Akaushi Wagyu Oxtail

Some of the most flavorful meals begin with the cuts that take their time.

Our Akaushi Wagyu Oxtail is a traditional bone-in cut known for its rich beef flavor and remarkable transformation during slow cooking. With meat surrounding the tail bones and plenty of connective tissue, oxtail develops a tender, succulent texture while adding body and depth to the cooking liquid.

Whether you're preparing a classic braised oxtail dinner, a hearty beef soup, or a traditional family recipe, this cut rewards patience with deeply satisfying results. It's an excellent choice for home cooks who appreciate authentic, slow-cooked meals and making the most of the whole animal.

Why You'll Love It

• Perfect for traditional recipes: Excellent for braised oxtail, Caribbean-style oxtail stew, hearty beef soups, and other slow-simmered favorites.
• Rich, flavorful sauces: The bones and connective tissue help create a satisfying cooking liquid that's wonderful for gravies and braising sauces.
• Nose-to-tail cooking: Enjoy a traditional cut that makes delicious use of more of the animal.

How to Cook Wagyu Oxtail

Low, slow, and moist cooking is the secret to great oxtail. Season the pieces with salt and pepper, then brown them in a heavy Dutch oven to develop flavor.

Add onions, garlic, carrots, herbs, and beef stock or another flavorful braising liquid. Cover and simmer gently on the stovetop or in a low oven until the meat is tender and easily separates from the bone.

Oxtail typically requires several hours of cooking. Rather than rushing the process, allow the connective tissue time to soften and enrich the sauce. Skim excess fat from the cooking liquid as desired.

What to Make With Oxtail

• Classic braised oxtail: Slowly cook with aromatic vegetables and herbs, then serve over creamy mashed potatoes.
• Caribbean-inspired oxtail stew: Braise with warm spices, thyme, and beans for a deeply satisfying meal.
• Hearty oxtail soup: Simmer with vegetables and broth for a comforting, beef-rich soup.
• Oxtail ragu: Shred the cooked meat into a rich tomato-based sauce and serve over pasta or polenta.
• Slow-cooked beef and gravy: Serve tender oxtail with rice, potatoes, or crusty bread to enjoy every bit of the sauce.
