Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Chop the carrots, onion and potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Set them aside.
  2. Preheat a Dutch oven with olive oil on medium-high heat. Brown the oxtail on all sides until it's golden brown.
  3. Season the beef generously with salt and pepper. Add the veggies and bay leaves into the pot.
  4. Add the water and stir to combine.
  5. Cover the Dutch oven with the lid and bake the oxtail for at least 2 hours (you can bump this up to 3 hours if you have the time). You'll know they're ready when the oxtails fall off the bone easily. Enjoy!
