Ingredients

  • 3 lb. oxtails
  • 1 (28 oz.) tomatoes
  • 3 carrots, sliced
  • 4 stalks celery with tops, sliced
  • 3 onions, diced
  • 3 potatoes, diced
  • 4 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 4 1/2 c. beef stock
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 6 peppercorns
  • 1 tsp. marjoram
  • 1 tsp. thyme
  • 1 tsp. ginger
  • 2 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen veggies (I like lima beans)

Method

  • Brown meat in olive
  • oil
  • in the bottom of a big pot or frying pan,
  • if using
  • crock-pot.
  • Dump
  • all
  • the
  • other ingredients in and simmer
  • for
  • hours or so.
  • I just put it all in a stockpot
  • and cook it overnight, covered, at 250° in the oven.
  • You have to cook
  • it a long time so the meat falls off the bones, otherwise it's frustrating.
