"Beefy"
Oxtails are a tried and true recipe beloved by all Jamaicans. It my brother’s
favorite dinner meal. Over the years my methods of cooking oxtails have greatly
evolved. I’ve eliminated soy sauce or browning and started naturally braised
and browning the oxtail to get the best color and develop richer flavors. I
choose not to mask the flavors by using water to stew it rather than wine or a
broth. It always turns out delicious. But at the end of the day sometimes a
great recipe can always stand to be a greater recipe. With that goal in mind over
the last year I have experimenting with new ways to make oxtail even more
flavorful than it already is. I’ve made
fried oxtail in a sweet sticky glaze, I’ve smoked it and I’ve curried it.
