Thank you I always cook pig tails. Only after the boiling point let cool and remove all bones. I add a package of baby lima's a large chopped onion one tsp. garlic and black pepper. Cornbread goes great. I usually freeze a couple containers and serve as a side for another day.
Great idea I'm from the Caribbean and we stop at the boiling part this is an awesome recipe there should be more recipes like this.
Great Recipe I served it with turnip Greens and Cornbread. I submitted a pic so look for it to be up sooon
Very good!! High in fat so dont make it a regular habit but they are awesome. I sprinkled a little cajun seasoning on them before i put them in the oven and i couldnt stop eating them although i knew i should!
I wasn't sure what to do with the garlic so I boiled it along with the pig tails. The pig tails came out exactly the way they did in picture however the meat had no taste. I am not sure how to improve the taste.
I've never had pig tails before.I see them in the store and a friend makes Stone Stew and includes them along with some other "stuff". I think I'll have these along with my blackeyes and collards for New Year's Day. Keryne you're a true Nubian Soul with your recipes. Keep them coming!
I even added EXTRA seasoning but it was still flavorless;despite that it was strangely ok
This is a great recipe and though I haven't made this recipe exactly I've been eating pigtails all my life. I usually take them to the next level of deliciousness while roasting them by glazing them with a sweet and spicy barbecue sauce until they are fork tender; alternating between having them covered and uncovered with each addition of the sauce every thirty minutes until done. Serve with some collard greens mac & cheese and cornbread and you'll slap yo' self for not making this sooner. This also works with fresh ham hocks but the pigtails are awesome.
I've tried this recipe because it seemed the closest to what my grandfather used but instead of the basic seasonings I added some thyme distilled vinegar and garlic powder. Plus more salt and crushed peppers than indicated in the original recipe. Also I used a crock pot instead. Turned out perfect!!!
