    I'm not too bad a cook and love to make soups. As a kid we had ox tail soup quite often. Cheap to make back then! I made a batch about a year ago and it was terrible. Greasy and not the flavor I remembered[:(!]

    You just have to make sure any Ox tail is cooked long enough. It is a pain getting the meat off the bones, unless it just falls off.

    This guy [:p][:p][:p].

    asop - Yeah "cheap" back then is right. Cost more than some cuts of beef that ain't 60% bone. Also the stuff I seen lately at Western super markets were small. Either young cattle or the tail section away from the base. I remembered the base of the tail to be thick like a cankle.

    The reason why it was greasy is because the "cook" didn't boil 30-40 minuets and dump the first batch of salted water out and trimmed the easy to get at fat. Then put it back in cold water and begin the boil again and skim the fat. Cook until tender or until you can suck on tail like chicken necks [:D].

    I was raised on it in the 1930s and 40s. In my opinion Ox Tail Soup is about the tastiest soup that you can make...very rich, great winter time table fare. I have made it a few times but it is hard to find good Ox Tail.

    the best way to get rid of the excess fat is to cook it a day ahead and refrigerate it then remove the solidified fat on top...

    Also it tastes better after it has set a day or so...gives all the ingredients time to shake hands.
