If I had some carrots I would have added them.

The broth alone is excellent.

I was raised on ox tails, neck bones, shank...hocks...all sorts of beans and every green (poor White Southern that is, mustard, chard, collard; turnip). The food that is now virtually unaffordable (pack of ox tails are 24.00 usd) was nearly given away back in the 60-70's.

Sheeeit, we even made soup- damned good soup out of knuckle bones. Like most poor kids I didn't know I was poor, seemed to me we ate great stuff. I just knew all the other kids were mean to me.

My mom used to but neck bones in her pasta sauce. It was really good. Now they are expensive AF for what they are. It used to be scrap that no one wanted. I never had an ox tail, but those are crazy prices as well.

Yeah good times. Ox tails are ridiculous. You cook them a long time and you get this insane rich sweet meat and all this gluey rich collagenous stuff- sounds gross and maybe it is, but, oxtail is really delicious.

The poor had to make their meager meals taste good. It's trickle up snacking.

Someone here told me all gourmet food starts as peasant food.

Prisoners rioted over being fed lobster too much saying it was cruel and unusual punishment. So, uhh yeah.

Also most "cheap cuts" have been made popular by cooking shows and stupid videos on tiktok so everything costs 10x what it should now.

brown darkly a lb of ground beef with 1/2 a sweet onion diced. Do not drain add a large can of beans Mollases not tomato for base like B&M baked beans and low heat for around 10 minutes to let the beans and beef mix flavor. I also myself use Laurie seasoning salt to give flavor to the hamburner while browning but I like salt anyways so a little garlic powder salt pepper even light termeric can be added to the browning burger for more flavor to the meal.

THis is one meal if you work out hard, or 2 meals or more otherwise you will gain weight fast.
