Don’t let the name scare you; Oxtails are some serious Soul Food that’s guaranteed to excite your taste buds! In the south we braise oxtails for hours in a rich broth and serve them with hearty sides like rice, mashed taters, or even collard greens.
The Oxtail is a cut of beef taken from the tail of a cow. It has plenty of heavily marbled meat surrounding the bone; and when it’s cooked Low and Slow, it reminds me of an extra-rich tasting short rib or pot roast.
You want need a lot of special ingredients for this recipe; just grab some Oxtail and a few veggies from the supermarket and let’s get to smokin’!
Remove any excess fat from the outside of each piece of oxtail and season with a good dose of your favorite BBQ seasoning. I’m using my Killer Hogs Hot Rub for a little extra kick and it gives the bark a nice color.
Go ahead and fire up your smoker and bring the temp to 275⁰. For this cook I have my Gateway Drum rolling right along with a little Pecan wood and lump. You can use any pit for this cook just hold the temp steady.
Place the Oxtail pieces on the cooking grate and smoke them for about 2 hours. You’ll want to flip them half way through to get color on both sides.
While the smoke is rolling go ahead and put together the braising liquid. I start with fresh carrots, celery, onion, and garlic sautéed for just a few minutes. Then add the liquids: Worcestershire, Balsamic Vinegar, Red Wine, and a heaping tablespoon of tomato paste. Reduce this mixture to concentrate the flavors and then add 3 cups of beef broth and a tablespoon of beef bouillon base. Let the liquid simmer for about 10 minutes and remove from heat.
Once the oxtail pieces develop a dark color on the smoker, remove them from the heat and place in a large cast iron pot (dutch oven). Pour the braising liquid in with them and cover with foil. Place the pot on the smoker and let it roll until the Oxtails are practically falling apart. I use a fork to check their progress and when the meat easily separates, it’s done.
Remove the dutch oven from the smoker and carefully transfer each piece of oxtail to a platter. Cover loosely with aluminum foil and pour the braising liquid through a strainer. Give it a few minutes to settle and spoon any fat off the top.
To serve this dish I go family style. Cook a cup or two of long grain rice according to the package directions and spread it out on a big platter. Arrange the pieces of Oxtail over the rice and ladle the strained braising liquid over the top for a sauce.
Garnish it with a little green onion slices or fresh parsley and you’re ready to serve. This is a hearty dish that will stick to your ribs and put a smile on your face; I hope you give it a try!

Just made this for my family and I almost had a civil war between the Wife and kids they all wanted more portions. Absolutely tasteful and delicious. You Sir, are my grilling mentor Malcolm.
You are a player!
Same. Whatever he recommends, EYE recommend twice that.
🤣🤣
Lord have mercy! That's one fine looking dish right there!
Smoky Ribs BBQ & Southern Cuisine yes
@@melhicks8279 yeah i agree with this.
Or nothing wrong it even making the others pay your share of the rent if you have to take on all the risk and responsibility.. going to the extreme but hey way i see it, if you are paying a reasonable market rate for the accomodation, it just seems like the guy who has the lease did all the leg work and has to manage all bills and risk or if any house mate decides they just want to bail, then who covers the rent shortfall? i wont see any of the other housemates jumping in to pay an extra $100 p/w until a new person if found?
if i had say 3 housmates, Id charge them $50 extra if I can to cover for the rent if something happens and a room is vacant. Lets say if 3 all leave in a short time, that means I am paying $800p/w.... just sayin.
I just tried this one out, I never usually comment on videos but this is legendary and Malcolm is a God of BBQ!
This guy needs a TV show. Great content without any overly complicated technique or hard to find ingredients. Just simple food prepared the right way by a guy who’s passionate about what he does. Thanks as always for the post
Must say , as a Jamaican, this oxtail looks amazing. Cant wait to try this.
As a West Indian, I am accustomed to braised oxtails. This is the first I've come across such an idea as smoked 'tails. They came out beautifully.
I would slaughter that dish. Great job sir

If I had to choose one dish to eat everyday for the rest of my life, it would be oxtail. I’ve made it a hundred times on the stovetop but this is one of the BEST preps of this dish I’ve ever seen. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Properly cooked oxtail tastes better than the best ribeye you’ve ever had, man. Can’t wait to try this on my Weber Kettle!! Thanks, brutha 😃🙌🏽
Same bro, my favourite ever dish is Jamaican Oxtail with butter beans and rice n coleslaw. I could eat it every damn day with a Guinness punch. 👊🏽
When I was growing up, nobody but country folks, especially Black folks cooked ox tails. We had them several times a month because they were inexpensive. Now....they're a special occasion meat because they're so damn expensive, especially here in the NY-NJ areas.
facts i live in east flatbush Brooklyn.. its called make oxtails cheap again 😂😂
Expensive? In the bronx it's 10 dollars. Maybe a fancy sit down restaurant is 20.
@@colorfulcodes 11 at C&Js in flatbush
@@colorfulcodes Well, if you cooked them from scratch where I live they cost 5.99-8.99 per pound. In San Diego they're about $14-$18 per plate & twice that much at a fancy sit down restaurant $28-$36.
@@jonsnipe5484 - $11 and 2 or 3 pieces of ox tail with the gravy. Right?
Inexpensive? Not where I live. It's expensive for just three pieces. We've cooked it for years! And yes, its soul food worthy!
Do you have any local Asian grocery stores? Stuff like this is usually MUCH cheaper for me at Asian markets than it is at my local grocery store or butcher.
No, not here we don't. Thanks for the info though.
ya maybe it's a regional thing but oxtails are an expensive cut of meat where I live
About $8 per pound here in SF, California. About the same price of a prime rib.
I bought some today from an Asian market north of Atlanta. They were $9 per pound. I spent over $40 on 2 packs.
I need to stop watching your videos on an empty stomach. It's torture.

My wife is Jamaican and ox tails is her favorite food so I'm going to have to show her this recipe. It might be hard to compete with her 'how mama used to make it' recipe tho
Ben Hall I know what you mean. Got to add Butter Beans!
Ben Hall Jamaican oxtails are the best.
No one compares to mama lol
Man love jamaican food especially oxtails
Don't show her just surprise her one day tell her you want to make her oxtail with a secret twist lol.
I am an oxtail connoisseur and you've done a fabulous job.
Keep up the good work.
Malcolm, I don't know you from Adam but when I get that notification that I have a new HowToBBQRight video all seems right with the world. I get to see a jolly guy make BBQ that looks so good you would slap your momma for a piece. Hats of to you brother...A toast to the strangers in our lives who give us thankless moments of joy in such a crazy world.
yeah i agree with this.

Malcom, I've always cooked oxtails in the crockpot. for one reason it's simple.But for the extra worked you put in and I entrust in you I have to try it your way. Cannot thank you enough for what you have done for my smoker. My family gives me all the credit because of you.For that I salute you sir. Keep the videos coming!
Made this last night for Easter dinner today and let's just say Malcolm you are the Goat.nobody can see me on the grill in my circle thanks to you.
You have officially added more soul to a soul food staple!!
Man I’m trying to stop eating meat and you come along with this magnificent looking mouth watering video.
Man! When you poured that sauce over them tails, i swear i heard angels sing.
The funniest!
It's a year later and I can still hear them...😂
Really funny...
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I made this and it was a big hit. The flavor is so rich and delicious. I made this and finished it in the oven. My neighbors and everyone went crazy for it. I didn't throw away the veggies they went great with the gravy. I'm from the Caribbean and this isn't how we do oxtails there but when I tell you THESE ARE THE BEST OXTAILS I'VE EVER TASTED MY WHOLE LIFE. I'll never make oxtails any other way again. Great job dude. 😎
This recipe was an absolute HIT for Mother’s Day!! My wife said I had to add it to my BGE rotation.
I really enjoy all of your videos. You help me look like I know what I’m doing. 😄
Keep up the great work, Malcolm!
hey like that style of cooking oxtail here in Trinidad we more less stew it but like your method of smokin it first sure it will be delicious will be giving it try keep up the great work from Trinidad
Jacklyn redman must be Caribbean thing. Spent my honeymoon in the Bahamas. Never had ox tail stew. It was amazing. Doing some good work down there.
This recepie will be tested!
Cheers from Norway!
Elton's BBQ-pit how was it?
Yeah, we've been eating oxtails all my life. My mom is the best. Your recipe looks great.
GOD bless you and your family
I have cooked Ox Tails many many times and they are delicious. I have never seen them smoked this way! Bravo on your ingenuity! I am going to have to try this. Fortunately I have a Drum smoker!! Great video!!
Great cook Malcom! My mother-in-law hails from Switzerland, and she makes a killer stew with Oxtail. Such great flavor!
Ballistic BBQ Greg!!! You two should feature each other on your channels!!
Man, that means a lot. Appreciate it. Love the channel!
I'm in
Johnny Depth ... from a fan perspective and a sub of both channels I'd love to see that
Me too. Of the many channels out there these guys are consistently doing great cooks.
Smoked Oxtail is a first for me,a must try.
Never thought I'd ever do oxtails. But once again, Malcolm does it again with a great recipe! Those look AWESOME!!! Thanks again Malcolm!!
Finally. A right recipe for ex tail.
A tip, if you put that sauce on the stove on a good simmer, half on and half off of the burner, it forces the fat to migrate to the non-working side so its easier to skim. Keep skimming until it's all out and you can make an awesome glaze which has an amazing texture and flavor. The mouth feel is smooth, any fat just runs it. You'll be spoiled once you've had it. You can find the detailed instructions on how to make a proper glaze in a braised short rib video.
Trust me, as much effort and love as you put into this, its worth it. :)
I would have never thought I was an "ox tail" guy, but I am doing this next week. Malcom thanks for another good video.
Funny fact ox tails used to be very cheap. They were considered a portion of the cow that people didn’t want once it was butchered. Well you see what happens when people start cooking things that others don’t want you get recipes like this and then everybody wants some ox tails. Now they are expensive.
So basically like Buffalo Wings lol
Same thing happend to crableggs.. I remember them being 2.99lb.. now 9.99 a lb is considered cheap..smh
$7.19 a pound. Not too bad.
Low and slow the best way to go!!! Awesome!!!
Simply amazing!!!.. one of the best oxtail recipe videos I've seen besides the Jamaican recipes which are hands down the best!!
My goodness..... that looks so good!
That oxtail looks so good, I swear I can almost taste them!!!
Yes 🙌🏻 looks sooo amazing!!! Instead of rice I’d pair this with some mashed potatoes and corn on the Cob yummy 😋
Not only is Malcolm a grill master, he is a fine cook. My favorite grilling channel. Thanks Malcolm from another Mississippi boy!
We love cooking Ox tail.. Great job Malcom.
I've only ever had Cuban version of oxtail, which is one of my favorites. This will definitely be going in my recipe arsenal! Haven't been disappointed with any of your recipes that I've tried. Thanks for the awesome videos and helpful tips and tricks.
Been watching for a long time and this hands down was one of my favorite episodes.
Yep…I’m doing this the next weekend I am off. My wife is preparing some oxtails right now in the crockpot, but I gotta try smoked first then braised. Yum! Thank you Malcolm, for this awesome Christmas gift…six years later!
Just made these yesterday. Mmm good! My wife never had oxtails before & she really liked these. Make these if you can. No dutch oven or cast iron pan needed. I just put them in a doubled foil baking tray. I kept the carrots, onion & celery in the dish. Just skimmed the fat. This recipe is a winner!
You gone make me stalk you! 🤦🏽♀️👌🏽
I've never heard of smoke ox tails . Wow you did the damn thing.
His voice makes me hungry AF and I just ate. Don't help that them oxtails look top tier either.
You made me a local hero lol. Thanks for sharing man.
Here in Germany we traditionall use ox for soup... Ochsenschwanzsuppe.. Never had it bbq style. After watching this i really have to try it soon. Good Job man!!
Not sure if you have a jamaican restaraunt where you are but traditionally oxtails are a jamaican food. You should go try it out!
Th 4.5.1904 - i had some of the best oxtail soup when i lived in Germany!
Oxtail in America isn't actually from an Ox
@@RoyaleWitCheese04 It's more than Jamaican. Blacks in the US cook it too. It is also cooked throughout the Caribbean. And in Africa.
@@RoyaleWitCheese04 it's not just Jamaican, everyone used to use every part of the cow, so every culture has a dish to go with it, I would love to try jamaican oxtails though!
You know when white people start eating Ox tail on white rice, You know they know how to eat good.
Can't wait to try this out. Looks incredible. Thank you for the inspiration!
Awesome job! What's even more awesome is his voice. He sounds like a sports caster who I would totally enjoy listening to him narrate any sports event. Thumbs up!
I think I'm in love with this man
Leah Rules ..... I'm considering going to try to find him... LMAO!!

Me too
@@crunch9362 you too? Hilarious. Like your humor.
Me too, and I'm not even gay!
Omg dude u got those ox tails looking good ..... imma try this
Malcolm, everything you make is just money!!!! I have made so many of your recipes and all of them have been on point!
Looks amazing....and the look on your face when you take a bite says alot about the flavor
Those oxtails looks so good and meaty.
All I can say is wow
Made this almost verbatim this week, with the exception of using Meat Church's rub instead of Malcom's. Also I kept the veggies in the sauce instead of straining them out. Paired it with some coconut rice along with the Serious Eats recipe for collard greens.
Absolutely phenomenal. While I really appreciate the more traditional Jamaican/West Indies way of cooking oxtail, this recipe blew everyone's minds that had the pleasure of tasting it. The amount of smoke was perfect. It's so rich that you need something to cut through the beef, and the vinegary collards complemented the dish perfectly.
I highly recommend trying this recipe at least once.
i don't know how i found this channel but i am HOOKED. Everything you make looks amazing.
Oxtail is the BEST PART of the cow, thanks for making this. It looked amazing coming off the grill. Try it with some greek pita toasted on the flames instead of rice.
Geez man my mouth is watering, I’m stuck at work hungry and you do this to me :(
Rafael Bueno hey, get back to work
Listen to me. This guy us a genius! Ox tail is my favorite cut of beef
I mean flavor wise not even the tomahawk cut can compare. I never thought of smoking them. Wow that must taste amazing!
Oh heck yea!!
Haven't had good oxtails in years. Have to find some this weekend. Another winner from the maestro.
Best looking oxtails I've ever seen
Ahmaak Sirach real talk
Who else almost had a heart attack when he flipped the oxtails and almost lost one!!! 😱😱😱
They have the value of gold so that would have had to be picked up
Pick it up, Brush it Off and Bust it down...
That's the chef's tasting piece 😋...
I've been subbed for a couple years now and he's the man. I'm 100% trying this one. Wow!
This is right! It can't get no righter!
The black culture has given everything to the world... from food to fashion to inventions like no other.
Lol what the fuck
Now they do lol... wtf
That was a slave food... poor man's food. Now America profits from it. Sorry for your lack of knowledge.
Look it up...I will paste a link. Scraps to riches... or look it up...
People eat them now in America like no other. I'm referring to the American history of food scraps that the meat industry banks off of. 100 Percent the truth.
Man I love your channel I'm not going to be PC correct I didn't know white folks ate oxtail! I have never smoked oxtails but I will now! My family loves oxtails with cabbage and plantains! You are awesome dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@deharleyva here in Portland, I just saw them for first time at grocery and remembered this video. Dinner tonight!
Hello Malcom, this video is a yr old. I just got a new smoker and wanted to try cooking oxtails differently from the way I normally cook them which is with a slow cooker with cabbage. I came to You Tube, searched for"smoked oxtails" looked at the pics of what populated and chose the video of the oxtails that looked the most scrumptious which was yours. I am planning on making these in 3 days and if they come out ANYTHING like yours did I'm sure my family and I will LOVE them. I will come back with comments when I have made these. Thanks for your video, Im now subscribed to your channel.
My mouth is watering I need to try this
Could you possibly do a Cajun spicy turkey cook for thanksgiving
I like that idea!
Can you do a beef cheeks video please
Sec that
Wow, can't wait to try this! Thanks for all your videos, absolutely my favourite channel, cheers from Australia 😀
I've been eating oxtails for my whole life. I 😍😍😍 them
Nobody:
Me: “Hey Siri take me to his house”
Lmao
Oxtail is more expensive than steak nowadays! When yall white folks got hip...then the prices tripled!!! Lol.
Oxtails was slave food lol they have no idea.
Hahaha, true!!! Just like chicken, especially wings. It used to be cheap too!
@@wink181 Thighs too
Already know.😂
Some good ol slave scraps, until the white boy stuck his nose in the pot,$11.00 a pound now.🤔
I've always wanted to try this.
Watching this in quarantine is a bad idea.
My wife’s Haitian and her mom made me these for the first time. Delicious. I’ll have to show her this recipe.
Hmm - the butcher already trimmed them, Fat adds flavor and energy - leave it on... by the way I was brought up on Oxtail at the time it was a cheap cut and I enjoyed it. It used to be a cut for the poor.
Watching you cooking is making it hard on me to become vegetarian bro.
Damn!
Thank you Chef!! Always inspiring , a beautiful presentation🔥🔥
Thanks Malcolm, I've always wanted to try oxtails and you've made it very easy and appetizing.
Most of us only have one smoker, so we would do this on whatever we have. I'm curious if you have some rationale for the smokers you use for each recipe. Is it merely dealers choice or is the smoker you use better for the type of cook you are doing?
You know, some smokers/grills are better for different recipes (one example is the drum makes bacon get a little crispier than it does on other smokers) ... but you really can do any recipe on any smoke if you know how to control your fire and temp. I really just try to rotate the grills I use so things don't get boring. And I learn something new about each smoker every time I cook on it, so I like that.
Makes sense. Thanks.
HowToBBQRight what's the name of your drum smoker that you just used for this ox tail? And where we can buy one? Tank you and more power to your channel. Subbed
Many makers of drum smokers are out there ready to buy, but they're expensive. The cheapest is to make your own. Google "Ugly Drum Smoker BBQ-Brethren" for instructions. Buying everything I needed new, including the drum itself, I spent less than $100USD to build mine and it cooks like something I spent 10x that amount on.

Let me bless y'all....after smoking them, throw em in the pressure cooker for about an hour instead of back on the grill for nearly 3hrs....it's a wrap!!!!
Man Dingo gross and not the same..pressure cookers suck
@@bmark7951 1st of all until you've had them smoked on a good wood like hickory and let em go in that pressure...just stay silent.
That looks great. Nuff respect family.....salute

It looked good hope it had a divine taste.
This looks SOOOOO GOOOOOD! I don't know how to cook, but after watching this video, I really want to try to follow this recipe and get me some of that oxtail.
OMG. I've never seen ox tails prepared like this. I'm impressed. I've never smoked anything. I sure would like to give this a try. Thanks.
Some of the best recipes are years ago. Exactly what I wanted and Mmmmmm Thank you so much!
Man this looks amazing I love oxtails. So good.
Made these this weekend on my new Camp Chef. They were awesome and the braising fluid aromas were absolutely incredible (did the braise phase in the oven). Everyone loved them but at $7/lb here I'm not sure how often I'd do it.
Yes indeed food for the SOUL!! I am definitely doing this for Mardi Gras this year.
Gotta say i LOVE your videos !! And i HATE them for making me hungry oh so hungry all the time ! Thank you for your work !!!
These look FIRE! 🔥. Never had Oxtail before but I bet it’s amazing on rice
You truly are "The MAN"!!! Thank YOU!!! More things to try soon,....!!
