Había quien preparaba su banquete con un _hocico con carrilleras_, una libra de _tapa del cencerro_, u otras despreciadas partes de la res vacuna, o bien con asadura, bofes de cerdo, sangre frita y desperdicios aún peores.

Some would prepare their feast with a snout and jowls, cuts from the beef neck, or other discarded cuts of beef, or else with offal, pig lungs, fried blood, and even worse scraps.

Beba's idea of cuts from the beef neck makes sense since that's where the bells are attached.

Hi Mark. I suppose the words " bell-cover" that the IA found for you come from the meaning of the expression "a cencerros tapados". :-) https://laspalabrasdescarriadas.es/2026/08/11/el-significado-de-a-cencerros-tapados/
No relationship whatsoever with cheap pieces of meat.
Your idea of chuck tender - which is not tender at all- seems much better.

Suggested by AI: Some prepared their feast with beef snout and cheeks, a pound of ‘bell-cover,’ or other despised parts of the slaughtered animal; others made do with offal, pig’s lungs, fried blood, and scraps even worse than these.

'tapa del cencerro' podría ser cap of neck ??? (pero solo es deducción a partir de la palabra 'cencerro', no certeza, porque no conozco eso); tiene que ser un corte barato, muy despreciado en la cocina.
