JAMAICAN OXTAIL STEW RECIPE - NYT COOKING
Here is a midwinter cook-up of deep fragrance and lingering heat, a trade-wind stew that emerged in Jamaica and made its way north. It is oxtail stew, brown and steaming, light with ginger and thyme, pungent with allspice and soy, a taste of the Caribbean to warm winter’s heart. You could make and eat it today while reading Derek Walcott poems as the afternoon vagues into indigo — or allow it to cure into greater magnificence overnight, and stretch out its gravy for the course of a week. Paired with bowls of coconut-scented rice and peas, a staple of the Caribbean diet, it makes for an excellent family dinner or a transporting lunch, as if the flavors within it were a spur to memories of better times, in warmer climes, with soft sand on your feet and a kiss of sun upon your shoulders.

Steps:
- Season oxtails aggressively with salt and pepper. Heat a large Dutch oven or a heavy-bottomed pot over high heat. Add brown sugar to pot and melt, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it darkens and starts to smoke — about six minutes. When sugar is nearly black, add 2 tablespoons boiling water. (It will splatter.) Stir to mix.
- Add the oxtails to the pot, working in batches, stirring each time to cover them with blackened sugar, then allowing them to cook, turning occasionally, until they are well browned. Remove oxtails to a bowl and keep warm.
- Add half of the onions, garlic and ginger to the pot, along with the pepper, the thyme, the allspice and a third of the scallions, and stir to combine. Allow to cook until softened, approximately 5 minutes.
- Return the oxtails to the pot along with any accumulated juices and put water into the pot so that the oxtails are almost submerged. Bring to a simmer and then cook, covered, approximately 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- Add remaining onions, garlic and ginger to the pot, along with another third of the scallions. Add sugar, soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine and continue to cook until the meat is yielding and loose on the bone, approximately one hour longer. Remove approximately one cup of liquid from pot and place in a small bowl. Add flour to this liquid and stir to combine, working out any lumps with the back of a spoon. Add this slurry to the pot along with ketchup, then stir to combine and allow to cook a further 15 minutes or so. Remove Scotch bonnet pepper and thyme stems. Fold butter beans into the stew and allow these to heat through. Scatter remaining scallions over the top. Serve with white rice or rice and peas.

JAMAICAN OXTAIL STEW | ALLRECIPES
I searched high and low for an authentic Jamaican oxtail recipe. It will almost remind Americans of beef stew. I've spent days watching Jamaican cooking videos and international cooks; I wanted to identify what ingredients and techniques were mostly consistent across the board. This recipe is as authentic as it gets, next to being in Jamaica. Be sure to use all fresh veggies and feel free to adjust to your own spice levels. Enjoy with saffron rice or rice and peas. It's rich in flavor, texture, and taste. The meat should literally fall off the bone. So good luck and enjoy!

Steps:
- Clean and trim excess fat off oxtail. Stem and seed habanero peppers.
- Combine onions, bell peppers, 1 habanero pepper, scallions, ginger, thyme, garlic, and beef bouillon in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until a paste-like consistency is achieved.
- Season oxtails with 1/2 cup of the blended mixture, jerk seasoning, browning sauce, and soy sauce. Massage mixture deep into oxtails; cover, refrigerate, and allow to marinate, 8 hours or overnight.
- Remove from refrigerator and let stand until room temperature, about 30 minutes. Remove oxtails from the mixture, reserving marinade.
- Heat olive oil in a large pot with a tight-fitting lid over medium heat. Add oxtails, turning and browning on all sides, about 6 minutes. Add 90% of the reserved marinade, ketchup, and cover. Cook until oxtail has created its own juices, about 15 minutes. Add water, remaining habanero pepper, allspice, and bay leaf. Cook over medium heat until tender, stirring often to prevent sticking, 2 to 3 hours.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Reduce heat and let simmer, 15 to 20 minutes. Add beans and tomatoes; let simmer, 5 to 10 minutes more.

- In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, heat oil. Season oxtails all over with salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear all pieces of oxtail until golden on all sides. Remove oxtails from pot and set aside in a large bowl. Add half the onion and half the green onion and cook until soft, 6 minutes. Add ginger, garlic, tomato paste, thyme, and allspice berries and cook until mixture is fragrant and tomato paste has darkened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Add flour and cook, stirring frequently, until no longer raw, 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove pot from heat and return oxtail to pot. Add chiles and 4 cups water to the pot and return to medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cover and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Skim fat occasionally if desired. After 1 hour of cooking, add remaining onion and green onion. Stir in brown sugar, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until meat is tender and falling off the bone, 45 minutes to an hour longer. Remove chilis, fold in butter beans, and garnish with green onion. Serve over rice.
