Anyone here cook with Oxtail?








I keep seeing chefs on tv cook with this cut of meat lately and as I love stews and meat and veg cooked in a slow cooker I thought I might try it.

Is it a very strong tasting meat?

Found this recipe I will try oxtail stew but wondered if anyone here had a recipe of their own.

Yes, very strong, that's why it's used. It's a wonderful slow braising meat.

Thanks Spot, I love meat on a bone and have my slow cooker. Seems to be popular at the moment and not as cheap as it used to be but I really want to try it. Neville a local butcher in the next town of Buckley is very reasonable so I shall go and chat him up in the morning:D

I seal mine in hot oil first and then put into a stew p-ot with garlic and onions. I give it a good few hours on low heat and then add carrots etc half an hour towards the end of cooking. Even better with some home made dumplings :-4:-4:-4

Hey you fellow crock pot lover...you might want to go online & get a good slow cooker cook book. They have loads of them. Amazon has some good finds and your local bookstore that has online selections should help.

You'll love ox tail stew, Chezzie! I usually go with the more Caribbean flavors when I cook it... it's very traditional around there, especially in Jamaica and The Bahamas.
