(Sauerbraten) German Pot Roast image

Here is a delicious twist on a classic German recipe my family loves. Sauerbraten a/k/a German Pot Roast. Served with a yummy side of parmesan zucchini mashed potatoes this makes for a really hearty warm up on a cold winter evening. And It's easy in the slow cooker too.

Categories     Roasts

Time 4h20m

Number Of Ingredients 16

3-4 lb lean sirloin tip roast
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 small cabbage head
1 Tbsp garlic and herb seasoning
1 tsp ground thyme
1 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 bottle beer, not lite (full flavoredis best)
1/4 c water
1 c mushrooms, fresh **optional*
1 1/2 Tbsp red wine vinegar *add right before serving*
2 Tbsp whole grain mustard
2 Tbsp brown mustard
1 Tbsp corn starch
1/4 c water, cold

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat large skillet on stovetop over medium high heat. Add 2Tablespoons Olive or Canola oil then rub sirloin tip roast with dried herbs & Worcestershire sauce. Place in hot skillet and sear on both sides until browned 3-5 minutes per side.
  • 2. Cut cabbage into 1x1 inch square pieces and place into bottom of slow cooker along with sliced onions & mushrooms. Peel carrots cut into 1" pieces then add to veggie mixture.
  • 3. Place browned roast on top of veggies then add 1 bottle beer & water then spread both mustards onto roast & cover. low for 5 hours. To thicken gravy/sauce combine corn starch and water slowly pour into liquid prior to serving whisk well and cover to bring back to a boil. This should thicken nicely. Shake in 2-3 dashes of vinegar prior to service.
  • 4. Serve this roast cut into thin strips on a bed of the veggies and along side of my recipe for parmesan mashed zucchini potatoes then top all with the gravy/sauce. Very hearty meal.

This recipe takes me back to my childhood. My mom used to make this dish all the time.

I think you may be right. I didn't marinate it for as long as the recipe called for. I'll try it again this weekend, and I'll make sure to marinate it for longer. Thanks for the tip!

I'm not sure why you're getting tough meat. I've made this dish multiple times, and it's always been tender and juicy. Maybe you didn't marinate it long enough. Or, maybe you overcooked it.

I made this dish for my family last weekend. It was good, but the meat was a little tough. I'm not sure what I did wrong. Any suggestions?

This is my favorite recipe for Sauerbraten, but I like to add some caraway seeds to the marinade.

I made this dish last night for my wife. We both loved it! She's already asked me to make it again this weekend. I would highly recommend trying this recipe. It's as good as anything you'd get in a restaurant.

I'm a chef, and I make a variation of this dish for my restaurant. I add a bit of red wine vinegar to the marinade, and I also like to use a combination of beef and pork. It's a popular dish at my restaurant, and I'm happy to see it featured here.

Made this for my family last weekend. It was a hit! The meat was tender and juicy, and the gravy was rich and flavorful. I've already gotten multiple requests to make it again this weekend. 5 stars! Will definitely be my go-to Sauerbraten recipe from

This is a superb recipe! It's probably the best German Sauerbraten I've had. I used venison instead of horse meat, and it turned out incredibly tender and flavorful. Will definitely be making this dish again, and will be trying the traditional versio
