Bring everything to a boil, then put that shit on low and let it simmer for 3 1/2 - 4 hours depending on the size. I used a bigger tongue than I'm used to cooking, so mine was a little chewy still. You REALLY want to cook it low and slow for as long as possible. A slow cooker, if it's big enough, would be pretty awesome for this application.

Recipe by feelz good man

Tacos de Lengua

1 cow's tongue 2 onions, halved and peeled 1 head of garlic, sliced in half Handful of bay leaves 2 Tbs-ish of whole peppercorns

Bring everything to a boil, then put that shit on low and let it simmer for 3 1/2 - 4 hours depending on the size. I used a bigger tongue than I'm used to cooking, so mine was a little chewy still. You REALLY want to cook it low and slow for as long as possible. A slow cooker, if it's big enough, would be pretty awesome for this application.
