Oxtail

Method

Oxtail

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oxtails

    Season the oxtails with salt and black pepper evenly on all sides.

  2. 2

    Sear the Oxtails

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned oxtails and sear until browned on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove oxtails and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same pot, add diced onion, minced garlic, chopped carrots, and chopped celery. Sauté until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Liquids and Simmer

    Return the oxtails to the pot. Add beef broth, bay leaves, thyme, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the oxtails are tender.
