“Let’s Spice Up Your Dinner Time: A Simple Step-by-Step Guide to Perfect BBQ Oxtail”
Ingredients:
3 lbs of succulent oxtails
1 medium-sized yellow onion, finely chopped
2 tbsp of my secret homemade BBQ rub/seasoning OR your favorite store-bought BBQ seasoning
2 tbsp of vegetable oil to coat everything nicely
3 cups of tangy BBQ sauce for that extra zing
A splash of liquid smoke for an authentic BBQ flavor (I used a little over 1 tbsp)
3 cups of beef broth OR chicken broth OR water for added depth of flavor
Cooking Steps:
1. Kickstart the process by placing the oxtails and chopped onions into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the oil all over the ingredients ensuring they’re nicely coated, then sprinkle your chosen BBQ seasoning all over the oxtails.
2. Transfer the seasoned oxtails and onions into a large pot and place it over medium-high heat. Allow them to brown nicely.
3. Once browned, remove the oxtails and onions from the pot and place them into your slow cooker for the next phase.
4. Return to the pot you just used and pour in your chosen broth or water.
5. It’s time to add in the BBQ sauce and a splash of liquid smoke. Mix everything together and let it simmer for 5 minutes over medium heat.
6. Pour this mouth-watering barbecue sauce mixture over the oxtails in the slow cooker. Secure the lid on top and let everything cook on LOW for 6 hours.
7. Once cooked to perfection, serve your BBQ oxtail with your favorite sides.
8. Now, all that’s left to do is ENJOY your homemade, succulent BBQ oxtail!
