About Oxsvans

Oxsvans, known as oxtails, are a flavorful cut of meat derived from the tail of cattle, popular in dishes across various cuisines, including Caribbean, African, and Southern cooking. Rich in collagen, oxtails are particularly prized for their ability to create deeply savory broths and stews when slow-cooked. They contain protein and essential nutrients, such as iron and vitamin B12, which support energy production and healthy red blood cells. However, oxtails are high in fat and cholesterol, making moderation key for those monitoring heart health or calorie intake. The gelatin released during cooking is beneficial for joint and skin health, adding a nutrient-dense element to dishes. Typically incorporated into soups, braises, or rich gravies, oxtails are enjoyed for their tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture and robust flavor. While indulgent, pairing them with vegetables and whole grains can create a more balanced, nutritious meal.
