    You can do that; but an awful lot of the magnificent flavor goes into the stock; and it takes hours. On a rack in a pressure cooker, with the liquid just up to the rack, it takes from 20 minutes for lamb tongues (I like to put one in with my squirrels), up to an hour for a full sized beef tongue; and the meat is lots tastier.
