Product Description
Experience deep, traditional flavour with our Fresh Halal British Whole Beef Oxtail – Prime, Grass-Fed. Sourced from young bull, grass-fed British cattle, this whole oxtail is rich in natural collagen and marrow, creating that classic gelatinous, melt-in-the-mouth texture when slow-cooked.

Left whole for maximum versatility, this cut is perfect if you like to cut your own pieces for stews, soups, curries, or braises. As it cooks low and slow, the meat gently pulls away from the bone, enriching your sauce or gravy with a deep, comforting beef flavour.

Ideal for Jamaican-style oxtail, Pakistani/Asian curries, West African stews, or classic European braises, this is a true butcher’s cut for serious home cooks and chefs who want maximum flavour and control.

Cooking Guide – Whole Beef Oxtail

Preparation:

• Keep refrigerated at 0–4°C and cook or freeze by the use-by date.

• For best results, cut the whole oxtail into thick slices or sections before cooking (or ask your butcher to do this).

• Pat dry and season generously with salt, pepper, and your choice of herbs or spices.

Slow-Cooked Whole Oxtail (6–8 Hours)

1. Cut the oxtail into pieces, if not already cut.

2. Heat a large pan with a little oil and brown the pieces on all sides until well caramelised.

3. Transfer to a slow cooker or heavy casserole pot.

4. Add onions, carrots, celery, garlic, herbs, spices, and enough stock or water to almost cover the meat.

5. Cook on low heat for 6–8 hours (or in the oven at 150–160°C) until the meat is tender and pulling away from the bone.

6. Skim excess fat from the top if needed, adjust seasoning, and serve with rice, mashed potatoes, polenta, naan, or crusty bread.

Braised Whole Oxtail (3–4 Hours in the Oven)

1. Preheat oven to 160°C (fan 140°C) / 320°F / Gas mark 3.

2. Sear oxtail pieces in a hot pan with oil until browned.

3. Deglaze the pan with stock, wine, or a mix of both, scraping up any browned bits.

4. Transfer everything to an oven-safe dish, ensure the oxtail is mostly covered with liquid, and cover with a lid or foil.

5. Cook in the oven for 3–4 hours until the meat is soft and gelatinous.

6. Rest for 10 minutes, then serve. The sauce should be rich, glossy, and full of flavour.
