A soul food blast from the past, this is an old family recipe. Oxtails are slowly simmered, producing a savory broth that then makes a delicious gravy.

INGREDIENTS (for 6 servings):

PREPARATION:

  • Place oxtails, garlic, onions, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, Greek seasoning, and seasoning salt in a large stock pot. Fill with enough water to cover oxtails, and place over high heat.
