This was so good Lou said he thought he was going to lick his brains out. I only used one TBL Salt and it was plenty for the recipe. I made the Spaetzl recipe on this site and my, oh my what a delicious meal.

I am originally from Southern Germany and in my area (around Stuttgart) this is our national dish. It is not like the typical German Sauerbraten found in American "German" restaurants. The Sauerbraten III recipe gets close to what I know, except: we marinate for 3 to 5 days, turning over the meat every night; at the end, before serving, we add a 1/4 cup of heavy cream (or 1/2 cup of evap milk, or a several tablespoons of sour cream). That's what you get in Southern Germany and Austria when you order Sauerbraten. Once you try it, you will forever love it!

Will not be making this again. Marinated for 48 hours and it was still pretty bland, did not have any of the sour taste that I love in Sauerbraten.

I used a pork roast for this recipe and it turned out really well. My parents came over to eat and they really enjoyed it. I think it was falvorful and tasted a lot like what I've had in restaurants. Next time I might add more cloves because I like the taste they give. I served this dish with spaetzel noodles (instant), sauerkraut balls and potato pancakes.

This is fantastic...almost like my Mom's, who is of German descent. Even my brother and sister thought it was close!

A great alternative to the regular pot roast. I think I should have let it marinate longer. I only did it for about 18 hours. I thought it would be really sour, and it was just a nice background flavor. I served it with egg noodles and corn.

Absolutely delicious! This is the best sauerbraten recipe i have ever tried. I used round steak rather than roast, and it turned out fantastic..i recommend to all.

Absolutly Awsome! I've tried many sauerbraten recipies, and this is by far the best! My husband is from Germany, and said this is the best he's ever had. I served this with fried spetzles and it was fantastic. I recommend anyone looking for good sauerbraten to try this one. I will be making this often.

This was horrible! Tasted like a roast marinated in vinegar. Other than the vinegar taste, there was no taste at all. I even put in additional cloves! Thank God for Gravy Master! My grandmother, who is German, in a diplomatic way said it was "The most disgusting dish I ever tasted."

I made this recipe and it was SO good. My husband said it was the best Sauerbraten he had ever had (and he has eaten it in several good local German restaurants). My mom (who is from Germany) tried it and agreed it was the best! And I never even liked Sauerbraten before I tried this one. Many times, it is too sweet for my taste. This was PERFECT!
