Steps:
- 1. Place your chuck or rump roast in an earthenware bowl with the first 8 ingredients.
- 2. In saucepan heat red wine vinegar on medium heat until boiling. Remove from heat and pour over the meat mixture in bowl. Let marinate for 3 days or more. Turn twice a day using wooden spoons. IMPORTANT NOTE!!!! NEVER pierce the meat with a fork. Keep in a cool place.
- 3. When ready to cook, drain meat (do not discard the marinade!!!) and brown it thoroughly on all sides in hot fat in a heavy skillet. Add marinade with vegetables to skillet but not enough to cover the meat.
- 4. Simmer slowly 3 to 4 hours or until tender. Or cook for 1 hour in pressure cooker at 10 pounds of pressure. Serve with boiled potatoes and sweet sour red cabbage.
- 5. Sauerbraten Gravy: Melt 1/4 lb butter, add 1 Tbsp sugar and about 1/4 C flour to make a roux. Let darken as much as possible, stirring constantly. Slowly add 1 cup marinade, 2/3C red wine and continue cooking until gravy is the consistency of heavy cream. Strain.
