The Big Cousin’s Oxtails & Cornbread Waffle Platter

The Ultimate Premium Comfort Experience

Get ready for the heavyweight champion of the menu. We start with a full one pound of premium, slow-cooked oxtails, piled high on top of a crisp, golden-brown, round cornbread waffle. The deep pockets of our scratch-made cornmeal waffle act as a reservoir for every drop of rich, velvety gravy.

Choose your flavor lane:

Braised (The Caribbean Cousin’s Favorite): Infused with traditional pimento berries, ginger, thyme, and scotch bonnet peppers, simmered down into a deeply aromatic, dark gravy.

Smothered (The Soul Food Cousin’s Favorite): Cooked low-and-slow with the holy trinity of onions, bell peppers, and celery, creating a classic, silky Southern brown gravy that melts in your mouth.

The Standard Sides (The Supreme Lineup)

Every Big Cousin Platter is flanked by a legendary trio of soul food excellence:

Southern Baked Mac & Cheese: Individually prepared and baked to perfection with a thick, bubbly, multi-cheese crust.

Authentic Collard Greens: Slow-simmered and heavily seasoned, packed with deep, smoky savory flavor.

Candied Yams: Sweet, tender, and bathed in a warm brown sugar and cinnamon glaze.

The Sweet Finishes

Daily Dessert Special: Your choice of one of our rotating, scratch-made daily sweet treats.

32 oz Cousins Kool-Aid: A massive, ice-cold cup of Cousin’s signature blend choose your favorite flavor and your sweetness to wash it all down.

Remix Your Platter (Substitutions Available)

Want to pivot to your favorite classic combination? Swap any side or your waffle base to build your perfect plate. We’ve got the staples to make it make sense:

The Rice & Gravy Classics: Substitute your waffle for a generous bed of fluffy White Rice or seasoned Yellow Rice to soak up that premium gravy the traditional way. Or, go island-style with authentic Rice and Peas.

The Comfort Carbs: Switch things up with creamy, buttered Fresh Mashed Potatoes, a basket of warm Biscuits, or smooth, southern-style Grits (perfect for turning it into an upscale brunch profile).

The Green & Savory Swaps: Trade your greens for tender Green Beans snapped and seasoned just right, or rich, buttery Cabbage.

Mix, match, and customize to create the soul food plate of your dreams!
