Speaking of bad behavior, my daughter's boyfriend was inspired by my son ordering 3 servings of tongue so he made a stuffed tongue filled with ground pork seasoned Chinese style. He said the tongue roll was browned in a pan then braised in a sesame mirepoix. He had to go to Chinatown to get the tongue. He made it for a competition they had going at the restaurant he works at. The kid has some guts - hopefully, he won't be cooking up some guts next at the restaurant.
