Delicious Braised Fall-Off Bone Ox Tails!!

I think one of the best investments I've made so far in the kitchen was buying a Pressure Cooker! I got the stove-top one not the electric one after doing heavy researching on the pros and cons of each.

I haven't had ox tails in the longest time and I felt it was time to have it for dinner. The real magic is letting the pressure cooker do the heavy lifting. Anyone can make delicious fall-off ox tails with a pressure cooker!

I made a tomato-based red wine infused flavored ox tails.

Ingredients:

2-3 lbs of Ox Tails
1.5 cup of Red Wine
Water
1 can of Canned Tomatoes/Stewed Tomatoes
Tomato Paste
Worcestershire sauce
~10 Garlic Cloves
Salt
Pepper

Steps:

1) Bring ox tails to room temperature
2) Trim any unnecessary fat as there's a lot of fat (it'll be more obvious at the end)
3) Pat them super dry with paper towel
4) Season them with salt and pepper
5) Splash some Worcestershire sauce over it
6) Heat your pressure cooker to Medium-Medium High
7) Splash some oil (something that can handle high heat)
8) Throw in the garlic cloves to flavor the pressure cooker
9) Sear the ox tails all around so the juices will trap inside
10) Now add the remaining ingredients: Red Wine, Splash of Water, Tomato Paste, and Canned Tomatoes
11) Close the lid, set heat to HIGH, and pressurize!
[depending on the brand of pressure cooker you have, you want to bring your cooker to the highest pressure possible]
12) Once pressurized, set timer to 45 minutes or so and lower heat back to Medium/Medium-Low heat
13) Once time has elapsed, depressurize the cooker naturally or pour cold water over the lid!
14) Voila! The results!

Let me know how it goes for you! Good luck!
