3 pounds oxtails
Paula Deen’s House Seasoning
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 can beef broth
1 cup red wine
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
6 cloves garlic, large ones cut in 1/2
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 bay leaves
1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
1/2 Vidalia onion, cut into 6 wedges
6 small new red potatoes, cut in 1/2
4 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch lengths
1 pot hot buttered rice

Directions

Preheat oven to 300 to 350 degrees F.

Sprinkle the oxtails liberally with House Seasoning on both sides.

Coat the bottom of a heavy oven-proof Dutch oven with the olive oil. Once heated, add the oxtails and sear on all sides. Remove and set aside. Scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the beef broth, red wine, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic cloves. Stir. Add basil, oregano, bay leaves, hot sauce, tomato sauce, and the reserved oxtails. Stir to combine all ingredients together.

Cover tightly, place in oven, and bake for 2 to 3 hours.

Remove from oven and bring to a simmer on stove top. Add the sweet onion wedges, red potatoes, garlic and carrots to the pot. Cover and simmer until potatoes are almost tender, roughly 15 minutes.

Serve oxtails with the vegetables over hot buttered rice.

Missing or conflicting info: 1. HOW MUCH, AND WHAT KIND OF "hot sauce"? Tabasco? Frank's Red Hot? Boars' Head something? Sriracha? 2. Two conflicting instructions for the addition of the GARLIC cloves - do they go into the stovetop mixture pre-oven, or at the end? Both of these methods are in the instructions. Thank you, Patty

My husband and I love this recipe! You can even adapt it to cook in a slow cooker. Comes out wonderfully every time.

This has the most wonderful flavor, however, it tore my stomach up! I will fix this again, however, I am going to drain some of the grease off before adding the vegetables.

rated 5..easy & super delicious. Even better after refrigerated overnight. (I used drinking wine as I do not like the taste of cooking wine. Local supermarkets have small bottles of wine so I did not have to buy larger more expensive size. It cost about $3.99.)
