PICKLED BEEF TONGUE SANDWICH BY EDDIE

Steps:

• 1. Put all the ingredients from the brine into a large sauce pan and stir well over low heat until the salt and sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil, turn off heat and let cool.
• 2. Place the tongue in a plastic container and pour the brine over the tongue using something to weigh down the tongue in the liquid. Refrigerate 4 to 5 days. On the 5th day remove the tongue from the brine and soak in fresh water overnight in the refrigerator.
• 3. Place the salted tongue in a pot along with the simmering ingredients, bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer 3 to 5 hours depending on the size of the tongue. The tongue is ready when very soft. Peel away the rubbery lining.

PICKLE MEAT (SPREAD FOR MAKING SANDWICHES) BY ROSE

Steps:

• 1. Wash your hands. Since my grinder had not been used in YEARS, I decided to wash all the parts first. I like working with clean tools. LOL
• 2. After assembling the grinder and placing a "catch" bowl under the mouth of the grinder, place the tip of the tongue into the upper slot of the grinder and begin the grinding process. Rotate the "catch" bowl as needed. It may be necessary to cut the tongue into pieces before grinding. Each grinder is different.
• 3. Clean all the grinder parts of the beef that sticks to the grinder during the process and add to the "catch" bowl. Add the 1/2 cup of mayonnaise and the 3 Tablespoons of sweet pickle relish. Mix to combine.
• 4. Place in a serving bowl so everyone can make a sandwich out of the pickle meat.
• 5. This is my first sandwich made with this batch of pickle meat! YUMMY! You can adjust the mayonnaise and pickle relish on the sandwich itself to make it taste the way you want it. Enjoy!! 3/2/13
