SAUERBRATEN W/BRAISED CABBAGE & BUTTERED NOODLES

Steps:

• 1. In a large pot, add the canola or olive oil, and heat. Season the meat with salt & Pepper, on all sides. OR NOTE: I BLENDED 1 TABLESPOON EACH OF KOSHER SALT, PAPRIKA, BLACK PEPPER, CUMIN, & ONION POWDER, AND 1 1/2 TABLESPOONS GARLIC POWDER IN A SMALL BOWL, MIXED TOGETHER, AND SPRINKLED LIBERALLY ON ALL SIDES. Saved the remainder for another use later in a small spice bottle.
• 2. Then add the roast to the pot of hot oil and brown on all sides, it will take about 15 minutes more or less. Then I turned the fire off while I prepared the vegetables,As I chopped them I added them to a mediuum size bowl, the onions, celery, carrots, minced garlic,add the white wine vinegar to the bowl, the white wine, the 4 cups of cold water, whole cloves, peppercorns, the bay leaves parsley, thyme, & salt and pepper to the bowl, then stirred and then reheated pot with the roast, and added all of the chopped vegetables mixed with liquids & herbs & spices to the pot. Stir several times, cover pot with lid, & bring to a boil, lower heat and let simmer for 1 1/2 hours. Then turn roast over to other side and recover with lid, and allow to continue to simmer for an additional 1 1/2 hours.
• 3. Transfer the roast to a large platter, cover with foil to keep warm.Strain the liquid in pot to a large bowl, I saved the carrots and added to my cabbage, but it is not neccessary. Save 1/2 cup of liquid to be added to the braised cabbage.
• 4. I had a lot of liquid so you may not need it all. In a large skillet or sauce pan add the butter and heat till melted then whisk in the flour and stir until it is golden brown about 2 minutes. Then stir in the cooking liquid, then stir to mix, and reduce the heat to low, then cook until it is thickened then taste, add salt and pepper to taste. Now add the crushed ginger snaps, and honey to taste.
• 5. Carve the roast into nice thick slices, or it will crumbled if sliced too thin. ( I USED AN ELECTRIC KNIFE, FOR NICE FULL SLICES.) Arrange slices on platter and add the thickened gravy down the middle of meat slices. Served with Braised Red Cabbage & Buttered noodles. I had to add a separate recipe for those since this is quite a long list of ingredients & steps.
• 6. Since I had never made Sauerbraten, & wanted to do a good job, and wanted a trusted recipe, I relied on Bobby Flay, and he has not failed me yet. I love this recipe, but it is quite a bit of work in making the sides to go with it as well, but it is a proven winner as it always is with Bobby Flay. Thanks Food Network & Bobby Flay. I didn't follow exactly but close enough.

AUTHENTIC GERMAN SAUERBRATEN

Steps:

• Prepare the Marinade: Place all of the veggies and herbs in a heavy non-reactive stock pot or enameled Dutch oven along with the garlic, juniper berries, whole cloves, bay leaves, salt, sugar and peppercorns. Add the red wine, red wine vinegar and water.Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool down completely.
• Marinate the Meat: Nestle the roast in the vegetable marinade and place the lid on the pot.Let it marinate in the fridge for at least 4 days, preferably 7. (Traditionally, the marinating time is as long as 2 weeks!) Unless the meat is completely submerged under the liquid, turn the roast over once every day.Remove the roast, pat it dry with paper towels, and strain the liquid from the vegetables. Reserve the liquid and the vegetables.
• Cook the Roast: Rinse the pot out and heat a tablespoon or two of oil in it over high heat. Generously brown the roast on all sides. Remove the roast and set aside. If using bacon, cook the bacon until done. Leave about 2 tablespoons of oil/fat in the pot. Place the strained vegetables in the pot (with the bacon if using) and cook for 5-7 minutes. Stir in the flour, cooking the mixture for a minute or two to eliminate the flour flavor. Add the liquid that you strained from the vegetable marinade, bring it to a boil, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.Add the raisins, honey and crushed ginger snaps. Return the roast to the pot.Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for about 2 hours (may need less or longer depending on roast and marinating time) or until the meat is very tender.(Important Note: The longer you let the roast marinate the faster it will cook because the meat will be more tender from the start. So check on your roast periodically for doneness.)When the roast is done, remove and transfer it to a plate, tent it to keep warm, and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
• Prepare the Gravy: While the roast is resting, strain the gravy and return the gravy to the pot. Taste and more sugar, salt and pepper as desired. If you want your gravy thicker, make a cornstarch slurry to thicken the gravy. (Note: The balance of sour to sweet is a matter of personal taste - adjust the flavor according to your preference. If the flavor is too strong for you, you can dilute it with a little water or broth.)Spoon the gravy over the sliced Sauerbraten and serve immediately.
• Serve with Homemade German Rotkohl and boiled potatoes, Homemade German Spätzle, Semmelknödel or Kartoffelklöße . A few parts of Germany even serve it with Homemade Kartoffelpuffer.
