Braised Oxtail Joints Bourgeoise

"From my collection of handwritten recipes 1964. Back in the day, I was able to purchase oxtails for ten cents a pound at a local packing house. I would get as many tails as I could afford and cut them up and freeze them. I collected any recipe I could get my hands on to cook them. Today the price is so high I can rarely afford them but I still treat myself every once in a while."
