Think of oxtails as a slow dance at a wedding. You don’t rush through it; you sway, you let the music build, and then at the end, you’re totally satisfied. Compare that to a quick cheeseburger—that’s a fast, happy pop song. Both are great, but only one leaves you with that deep, lingering warmth.
Or, if you prefer food comparisons: oxtails are to stew meat what a luxury spa treatment is to a quick shower. One is efficient, the other is an experience. You want the experience, right?
