Easy baked smothered oxtails that are seasoned with Rosamae Seasonings Oxtail Seasonings, and baked in the oven until fork tender.
Hey cousins! If you haven’t heard, I launched my very own seasoning and cookware company, Rosamae Seasonings, at the beginning of the year. We have several seasonings such as my Seasoning Salt, Greens Seasonings, Yams Spice, and one of my newer seasonings Oxtail Seasoning!
My Oxtail Seasoning consists of a sea salt, spices, dry herbs, and more. My goal was to make cooking soulful oxtails easy, and from all of the feedback I’ve been getting it’s safe to say that I’ve achieved just that.
In this post I’m going to show you how I make my slow baked smothered oxtails. These oxtails will be baked in the oven so there’s no need for anything other than a good baking pan. Oh, and you’ll also need a frying pan because we will slightly fry the oxtails to brown them.

I love this recipe..So easy to do
Rosie! I got my little coins together cause oxtail is not cheap and boy did these babies pack in the flavor! My family loved it
I made this tonight, and my family LOVED IT! I’ve had ox tails before but never like this!
Oxtails are way out of my budget at $12 a lb. There is a Caribbean recipe called Poor Man’s Oxtails that replaces oxtails with fresh turkey necks. I’m going to try it with your wonderful recipe that is great for a cold day.
Hi Terri! I have a few turkey neck recipes in the works, but just FYI you can use beef neck bones for this recipes as well. XOXO
You can use beef ribs with this recipe. NOT the short ribs. They’re pricy, too. They’re yummy, too.
Thank you for sharing this incredible recipe. Prepared my oxtail dinner for family – everyone enjoyed!
Much appreciated!
Hi, Rosie—this recipe looks so good! I wanted to ask, what else can I use the Oxtail Seasoning with? Thank you!
Hi there! You can use the Oxtail Seasoning on Roast, Short Ribs, Beef Neck Bones, and other beef cuts 😉
Rosie, your recipes are phenomenal. Do you think Food Network will reach out to you and ask you to do your own show? That would be wonderful don’t you think
Thanks so much Deirdre! I’m not sure what they will do, but I’m loving this journey that I’m on . XOXO
I was wondering if you could use round steak or cubed steaks instead of the ox tails? They sure do look good! Thank you for your recipes and the newsletter:) Have a Happy Easter.
I don’t suggest using steak as a replacement. Maybe beef neck bones, or short ribs.
Do I have to cut the fat meat off from oxtail which I like.
Hello there! No, if you like it you can leave it on.
What is the rose a May spices to use for this recipe I’ve never made oxtail before I purchase some and I’m looking at different recipes thank you very much

Where does one find oxtail seasoning?
Hello there! You can find it here https://rosamaeseasonings.com/products/oxtail-seasoning
I followed your recipe, it was very easy to follow. My oxtails came out fork tender and flavored so well. I didn’t have the seasoning you recommended so I used my own. This is my new, easy, recipe for smothered oxtail
