Then peel, slice thin and make sammich.

hmmm, peel? I'm not sure I could eat a meat I had to peel......just keep cooking it. No, I never had tongue, nor face of cow....mostly just parts between tail and neck, and above ankle.

LOVE Oxtail stew.Quite common in parts of the UK,Central/Eastern Europe (where I first tried it) & Asian cuisine.Not easy to find them now compared to years ago,but a couple local deli's - butcher shops still stock them. Carrots,mushrooms,onion,celery,potato chunks (unpeeled if their extra nice),red & green bell pepper,small amount of minced garlic,fresh cracked pepper,tomato sauce/juice,bit of worcestershire sauce,brown sugar,dried thyme/oregano & parsley..... Oh yeah!! Brown them in flour first in cast iron skillet,then add the onion/celery/bell pepper.Add remaining ingredients to crock pot or dutch oven.Simmer for 4-6 hours until they fall apart....Served with crusty bread & plenty of good dark ale or something like Guinness,Spaten Oktoberfest or similar Lager even.

Crap.....I'm hungry now.

When I do whole hog cook outs, the cheek meat never leaves the cutting table, it is passed to the cutters. Don' rule out face either.

And smoked pork hocks make for some good soup base. Don't rule out ankles either.

Last night I had braised pork shank (schweinhaxe at your German gasthaus) at a newly opened local Brewpub/restaraunt. WOW. Just as I expected. I knew there was a reason I just had a light snack for lunch yesterday ...ate it ALL & normally most places I take home 1/2 to 3/4ths of my meal for the next day.

Growing up I remember having smoked shanks w/ sauerkraut fairly often.Roasted in oven to get that nice crisp crust on the outside Am mostly of Irish/Scotch extraction but I learned to like a variety of foods starting in early teens.Even as a very picky eater at age 7-8,still loved kraut w/various sausages or pork ribs.

as much as we North-easters would like to make fun of you mid-westers, you guys really got it going on pretty good out there. The midwest really is an eclectic place, with a lot of different enthic heritage....we dont got a lot of that kind of variety. We got chain restaurants, and pub food....ethnic here is seafood ....is joke. Not too too far from me is an...Italian Steakhouse.....WTF is that? Italian steak is lamb right? I fear no food, and even eat things I do not care for, just in case my pallet has changed since last time..I make effort to find face, tail, and ankles....then we can discuss.

Crock Pot pulled pork

1 2liter bottle root beer
cover with the root beer
set up in am on low 4-5 pm drain pull apart and hit with your fav BBQ Sauce

My wife makes one similar, but uses Dr. Pepper instead of root beer and cooks it in Chipolte peppers in Adobo insted of BBQ sauce.
