Frequently Asked Questions
Ox tongue is a traditional British beef cut taken from the tongue of cattle. When slow-cooked, it becomes tender, rich in flavour, and ideal for slicing, braising, or serving cold.
Simmer gently for 2–3 hours until tender, peel the skin, then slice thinly to serve warm or cold.
Yes — it’s high in protein, iron, and vitamin B12, supporting energy and immune health.
Absolutely — once cooked, chill and slice for sandwiches or cold meat platters
Ox tongue is a specialist cut that requires skilled preparation and longer cooking times, so many supermarkets no longer stock it. It’s more commonly found at traditional butchers or specialist meat suppliers.
Ox tongue contains approximately 210 kcal per 100g, depending on preparation and cooking method.
Classic recipes include slow-cooked ox tongue with onions, ox tongue in gravy, Caribbean-style braised tongue, or thinly sliced cold tongue with mustard and vinaigrette.
