SLOW 'N' EASY SAUERBRATEN image

I've had this recipe in my files for awhile and it sounds "sooo good," to quote Mr. Food. Typical sauerbraten recipes usually require a lot of work and time, but this one is relatively simple. Recipe: MrFood.com Photo: slowcookerrecipes.org.uk

Time 16h

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (3 to 4 lb.) rump roast
1 c water
1 c white vinegar
1 medium onion, sliced
1 lemon, sliced
10 whole cloves
6 peppercorns
3 bay leaves
2 Tbsp salt
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp olive oil
15 gingersnaps, finely crushed

Steps:

  • 1. Place the roast in a large resealable plastic freezer bag. Combine water and next 8 ingredients; pour over meat. Seal and marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours, turning meat occasionally.
