Never paying that much for no oxtail. Especially since I'm a "g" at making Oxtail. I specialize in the Jamaican style though. I don't even want it if it ain't Jamaican style either. But I'm gonna smoke up some Oxtail in the coming months to try and achieve "Dat Candy Red". But truth be told Oxtail sucks to me, when it's not Jamaican style. It's still the same ol throw away cheap shyt no matter how you seasoned it. If it ain't seasoned Jamaican style. I've personally never had an Oxtail off the smoker, but I'm gonna try it like Les at 1st. But I'm gonna most definitely try it seasoned Jamaican style on the smoker.

I don't like it that much and I'd rather invest that money in Pizza.

There’s this thing called inflation. The price of everything went up idk why yall keep pushing this narrative about oxtail gentrification lmao.
From another Htown breh? :beli:

Breh, it was always considered undesirable, cheap, waste meat until some white folks thought it was hip and ethnic.... Inflation will only go so far

Oxtail’s centurieslong roots in Black communities is a history worth protecting

Oxtail was once considered undesirable. Now prices are soaring.

My Jamaican peoples down the street most likely make oxtails just as good if not better and they only charging $22 for a large plate with rice n peas, cabbage, extra gravy

Same as the hood jamaican spot i frequent. Portions are huge too.

Nah for 180 two of those glass bowls needed to be filled. 180 for 4 is some of the most disrespectful shyt that I have ever seen.
