Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ pounds beef oxtails, cut into pieces
sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons coconut oil, divided
4 medium carrots, divided
2 ribs celery, chopped
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
2 ½ cups red wine, divided
2 cups beef broth
3 cloves garlic, or more to taste, peeled
2 leaf (blank)s bay leaves
¼ teaspoon ground thyme, or to taste
2 medium turnips, diced
2 medium parsnips, diced
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring oxtails to room temperature and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear oxtails, until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side, then remove from the skillet.
  • Add carrots, celery, and onion to the pan. Saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes, then remove from the skillet.
  • Pour 1/2 cup red wine into the skillet and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes. Return oxtails and vegetables back to the skillet. Cover, reduce heat to low, and sweat the mixture until juices have been released, about 20 minutes.
  • Combine remaining wine, beef broth, garlic, bay leaves, and thyme in a slow cooker. Add oxtail-vegetable mixture and cook on High until meat is fork-tender, 3 to 4 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Toss turnips and parsnips with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil and season with salt and pepper. Place in a roasting pan.
  • Roast in the oven until tender and lightly browned, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Remove oxtails from the slow cooker. Pull meat away from the bones, shredding meat and discarding any bits of fat and gristle. Pour liquid from the slow cooker through a mesh strainer into a bowl, pressing against the vegetable solids to mash them and push them through.
  • Return strained liquid to the slow cooker and cook on High until reduced by about half, 30 to 45 minutes. Add roasted vegetables, oxtail meat, and parsley. Cook on Low until flavors have blended, 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Time 3h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 lbs oxtails, split into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon butter
1 large onion, peeled and chopped
3 pints beef stock
1 carrot, peeled and cut into thin slices
1 stalk celery, cut into thin slices
1 sprig fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh parsley
1 bay leaf
1/2 cup chopped tomato (canned is fine)
1 cup red wine (cabernet or merlot)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
6 peppercorns
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Melt butter, add pieces of tail in a large stockpot.
  • When the meat begins to brown, add onion.

  • Season with remaining ingredients and simmer until meat is very tender, about 3 hours.
  • Remove herbs.
  • Separate meat of the oxtail from the bones; discard bones.
  • Reheat soup and serve with a little of the meat in each bowl.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality oxtails: Look for oxtails that are meaty and have a good amount of marbling. Avoid oxtails that are too fatty or have a lot of sinew.
  • Brown the oxtails before simmering: Browning the oxtails adds flavor and color to the soup. Be sure to brown the oxtails in a hot pan so that they get a good sear.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for carrots, celery, and onions, but you can also add other vegetables such as potatoes, turnips, or parsnips.
  • Add the red wine early in the cooking process: The red wine will add a rich flavor to the soup, but it needs time to mellow out. Add the red wine early in the cooking process so that it has time to simmer and blend with the other ingredients.
  • Season the soup to taste: Be sure to taste the soup before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.

Conclusion:

Oxtail soup with red wine and root vegetables is a hearty and flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day or winter holiday. The oxtails are simmered in a rich red wine broth with carrots, celery, onions, and herbs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender. The soup is then served with mashed potatoes or rice. This soup is sure to become a family favorite!
