I have been making this recipe shortly after my husband and I started dating, almost 20 years ago. He wanted something different, using ground beef, and in searching many of my cookbooks, he came up with this recipe, I had reservations at first, but made it anyway, it was so good, that he requested it again soon after the first...

1/4 c chopped onion
1/4 c raisins,optional
1/2 tsp salt
1 lb lean ground beef
2 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp vinegar
2 Tbsp water
1 tsp prepared mustard
dash of pepper
hot cooked noodles, rice or mashed potatoes

Steps:

1. These are the ingredients needed to make this tasty recipe. This picture is compliments of our Just a Pinch Member Wiley P. Thanks again Wiley.
2. Reserve 2 tablespoons of crushed gingersnaps. Combine remaining crushed gingersnaps, 2 tablespoons tomato sauce, onions, raisins & salt. Add meat; mix well. Shape into 4 1/2 inch thick patties.
3. Brown in skillet: Drain off fat. Combine remaining tomato sauce, sugar, vinegar, water, mustard, and pepper. Pour over burgers. Cover and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, spooning sauce over meat. Remove burgers. Stir in reserved 2 tablespoons gingersnaps into sauce in skillet. Cook & stir until bubbly. Return burgers to skillet. Heat through. Serve with noodles, rice or potatoes.
4. This recipe is so good that I always double the recipe when ever I make it, and there are never any left overs. Also note I also plump my raisins in microwave for about 5 minutes, by covering them with water and heating in microwave for 5 minutes, then let them sit, and drain the water off,and then add them to the meat mixture. This adds extra moisture & slight sweet flavor to the patties. Picture is compliments of Wiley P.

Tips:

Use a good quality beef chuck roast for the best flavor and texture.
Marinating the beef in the wine, vinegar, and spice mixture for at least 24 hours helps to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
Braise the beef roast in the marinade until it is fall-apart tender. This can take up to 3 hours.
Shred the beef roast with two forks, or use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
Use a combination of bread crumbs and flour to help bind the beef mixture together.
Season the beef mixture with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices.
Form the beef mixture into patties and cook them in a pan with hot oil until they are browned on both sides and cooked through.
Serve the sauerbraten burgers on buns with your favorite toppings, such as sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.

Conclusion:

Sauerbraten burgers are a delicious and unique twist on the classic hamburger. The marinated beef roast gives the burgers a tender and flavorful interior, while the crispy breading and toppings add a satisfying crunch and tang. Whether you are serving them for a casual cookout or a special occasion, sauerbraten burgers are sure to be a hit.
