Sauerbraten is translated to Sour Roast or Sour Beef and is a German pot roast with a slightly sour taste for the meat and also for the gravy. To counter the sourness of the ingredients like wine and vinegar, some sweet ingredients are added, i.e. gingerbread.

this …am trying this for sure in the near future…no idea where to get celery root…maybe if I drive into the city and go to whole foods?
I have a beautiful Chuck Roast I’ll be using. Here in Iowa we a Store Called Fare Way. They sell a raw Honey from a Farm here that is run by German immigrants. Called Schmidt Farm. Aldi should have the Spaetzle. Love the shirt. Do they come in mens
A very informative and easy to follow along video! I've really wanted to make this dish after watching a lot of Hogan's Heroes (a 1960's US comedy about Allied prisoners of war in Germany) and they are always making German food out to be disliked by all, even the German soldiers. But while doing that they make sauerbraten look so good on the show! Growing up in Chicago and going to the Burghoff often I've been happy to have German food frequently but I've never tried this, and I really look forward to making it now!
What type of red wine is best to use?
This is one of my favorite dishes. Thank you for sharing the recipe and for walking us through it.
I made this dish along with the red sour cabbage and cucumbers with yogurt and I added my own fried potatoes and a seedless rye bread. Praises from all dinner guests. Your recipes are very good. Thank you for making my dinner party a success.
WOW! My grandmother use to make this and even as a child I loved it. Today it is my favorite German meal. I had no idea that it took so long to make it. Thank you so much. 😋
a bit behind the times on this one!
it's a classic!
for UK, use topside or silverside, no idea what that translates too…but it look like you used our equivalent..
keep posting on you tube.. please 👍👍🏴
the meat should complete floated with the marinade."Beize"
Lebkuchen is darker spicer cookie used in Franconian Sauerbraten, also great with Spaetzel and also red cabbage on side. .
I really want to thank you for having a place on your webpage where you can go and find out what the American Standard is rather than the German metric I'm an American and I'm not from Europe. Thank you for that one little bit of helpful being able to change metric to standard PS I have used some of your recipes and I have had nothing but absolute Rave about them. And thank you God bless
I’m making this for our Sunday dinner. Thank you so much for the inspiration. I will tag this video in my post. You are amazing.
Thank you! I wish I still lived in Katy where there is so much good German food like this!
Can you still cook the vegetables?
Do you make red cabbage with apples?
Years ago, my Mom had a German friend who was a wonderful cook. I have so many fond memories… She made her sauerbraten with a buttermilk marinade. I would love to find a recipe for it. Are you familiar with this version? It was delicious. Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes. I have just recently discovered your channel. 🙂
You should move to Central Pennsylvania! You'd fit right in here! #PaDutch
I was stationed in Frankfurt in the Air Force and loved the food. I followed this recipe and it took me right back. Danke!
I love this meat,I’m Cuban we us to go to this authentic German restaurant and always ask for with potato pancake ,so sad that they close the place, but I will tray now to make it home, thanks for sharing
May I ask you I was stationed in Germany many years ago for 2 1/2 years and married a German lady. I know lots of different sauerbraten. But why not boil the marinade does that matter? We love to cook all kinds of cuisine and just started a Youtube channel.
May I know all the names of the ingredients.Thank you.
Thank you so much for sharing, I can’t wait to try……. But please don’t stir with your knives or bang them on your pot😑😑…. They will thank for it by staying super sharp 😏… thank you again for an amazing channel
I use ginger snaps as well.
No Christmas is complete in our home without this dish. It’s a real treat for us every year. Thank you for all these recipes that remind me of my Omi and family in Germany.
Really enjoy your content. Thank you for taking the time to share it with everyone.
Looks wunderbar. Do you have a suggestion for type of red wine, such as cabernet, merlot etc.? I would love to surprise my German wife.
Looks really good. 👍
I add a pinch of baking soda to take out the sour
Works great with tomato sauces and soups also
Ahhh! I remember the days when we could all afford beef!
What kind of wine do you use?
My mother would have sauerbraten and kartoffelknoedel about every month from a German war brides recipe. What is the proper dumpling recipe to use? I enjoy very much watching your cooking.
Always loved Sauerbraten and this recipe looks delicious

Hallo aus Colorado – (und Bayern 😉) liebe Grüße nach Texas 💃🙏🏻. Freue mich an ihren Rezepten. Sauerbraten hmmm … wir machen das manchmal aus ELK und Spätzle. Phantastisch!
Das Und dann Knäckebrot….. und viele andere Rezepte von Ihnen hmmmm Danke!!
Frau, could you perhaps consider making wine soup? I read it in an old German cookbook from the 50's!
Would you do please do the Spätzle recipe
When you marinade the meat, do you turn the meat over at any time or just leave it alone?
