Steps:

• Combine beef stew meat, onion, beef broth, vinegar, and bay leaves in a slow cooker.
• Cook on Low for 7 to 9 hours.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook egg noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain.

GINGERSNAP GRAVY

• Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
• Melt the fat and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• When almost melted, add the onions, celery, and garlic; saute 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the seasoning mix and cook 5 minutes more, stirring occasionally.
• Add the stock and pan drippings; bring to a boil over high heat and boil rapidly until liquid reduces to about 1 quart, about 25 minutes.
• Then crumble the gingersnaps into the stock mixture and whisk with a metal whisk until they are dissolved.
• Continue cooking 10 minutes, whisking frequently and making sure the gingersnaps are thoroughly dissolved.
• During this time, taste the gravy; if the ginger flavour is not pronounced,m add the 1 tablespoon brown sugar and the 1 teaspoon ginger or add both to taste.
• Strain the gravy.

SLOW-COOKER SAUERBRATEN

Steps:

• Sprinkle the brisket with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cut crosswise into 3 pieces. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the brisket in batches and brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a 5-to-6-quart slow cooker.
• Add the tomato paste to the skillet and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Whisk in the wine, vinegar and pickling spice sachet and simmer 4 minutes. Add to the slow cooker along with the beef broth, carrots, celery, leeks and half of the gingersnaps. Cover and cook on low, 8 hours.
• Remove the meat, vegetables and spice sachet. Whisk the remaining gingersnaps into the cooking liquid and add salt, pepper and parsley to taste. Set aside 1 piece of brisket, 1 cup vegetables and 2 cups gravy to make Corn, Squash and Beef Casserole. Slice the remaining meat and serve with the vegetables and gravy.
