I've never cooked with beef cheeks. In Mexico and the border states, like Texas, they are commonly used to make barbacoa. I've heard they have great flavor, but need a low, slow and long cook.

They tasted divine, definitely worth the effort. I did it just as I would do beef in red wine, except after two hours I took it out of the oven, removed the beef and thyme stalks then blended and seived the sauce before returning the beef and giving it another hour in the oven.
