Stewed oxtails are a rich, flavorful dish commonly enjoyed in Caribbean, African, and Southern cuisines. The dish features oxtails, which are cuts of beef from the tail, slow-cooked with vegetables, aromatics, and spices like thyme, garlic, and allspice in a savory broth or sauce. Often accompanied by rice, beans, or root vegetables, the extended cooking process tenderizes the meat, creating a hearty and comforting meal. Oxtails are an excellent source of protein, iron, and collagen, which may promote joint and skin health. However, they are also high in saturated fat, so portion control is key for balanced nutrition. The inclusion of vegetables brings vitamins and fiber to the dish, enhancing its nutritional profile. While indulgent, stewed oxtails can be part of a wholesome meal with moderation and a focus on complementary sides.
