Have you ever had a barbacoa Taco? It is made from shredded beef or beef tongue and you top it with cilantro and onions... mmmmm

Finding tongue up here on the Oregon Coast is rare but the local grocery had them out the other day.

Score! I was raised by an Asian family so it will be prepared and devoured in that tradition.

There's a little Mexican fast-food place up in Cashiers, NC, that sells tacos de barbacoa. I was told (but don't know for sure) that it was cheek meat, not tongue. They were tasty, but too greasy, I thought.

They also sell tacos de lengua (tongue).

Yes --- those are very good. I think barbacoa on a corn tortilla with the toppings is one of the "healthier" kinds of Mexican foods for when you want think about health --- that and Caldo de Res.
