| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Place beans in a small saucepan. Add 1 cup of the water, bring to a boil, covered, and turn off the heat. Allow sitting for 1 hour, covered, and then drain.
|
2. Brown the oxtails well in the lard or oil. Place the oxtails in a 6-quart stove-top casserole.
|
3. Add the garlic, onion, and tomato. Add the Beef Stock and enough water so that it just covers the contents of the pot. Add the allspice, salt, and pepper.
|
4. Cover and simmer for 3½ hours, adding the drained beans after 1½ hours. Stir occasionally.
|
5. Remove the lid during the last hour of cooking if you wish a thicker sauce. Be careful that the pot does not dry out.
|
6. Season with salt, pepper, and Tabasco.
