Method

Several hours ahead, make the Oxtails in Ale Sauce: preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/gas 5. Trim the oxtails by removing the majority of outer fat and sinew from them, leaving a little to protect the meat. If the butcher has not already done so, cut into portions between the tail joints.
Sprinkle them with the oil and salt and roast them in the oven until brown
