About Beef oxtail
Beef oxtail is a cut of meat derived from the tail of cattle, prized for its rich flavor and tender texture when slow-cooked. Originating as a staple in traditional European and Jamaican cuisines, oxtail is often used in stews, soups, and braised dishes. Packed with protein, collagen, and iron, it offers nutritional benefits that support muscle health and joint repair. The collagen present in oxtail is particularly valued for promoting skin elasticity and gut health. However, oxtail is relatively high in fat content, including saturated fat, which should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Its slow-cooking preparation helps release deep flavors and nutrients from the bone, making it a cherished ingredient in hearty, comforting meals across cultures.
