Oxtail, Raw

EverydayRaw

Oxtail is the culinary term for cattle tail, consisting of segments of bone surrounded by meat, fat, and connective tissue. This cut is particularly rich in collagen and marrow, making it highly valued for slow-cooking methods that transform its tough raw state into tender, flavorful meat. Raw oxtail provides significant protein and iron content, while its high gelatin-forming collagen content makes it especially prized for broths and stews.
