Beef Tongue. Not exactly something you'd find at a drive-through. I've had beef tongue in the past chopped up and smothered with Mexican seasoning, but today there's no hiding. Thinly sliced, and drizzled with Madeira sauce, I'm learning to cook Beef Tongue with Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook.
