Traditional German Sauerbraten Recipe

Sauerbraten (German pot roast) • The View from Great …

WEBSep 16, 2020 · Make the recipe as written up through step 3. In step 4 place the meat and marinade in your Instant Pot and cook on high …

1. Put all the marinade ingredients into a large non-reactive pot such as cast iron (make sure it's big enough to hold the marinade and meat.) Bring to a boil, then let cool to room temperature.
2. Submerge the chuck roast into the marinade, and cover tightly. Refrigerate for up to 3 days. If your meat is not fully covered in liquid, plan to give it a turn every day so it marinates evenly. You can also do this in a very large heavy duty zip lock bag.
3. Remove the meat from the marinade (it will be beautifully pink from the wine) and pat it dry, removing any stray bits of veggie as well. Remove the marinade to a bowl and wipe out the pot. Lightly coat the bottom of the pot with oil and heat until quite hot but not smoking. Brown the meat on all sides.
4. Add the marinade back into the pot with the meat and bring to a boil. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom as you heat. Now you have a choice: either turn the heat down, cover, and let gently simmer on the stove for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or you can cover and put the pot into a 325F oven for the same amount of time. Note: whichever method you choose, you want the pot to be a gentle simmer, not a rolling boil, so adjust heat accordingly. I check it a few times during cooking to make sure.
