The Most Highly Requested Recipe Ever! Let's Make Some Juicy, Tender, and Delicious Oxtail

[@krene8583]

If you put small cut up potatoes in the pressure cooker when oxtails are done and cook an additional 10-15 minutes on sautee it will automatically thicken the sauce as the potatoes dissentegrate into the mixture. This is an alternative to straining the liquid and using cornstarch. Im from the Caribbean try it.

[@JamaicanFoodLovers]

Facts ! Potatoes does wonders for the gravy

[@8obbysworld]

That sounds even better

[@boirocr-Tamiko5]

I agree I'm not Caribbean but my family and I do the potato method 🤤😋💕

[@ytrbro1041]

or you can pour some flour in some cold water stir and pour that in, that will thicken up the gravy.

🇯🇲 here 🙋🏽‍♀️ we don’t put carrots in our oxtail (it changes the flavor) and the main spice that gives oxtail its flavour is Allspice (what we call pimento seeds). Butter beans or Lima beans is what we put in broth when stewing down.

[@NativeNomad10]

Stop the nonsense, i am Jamaican and i put carrots in my oxtail, it doesnt change the flavor, it taste really good in it. i also use broad beans not butter bean. In fact traditionally Jamaican oxtail used broad beans.

[@julianjiaconnie1841]

I've actually gotten around the cost by substituting turkey next instead of actually using the oxtail. They are still just as meaty and as effective. The flavor profile is just as substantial for the flavor of what you're looking for a traditional oxtail recipe and you get more bang for your buck especially as far as quantity. It's called "oxtail dupe "

That oxtail is pretty. You don’t need to blend the seasoning just put it in after the meat is half cook to let it cooking with the meat and 👍🏼👍🏼on the searing before cooking.

Ugh! Why didn’t you post this yesterday when I was looking for ox tail recipes 😂. I just made this for the first time today. I did a traditional beef braise with wine, broth, onions, celery, carrots, etc. I did find some browning sauce which adds richness. Mine came out tender and the sauce was amazing though I didn’t add thickener, just reduced after separating the fat. Next time I’ll try with the Jamaican spices. Also your ox tail looked much better than mine. Got mine from Costco and had to trim a lot of excess fat and silver skin. Where did you get yours?

[@ElegancebyDelly]

As always this will be awesome

[@feliciasquintessentialcuis6463]

I blend up a half a can of butter beans and add it to the oxtails when they are tender then add the remaining can of whole beans when the sauce has thickened to warm through then serve.

[@WadeLivin]

God bless you! Thank you for this recipe! 🙏

[@gfs45]

Two things: We don’t separate the gravy, and we don’t add thickeners which can dilute the flavor . We get our gravy thickened by letting it go low and slow and adding the butter beans towards the end or a few diced potatoes. Also, adding chunks of seasoning that are not blended, especially escallion or spring onion helps with the gravy. The beans help with the gravy thickening. We then skim off the fat from the pot.

[@maynee1710]

Love some Jamaican oxtails, yummmmy...🎉 Kudos on a great job. Do need to add some butter beans which will also thicken the gravy. We're here for a good time and a LONG time.😊😊😊🎉

[@Philosific]

Before i give my critique, I’ll give the props. For most Jamaicans, the fact you pull out the pressure cooker, is a throwback for us and made this nostalgic. I think problem is this, it’s more appearance cooking than cooking for authentic flavors and great taste, so you’re doing a lot more work for it to look good but not actually tasting authentic or even great like a hearty meal and working harder. What do i mean? For starters, literally a fourth of the browning used was required. Which could have also the place or need for Soy sauce, Beef broth, Slurry which would then next eliminated the need to even make an actual gravy. With certain authentic ingredients like vegetables that you already used to complement the dish, that would give you a better tasting meal, at a cheaper price and even much more healthy and possibly quicker. It’s almost the meal is being made before it’s actually cooked, like a piece of Ikea furniture out of a box. Ik for my taste palet alone i would have took one bite and said “no”, cause the fact that the meat is tender, does nothing for taste.
