Granado has some recipes for cow's tongue pastries -- an
empanada and another in puff pastry.  They're boiled, then baked in
the pie with bacon and spices.  He also has some recipes for calf's
tongue -- stuffed with meat, cheese, bacons, eggs, and garlic, and
then roasted; and a couple of stews.  I don't have time to translate
them right now, but could do so when I get back from my vacation,
if you're interested and can wait until then.

Oh, but you want no pork.  Sorry, none of these qualify.  :-(
