For an even richer flavor, consider browning the oxtail and beef stew meat in a separate pan before adding them to the stockpot. Feel free to customize the vegetables to your liking. Other great additions include turnips, parsnips, or bell peppers. If you don't have beef bouillon cubes, you can substitute with beef broth or stock. This soup tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have had time to meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
