BRAISED PIG'S TAIL RECIPE

Steps:

• Rinse the pork tails, remove the hair, and cut them into smaller chunks.
• Add cold water and pig's tail to a large saucepan or pot. (Make sure the pig tails are submerged.)
• Bring to boil and drain the water. It'll take about 10 minutes. Rinse the pork tails to remove the foam and small particles.
• In a large pan over medium-heat, add oil, garlic, ginger and green onion. Stir fry for about 1 minute until fragrant.
• Add cooked pig tail chunks, star anises, sugar, soy sauce, cooking wine to the pan.
• Add water to make sure the liquid covers the pork tail completely.
• Bring to boil, and then lower the heat.
• Cover the lid and simmer for about 1 hour until the pork tail has become completely tender.
• Remove the lid. Turn the heat to high, cook until the sauce has thickened. If you have a lot of liquid in the pan, it may take a while. You can add cornstarch slurry (mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and water). This will thicken the sauce much faster and make it sticky.
• Season with more salt if needed and serve immediately.

JAMAICAN RUM-GLAZED BBQ PIG'S TAIL RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Blend together ingredients for green seasoning.
• Add pig's tail to pot of boiling water for 20 minutes to rinse.
• Add blended green seasoning to a second pot of boiling water and then re-add pig's tail to water. (You will be boiling the pigs tail twice in total)
• Remove pig's tail from the water after 15 minutes ensuring not to rinse them off the second time.
• Heat BBQ grill to 350°F (180°C) or set oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Combine the BBQ sauce, ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, rum, garlic, ginger, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard in a medium bowl.
• If using a BBQ grill, cook pig's tail on each side for 3 minutes and then add the sauce and again leave each side for 4 minutes until the fat has somewhat melted and is dark and sizzling.
• If using oven, cover pig's tail with foil and bake for 6 minutes without sauce. Brush BBQ sauce onto pig's tail, making sure both sides are covered completely in sauce. Leave for another 5 minutes, still covered with foil, and then for another three minutes without the foil to achieve a dark crispness on the outside.
• Best served hot!

BRAISED PIG TAILS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a large saute pan until hot, then add 3 tablespoons of the olive oil. When the olive oil begins to smoke, carefully place the pig tails into the saute pan. Sear the pig tails until golden, then remove from the pan. Repeat as many times as necessary to sear all the pig tails. Once the pig tails are removed from the pan, carefully add the beer and deglaze the pan.
• Heat a large oven-safe roasting pan until hot, then add the remaining 3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil and cook the ginger, garlic, carrots, onions and celery until caramelized. Add the pig tails, then pour the chicken stock into the roasting pan (there should be just enough liquid to cover the pig tails and vegetables). Add the thyme sprigs, bay leaves, orange juice and two healthy pinches of salt. Cover the pig tails with aluminum foil and braise in the oven for 4 hours. Remove the foil and continue to bake for another 30 minutes. (This will allow the pig tails to gain a beautiful color and for the braising liquid to reduce.) Remove the pig tails from the roasting pan and strain the braising liquid. Refrigerate until ready to use. Once the pig tails are cool to the touch, trim the excess fat.
• Add the vegetable oil to a large pot and heat to 350 degrees F.
• Dredge each pig tail in flour and fry until crispy. Toss in your favorite barbecue sauce. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, sliced scallions and cilantro if using.
