Barbados Pepperpot Recipe

Name: Barbados Pepperpot
Total time: 60 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 Pigs Trotters; 2 Lbs Oxtail; Splash Lime juice; 3 cloves Garlic; 2 Scotch Bonnet; 1 large Onion; 1 Cinnamon Stick; 2 Cloves; Pinch Sugar; Pinch Salt; Sprinkling Basil; Sprinkling Thyme; 2 Lbs Beef

Barbados Pepperpot is a slow-simmered stew featuring a mix of beef, oxtail, and pig's trotters. The meat gets a quick marination in lime juice before it simmers with garlic, onion, scotch bonnets, cinnamon, cloves, basil, and thyme. This is a dish that only gets better with time; it often tastes even more developed a day or two after it's made, as the ingredients fully meld. When reheating, always bring the entire pot back to a boil.
