4. Simmer Low & Slow
- Cover and simmer on low heat for 2½ to 3 hours, or until the oxtail is tender and meat is falling off the bone. Stir occasionally and add liquid if needed to prevent sticking.
5. Add Butter Beans
- Once the oxtail is tender, stir in the drained butter beans.
- Simmer uncovered for another 15–20 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and beans are heated through.
6. Serve & Devour
- Serve hot over rice and peas, steamed white rice, or mashed potatoes.
- Garnish with extra scallions or thyme if desired.
Tips
- Scotch Bonnet: Leave it whole for aroma, or slice it for serious heat. Respect the pepper! 🌶️
- Browning Sauce: Adds deep color and flavor but can be skipped if unavailable.
- Leftovers: Even better the next day! Reheat low and slow for best results.
