Oxtail in New York
Oxtail is the cut that rewards patience more than any other on a Caribbean menu. It is gelatinous and collagen-heavy, so a long braise turns what starts out tough into something rich and sticky that coats the rice around it. It is also the dish people are most particular about, because a rushed oxtail is immediately obvious.
How we make our stewed oxtail
Browned down first — sugar taken to the point just before it turns bitter, which is where the colour and the depth both come from — then stewed slow until the meat gives up the bone on its own. The sauce reduces with it rather than being thickened at the end.
