Step 1
Bring stock to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Add beef tendon and tripe slices, stirring to separate.
Step 2
Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 12 minutes until tendon is fully tender and tripe edges curl slightly.
Step 3
Stir in soy sauce. Taste and adjust salt—the broth should taste bold and savory.
Step 4
Crush Sichuan peppercorns lightly with a spoon to release numbing oils. Divide between two bowls.
Step 5
Ladle hot broth and beef into bowls. Drizzle each with 1.5 tbsp chili oil and scatter peppercorns on top.
Step 6
Top with sliced scallion (mostly white parts for heat, green for garnish). Serve immediately.
