Lengua Tacos (tongue)

It took me over a year, but I finally used the beef tongue that came with the rest of the cow quarter I purchased. I used this recipe http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/beef_tacos_de_lengua/

But instead of frying the slices at the end, i cut it up in the smaller pieces and fried the small pieces. I probably did it too long, but when I finally turned off the heat, the meat was rendered completely into crunchy chunks. It was a nice texture for tacos, so at least it wasn't mushy as I hear tongue often described.

I served it with queso fresco, red onion, avocado, tomatoes, salsa, and sour cream. I had corn tortillas and dh and kids had flour.
