Sauerbraten (Roast with Gravy)

German sauerbraten is an amazing tender roast with a rich gravy. It is a loved main dish in all of Germany. Each family likely has their own recipe for this much loved dish however I found that in many of them the secret is using ginger snaps as the thickener in the gravy. This takes several days to make as the meat should marinate for 3 to 5 days. The result is the most tender meat you probably ever ate. It literally melts in your mouth. Make it with some potato dumplings and red cabbage for an authentic German meal! Guten Appetit!
