or *sauerbraten gewurtz sauerbraten spice

gravy
20 gingersnaps

 

 

1.You can marinate the meat right in the crockpot if you like. Keep it in a cool place or the fridge. I like to marinate it for at least several days. If you marinate it overnight it is still great however.

2. Strain the marinade and add back to the crockpot.

3. Cook for 3 hours or until the meat is starting to fall apart.

 

4. On a cutting board use 2 forks to shred the meat

5. Add ginger snaps to the juice in the crockpot and cook till thickened. If you like the gravy thicker add more ginger snaps.

 

6. Add the shredded sauerbraten to the gravy and heat.

 

Serve over potato dumplings with Rotkohl ( sweet and sour red cabbage) and salad.
