Super-easy and soooo delicious! My first attempt at preparing tongue (thuogh I had enjoyed it often as a child) and I plan to do it again and again, using this very recipe. The meat came out tender and delicately seasoned. As a bonus, the skin came off much more easily than I had thought it would - I was expecting somewhat of a struggle!

Very tender tasty tongue. Great hot or cold; makes a great sandwich. The spices are reminiscent of good corned beef.

Your spiced beef tongue recipe is confusing in that it says it takes 5 hours to prepare, but cooking time ranges from 10 to 12 hours. Needs some clarification. Bill
CDKitchen Note: No, it says it is ready in > 5 hours (more than 5 hours - think back to grade school math class and the "greater than" symbol) which is merely a classification of recipe. Always follow the directions for exact cooking times.

8 hrs. on low turned the tongue to mush!
CDKitchen Note What model slow cooker are you using? There is one brand that heats far too hot to cook properly. That brand used to be great but the newer models are horrendous. Most recipes you'll find online are meant for slow cookers that heat properly.
