Best Gingersnap Pot Roast Recipes

GINGERSNAP POT ROAST

Steps:

• 1. Roll meat in flour.
• 2. Brown on all sides in a pot (not Teflon coated pot).
• 3. When halfway done add onions and continue to brown. ***Please use care while doing this step as I have watched my mom turning the meat over and it fell off the fork and splashed the oil on her face***
• 4. Once all browned, cover with "BOILING" water, (if you add cold water it will make the meat tough).
• 5. Add 3/4 cup white vinegar, 2 Tbsp brown sugar, and 1 cup ketchup.
• 6. Let meat simmer for 2-3 hours.
• 7. Remove meat, strain onions out of water and throw out. ***I skim the onions out so as we don't have to dirty another pot to collect the juice use your own judgement***
• 8. Put liquid back into pot.
• 9. Add half the box of the gingersnap cookies. More can be added until you get the proper consistency. Remember, more water means more gingersnaps to make it thicker. I usually throw in at least one package depending on how much water there is. They can be crushed or whole as they will dissolve after a few minutes. If it's too thick, add 1/4 cup of water at a time until you have your desired consistency of gravy.
• 10. Once gravy thickens up, put the meat back in the sauce and let it sit for another 30 minutes.
• 11. Side dish with this we have mashed potatoes and green beans. I love the gravy.
