Sauerbraten stew is a traditional German dish that has been enjoyed for centuries. It is a beef stew that is marinated in a mixture of vinegar, spices, and herbs, then braised until the meat is fall-apart tender. The result is a flavorful and hearty stew that is perfect for a cold winter day. There are many different recipes for sauerbraten stew, but they all share a few common ingredients and techniques. The key to making a great sauerbraten stew is to use high-quality beef and to marinate the meat for at least 24 hours. The longer the meat marinates, the more flavorful it will be. Once the meat is marinated, it is browned in a pot or Dutch oven, then braised in a flavorful broth until it is fall-apart tender.

STEW BEEF SAUERBRATEN



Stew Beef Sauerbraten image

This is the quickest and easiest way to make Sauerbraten that was handed down by my grandmother. Our family has always used a pressure cooker. However, a Dutch oven or large pot may be substituted but this would increase the cooking time.

2 tablespoons shortening
2 pounds cubed beef stew meat

Pour this into the pressure cooker, and cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until thickened.
