I believe the answer is:

hear

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'try' is the definition.
(as in to try someone in court or hear their case)

'organ meat spitting out the tail' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'organ' could be 'ear' (the ear is an organ) and 'ear' is found in the answer.
A single letter 'h' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hear that I've seen before include "Find out" , "Hark" , "Perceive with the ear" , "to judge" , "Be informed of" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
