I am sure this is a wonderful stew and I do like oxtails. Unfortunately, they are very costly in most areas. A cheaper solution would be to use beef short ribs instead. The cooking methods and flavors are the same.
Although I’m sure it could be special ordered, what can be used as a substitute for the Ox Tails?
I suppose any kind of beef-like meat could be substituted. However, one of the benefits of using oxtail is the nutrition that comes from slow-cooking the bones. So, whatever meat you choose, be sure to include the bones with the meat when you cook it. You may even want to crack or cut open the bones to release the marrow.
