Ingredients
-
3 pounds beef oxtail
-
1 small onion, chopped
-
2 bunches fresh thyme, chopped
-
3 tablespoons browning sauce (such as Grace®)
-
2 scallions, chopped
-
3 tablespoons red pepper flakes
-
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger root
-
1 tablespoon ground allspice
-
3 cloves garlic, chopped
-
2 bay leaves
-
3 cups beef broth, divided
-
1 cup water
-
1 tablespoon tomato paste
-
1 (15 ounce) can butter beans, drained and rinsed (Optional)
-
salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
-
Combine oxtail, onion, thyme, browning sauce, scallions, red pepper flakes, ginger, allspice, garlic, and bay leaves in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
-
Heat a pressure cooker over medium-high heat. Add the beef. Cook, turning halfway, until juices are released and outsides are browned, about 10 minutes. Add 1 cup broth and water. Cover pot, lock the lid, and place pressure regulator over vent according to manufacturer's instructions. Reduce heat to low and simmer until mostly tender, about 2 1/2 hours.
-
Stir remaining beef broth and tomato paste into the beef. Cover with the lid and seal. Increase heat to high. Heat until steam escapes in a steady flow and makes a whistling sound, 7 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat to low and cook until oxtail is tender, 40 minutes to 1 hour.
-
Let pressure release naturally according to manufacturer's instructions, 5 to 10 minutes. Unlock lid and add beans, salt, and pepper. Increase heat to medium-high high; cook until flavors meld, about 5 minutes more.
Cook's Note:
You can substitute 2 Scotch bonnet peppers for the red bell peppers, if desired.
