Rich and meaty with hearty vegetables slow simmered through the day, and old family recipe we make every winter. We will put in on a low flame before we head out to ski and in the evening come back to the rich wonderful aromas and a succulent hot soup that will fill you up with out over filling you.

I love ox-tail! Very expensive now but get it anyway. Very nice recipe. Ox-tail freaks people out? Last night I made sweet breads! Tripe is out of this world! But the secret is knowing how to cook it...right? Yep, come over anytime and bring the beer...more
