Oxtails

Oxtail is a piece of a cow’s tail. It comes still on the bone, and is never sold boneless; in fact, there are many bones in it.

Though oxtails originally did indeed come from oxen, now they come from cows raised as beef or veal.

Oxtail is the main ingredient of the Italian dish Coda Alla Vaccinara.

An oxtail typically weighs 2 to 4 lbs. (1–1.8 kg) and is skinned and cut into short lengths for sale.

The PEI Certified Organic Producers Co-op (COPC) was established in 2002. The Co-op is composed of organic producers and like minded consumers who wish to see organic agriculture grow within Prince Edward Island.
