couple teaspoons of pork fat.

Will peel the tongues when finished and then chop. The liquid will be strained, then puréed to be added back to the tongue pieces as they lightly fry to crisp up.

Mmmmm tongue!

Pictures of the finished stuff would be great.

Here you go, the money shot. Cooked for 28 hours at 170°F. Super tender. I used the Serious Eats recipe, with a few mods.

F'n Beautiful! As my Brooklyn buddy would say.

Thanks for the pictures. I so need to try that.
