The How-to Geek has an article on how to do this for Ubuntu. Presumably you can substitute the Xubuntu disc image and it would work just as well.

You can just install it as it where any harddisk. Boot the installation media, when asked for harddisk choose the usb drive. Make sure your BIOS will/can boot usb devices. Might need 'rootdelay=10' or so on the kernel line (in grub) to delay boot a bit so usb stuff is initialized in kernel before accessing root system.

A somewhat easy way to do it is to unplug/turnoff main HDD(s) in your system then plug-in the USB Drive and perform an ordinary installation on the USB Drive.

You should check out pendrivelinux.com. They have tons of tutorials for installing linux distros to usb drives, including this one on Xubuntu. :)
Also, if you are unframiliar with a 'persistent' install you may want to give this a read.
