This farmer by me has oxtail for a good price. How would I go about making this?

Spg rub and smoke until tender? Never smoked oxtail but it looks fire.

Traditionally you’d braise oxtail.

If you can’t do that low and slow is probably the way to go - but I’m not sure how tender it would get.

 

[mplsdunk]

I could braise it then smoke it so it doesn’t get over smoked.

A braise, smoke, quick char sounds good. That's a crazy expensive amount of oxtail though, would love a reasonable source like that gets you a full tail.

 

[elpablo21]

Did it once for a small time catering gig. Smoked and then braised and they liked it

 

[mplsdunk]

I think he sells it so it makes sense to smoke so much.

I just rolled up to this farm because he had a sign saying he sold beef and chicken. and he had a shed with freezers full of beef tongue, oxtail, beef sausage, fresh eggs, honey and you name it.

Dude just had a cam and a square card reader so you serve yourself, Super smart.

Also is this the dude that gave those white kids in his neighborhood oxtail for the first time?

 

[mplsdunk]

I smoke mine at 225 for 2 hours then confit it in beef tallow for 3 hours then back on the smoker for an hr to get a nice bark and crunch on the outside .

I use to just put them in a big pot for 6 hrs but I like the smoke flavor and crispy texture from the smoker

 

[mplsdunk]

Damn that sounds like move right there.

I did it for the first item for the July 4th holiday. We are Carribean so obviously normally pressure cook. Wife loved them smoked but the ends got burnt. So I would definitely regulate heat to 200-250 and maybe wrap in a banana leaf or something else. I smoked on the top shelf and had a foil pan at the lower one to collect drippings. Later on I moved the oxtail into into their juices.

 

[mplsdunk]

I’ll cop one next time I’m at that farm and throw something together. Probably just be a combo of all your guys cooks.
