I'm not a fan of oxtail, but my husband loves it. He said this stew was one of the best he's ever had.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the stew took a lot longer to cook than the recipe said. I had to let it simmer for an extra hour before the meat was tender.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my stew turned out really bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
