cook it like pot roast, using the marinade for cooking liquid. No real flavor there except the vinegar.

Title: Dirty Dave's Sauerbraten Marinade
Categories: Marinades, Rubs, Herbs
Yield: 1 Recipe
TO MAKE GRAVY: Strain cooking juices, discarding onions
and seasonings. Add enough reserved marinade to the
cooking juices to measure 3 cups. Pour into a large
saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until
gravy is thickened. Slice roast and serve with gravy.
Uncle Dirty Dave's Kitchen
I use the spices I named above, cook it in the marinade in a dutch
oven. Used to do it in the crock pot but found we like it better done
in the dutch oven. When done, take it out, defat the cooking liquid,
put it back in the pot. Add crushed gingersnaps--about 10/12 cookies
per cup of liquid, a bit (tablespoon or so) of sugar and simmer until thick. The meat will be falling apart tender, the gravy will make a
great topper to noodles, potatoes or whatever starch you serve with the sauerbraten. I usually do noodles but did bow tie pasta this time. Red cabbage makes a good side to the meal also.

Didn't realize Single Ruth had left. As for Jim, the last email I got from him concerning the echo was that the echo had suddenly become
beneath him because his sh*t suddenly didn't stink anymore. After
that, I lost respect for him and think the echo is better off from that kind of attitude.

Mel-O-Cream's main income is from supplying other doughnut shops,

finished in the local location. Even Hy-Vee uses (chain wide) the

I hope you figure out what's going on. I am getting over bronchitis
which came about after inhaling a good lungful of mold accidentally a
few weeks ago. I'm still on antibiotics for another week or so. My coughing was so severe I was blacking out from the fits I was getting into. After a few days on the antibiotics, that calmed down but I am still having short fits of coughing (having that PE in my lungs isn't helping things either). At least it's not COVID...some small comfort
in that.
