Slow Braised Oxtail Recipe 465

BRAISED OXTAIL

Steps:

• Toss the ingredients together in a large bowl, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
• Take oxtails out of marinade and reserve onion mixture. In a heavy-bottom braiser over medium-high heat, brown both sides of oxtail in batches in olive oil, drain excess oil leaving just enough to saute onion mixture and thyme. After the onions and thyme are sauteed return oxtails to braiser and add enough water to cover 1/4 of the oxtails. Allow the liquid to come to a simmer. Put cloves and allspice into a sachet or tie in a cheesecloth, and submerge in liquid. Season with salt, cover, and put into a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 hour. Then add tomatoes, red and Scotch Bonnet peppers. Stir well and return pot to the oven for half an hour or until oxtails are tender. Check to see if additional water is needed during braising process. Seasoning with more salt is recommended when finished.

SLOW BRAISED OXTAIL RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• In a large casserole dish, marinate the oxtail with balsamic vinegar, garlic, and thyme. Let it marinate overnight or up to 24 hours. Remove the oxtail from the marinade and pat dry. Season with salt. Set aside, reserving the marinade. Preheat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat with your fat of choice. Brown the oxtail on all sides and set aside on a plate. Discard some of the oil if there is too much for sautéing. Add the carrots, celery, shallots, garlic cloves, and thyme. Sauté a few minutes just for color. Remove and set aside. Wipe out any excess oil again and return the oxtail once more. Pour the reserved marinade and stir to deglaze. Bring to a boil, then reduce so it is a low simmer. Continue cooking, topping with water as needed {it should be nearly covered as it cooks} for 2-2 1/2 hours. Add the vegetables and simmer another 20 minutes. Strain liquid into a saucepan and reduce over high heat until thickened slightly. Be sure to keep the oxtail covered so it doesn't lose its heat. Serve 2-3 pieces of oxtail with vegetables with accompanied sauce. I served it with sweet potato wedges also.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Dredge the oxtail in the seasoned flour, and shake off excess; set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a roasting pan over medium-high heat. Brown the oxtail on all sides, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the oxtails from the pan and set aside. Turn the heat to medium-low and melt another 1 tablespoon of butter in the pan. Stir in the shallots, garlic, onion, carrots, and celery. Cook and stir until the vegetables have softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the thyme, bay leaf, parsley, beef broth, and reduced red wine. Place the browned oxtail on top of the vegetables in a single layer, then bring to a boil.
• Cover with a tight fitting lid or aluminum foil, then bake in preheated oven until the oxtail is very tender and nearly falling off the bone, 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
• Once the oxtail is tender, remove the meat to a serving dish, cover, and keep warm. Strain the remaining braising liquid through a mesh strainer into a saucepan. Simmer over medium-high heat until the sauce has reduced to 2 cups. Whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and pour over the oxtail to serve.
