The ideal cut for real nose-to-tail eaters
If you've only ever seen tongue in its sliced form on the cold meat counter, a whole one might be a little bit intimidating. But persevere: you'll definitely be very pleasantly surprised. Our halal grass fed beef tongue is a frugal cut, but that's not its only merit – it's also divinely tender with a yielding, open texture and delicate flavour. Perfect for cold cuts (of which you'll get a lot from one tongue) it's a favourite ingredient in many Asian cuisines.
**Suitable for home freezing.

Reared to the highest welfare standards, all our halal beef comes from free-range, grass-fed cattle. We believe in sustainable, ethical farming methods that work with nature to produce really amazing meat while taking care of the environment. You'll taste this in our halal beef mince – it isn't a bland vehicle for added flavours, it's hearty and tasty in its own right.

To cook your organic ox tongue as a joint, place it in a large casserole with enough beef stock to cover it. Add carrots, shallots, celery, garlic and herbs with a pinch of seasoning. Cook in a low oven for three to four hours. When the tongue is tender, remove from the stock and leave to cool briefly before peeling off the outer layer of tough skin. Slice thickly and serve with a rich gravy made from the stock. If you want to use your ox tongue as cold meat it can be gently brined before poaching to give it a longer shelf life.

As with most offal, tongue is a cut about which people can be squeamish and we understand why. At the same time, we're firm advocates of the philosophy of eating everything we can from a carcass, not just the prime cuts and bits that look neat. At Healthy Halal, the highest level of animal welfare is critical to our grass fed livestock system so every piece of meat they produce is the very best quality, including the inexpensive cuts.
