The Mavin's Way To Pickle Beef or Tongue

Directions

Place the meat in a deep glass bowl or a stoneware crock.

Pour the quart of water into another glass bowl.

Add the remaining ingredients, mix together, and pour over the meat; add enough water to cover.

Tightly cover and refrigerate.

It is best to keep this in the coldest part of the refrigerator.

Mark your calendar: For best results, marinate for 19 days.

Every 2 days turn the meat, using wooden spoons.

Add water if necessary, but ONLY A LITTLE BIT, or the meat might spoil.

At the end of the pickling period, discard the pickling water, and wash the meat with cold water.

It is ready to cook
