Additional details

Pork tongue is one of those cuts that surprises people. When prepared right, this flavorful meat works beautifully in everything from Korean BBQ to Mexican tacos, and it's packed with nutrition.

A Versatile Delicacy

Pork tongue, also called pig tongue, has a wonderfully smooth texture when you give it the time it needs. This cut has a mild taste that pairs well with just about any seasoning or marinade. We've seen home cooks braise it for hours until it melts in your mouth, or slice it thin for cooking in stir-fries and grilling.

What Is Pork Tongue?

Pig tongue is the tongue muscle from a pig. Known as lengua de cerdo in Latin American cooking, this organ meat has been prized for generations in cuisines around the world.

From Pasture-Raised Pigs

Our pasture-raised pork comes from pigs raised outdoors using regenerative farming practices. They root, forage, and express natural behaviors the way pigs are meant to. We never use hormones, antibiotics, or steroids.

Lean and Protein-Rich

Like most organ meats, pork tongue offers impressive nutritional benefits. This cut is rich in protein, B vitamins (especially B12), iron, and zinc to support energy, immunity, and muscle health. It's an excellent choice for nutrient-dense eating without sacrificing taste.

How to Cook Pork Tongue

We recommend two approaches for cooking pork tongue. For the slow method, braise it for six to eight hours with aromatics like onions and garlic until it's fork-tender. For the quick method, slice it thinly before cooking, then stir-fry or grill it with your favorite seasonings. Both methods work well as long as you don't rush the process.

Pork Tongue vs. Beef Tongue: What's the Difference?

Wondering about the difference between pork tongue and beef tongue? Pork tongue is smaller, cooks faster, and has a milder profile. If you're new to preparing tongue, pork is a great starting point since it's less intimidating in size and more forgiving in timing.

Perfect for Global Cuisines

This cut shines in traditional pork tongue recipes from around the world. Try it in Korean BBQ, Chinese braised dishes, Mexican tacos, Filipino adobo, or Vietnamese banh mi sandwiches. Every culture that values nose-to-tail eating has figured out that, when prepared properly, tongue becomes incredibly succulent.

Nose-to-Tail Eating

Using the whole animal, including cuts like tongue and pork liver, reduces waste and honors the animal we've raised. Organ meats were traditionally prized by butchers who knew these cuts offered exceptional nutrition. Our ethically sourced organ meats make it easy for modern home cooks to rediscover traditional recipes, while supporting a more sustainable food system.

Storage and Preparation Tips

Our pork tongue comes frozen, and we guarantee it for up to one year in your freezer. Once defrosted, use it within 3 days. When you're ready to cook, thaw it overnight in the refrigerator. After braising, peel off the outer skin while it's still warm.
