I grew up eating beef tongue and thought it was one of the better pieces one could take off from a bovine quadrapod. Anymore, a beef tongue fetches $60 or so out in rural parts of the state however so that's off limits. Moose tongue, however, is always fair game and, while not the fine delicacy which caribou tongue is, we still enjoy it. Boil it, skin it, roast it. Mmmmm....with straight horseradish (or I just put it into soup....)

Moose tougue is always one of my families favorites. It has been my daughter's favorite food since she was 4 years old. She always insisted that all our guides bring in the tongue and I just dropped her and her moose hunting client off in camp this afternoon and I know the tongue will be packed in along with the ribs. then boiled and served cold with horseradish. We also like the heart boiled with green chilis, jalapanos and tomatoes.

Anyone smoke it? (yeah I know, hard to keep lit ) I haven't had the opportunity to try moose tongue but in my youth the local small town butcher, in addition to selling fresh beef tongue, smoked and also pickled it. Some of my favorite eats! Rarely find any tongue for sale now.
