Recipe shared with permission of the publisher. From Verlinden: Literally translated Rabo Encendido is “Tail on Fire.” Rabo Encendido is one of the few picante Cuban dishes. While Cuban cuisine is highly seasoned, it is seldom “hot.” In Cuban homes, the appetites of Cubans who like things spicy hot are typically satisfied by placing a bottle of hot sauce on the table. If you can get past the idea of the part of the cow this cut comes from, oxtail is a delicious treat. The meat is so tender it melts in your mouth. Give it a try. I know you’ll like it.
