CaptC Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 Not tried oxtail and you are right - very tasty meat. Nadine Dorries has a recipe for Ostrich anus spag bol? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTaylor91 Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 Not used oxtail but have used short rib to make a ragu. I imagine it would be similar. Took a fair amount of time but was in a different league to just mince. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some of the marrow in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some of the marrow in there. what i mean is that i would put it in the slow cooker until it fell off the bone...........i usually make oxtail with lots of vedge and a big ole norfolk dumpling ontop love the flavour of oxtail....the bone is an intergral part of the flavour.........cant understand why oxtail soup dosnt taste of oxtail at all...Hmmmmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. The hairy bikers had a recipe for it - it looked really good and I thought it sounded a nice change from the faitly standard gravy based braises I tend to do. I sort of followed the recipe but left out the mushrooms and used some extra wine to thin it out at the end because mine was quite thick. It's really good from slow cooking it with the bones in - I could have just scooped it out of the pan with fresh bread and skipped the pasta!
