Will’s Favorite Beef Neck Bones

December 30, 2015 by Felesha 30 Comments

Skip to Recipe

These tender and succulent “fall off the bone” Beef Neck Bones will take you right back to your southern roots!!

Beef Neck Bones

Beef Neck Bones!!! What the heck is a Beef Neck Bone you may ask and do you actually eat them?!?!? Oh my, yes! Well to be totally honest, I never made this meal before I got married to my “country as buttermilk” hubby. After we got married, I asked him to tell me his favorite meal because I wanted to make it for him. I had an inkling that it would be country…lol! To take it the meal over the top, he requested mixed turnip and mustard greens, pinto beans and hot water cornbread! Wow! If that isn’t country, I don’t know what is!!! And if you haven’t figured it out yet, beef neck bones are from the neck of the cow. 🙂

Beef Neck Bones

Did I mention that I had never made any of these dishes before?!?!? Yikes! Here I was newly married and didn’t have a clue where to start on any of these. I called momma and of course, she sent me in the right direction and over the years, I have perfected his favorite meal as he requests it often. It is always on the menu for New Year’s Day! You eat black eyed peas for New Year’s, we eat pinto beans! 🙂

Beef Neck Bones

The key to making these Beef Neck Bones as tender as a filet is cooking them low and slow. This particularly tough cut of meat becomes fall off the bone tender just by braising them. They are just loaded with flavor and hard to resist. The complete meal makes hubby rub his heels together! Lol! This makes it a favorite!! Have a Happy New Year guys and I’ll see you in 2016 – The Great Year! Yes! The Great Year of whatever you need it to be that is! Hallelujah! Say Grace and enjoy!!

Beef Neck Bones

 Be sure to pair with my Hot Water Cornbread or even Will’s Southern Style Grits without the yummy toppings!!

        Hi Felesha…. there’s a gravy or beef sauce you’re pouring over the beef in the picture above…. what is that? The meat juices, or?

            Hi Becky! It’s funny that you ask as I’m working on a recipe for my next eCookbook, Healthy Southern Cookin’!! Coming soon!! Just so you know, I cook them with smoked turkey for great flavor. 🙂

          Hi Becky! It’s simply the au jus from the meat. Hope you enjoy!! 🙂

    This recipe looks awesome! I know Beef Neck Bones are less expensive, but this recipe would also be a phenomenal way to prepare Oxtails, and I can’t wait to try it.

    Was really good. I strained then simmered the sauce with a little cornstarch to thicken it out a little. I stripped the meat off the bone then threw it in the sauce and added scallions and cilantro. Ate it with white rice on the side… oh was it good. My wife and kids are not a fan of neck bones, so I gladly chowed it all down??

    How would you cook boneless beef neckbones over the stove? Thank you in advance.

      Hi Carmel! I have never tried these on top of the stove. I would imagine that you would cook them low and slow however. I would definitely keep the bone intact when making them. Hope this helps!!

    Hi, this recipe looks so good, I just bought some, what i was hoping to find is something comparable to beef short ribs, which are terribly expensive. Would like work? I have been browning my short ribs and then cooking them in the electric pressure cooker, i also make a gravy, great meal, could is do this with the neck bones? Thanks, Linda
