VENISON SAUERBRATEN
Steps:
- Marinate the venison: Put marinade ingredients (wine, vinegar, water, peppercorns, juniper, mustard, cloves, bay leaves, thyme, celery, carrots and onion) in a pot and bring to a boil. Turn off heat and allow the marinade to cool. Submerge the venison in the marinade and refrigerate for at least 24 hours, and up to 5 days. Three days is a good length of time for this. When you are ready to cook, remove the roast from the marinade and sprinkle it all over with salt. Set it aside for 15-20 minutes or so.
- Preheat the oven to 275°F: Actually, 225°F is a better temperature, but the roast can take up to 8 hours to properly cook then; this is what I do at home on weekends. At 275°F, the roast will probably take about 5 hours to cook. You can go up to 300°F - a typical venison roast will be ready in 3 1/2 hours at this temperature - but you will get gray, not pink, meat. It will still taste good, though.
- Brown venison in butter or oil (optional): Now you have an optional step: You can, if you choose, brown the venison in butter or oil. I chose not to because if you then simmer the venison at a low enough temperature, it will remain pink all the way through. If you brown the outside, you will get a gray ring around the edge of the venison when you cut into it. Either way is fine.
- Cook the venison in the marinade: Pour the marinade into a Dutch oven or other lidded, oven-proof pot and bring it to a boil. Add the venison to the pot. Cover and put in the oven. If the venison is not submerged by the marinade, turn the roast over every hour. This is also a good way to test for doneness - you want the roast to almost be falling apart. The roast should take between 3 1/2 to 8 hours to cook, depending on the oven temperature. At 275°F, it should take about 5 hours to cook.
- Remove roast from oven and coat with oil or melted butter: When the roast is done (completely tender), take it out of the pot and coat it with some of the 1/4 cup olive oil or melted butter. Reserve the rest of the oil or butter for later. Wrap it in foil.
- Make the sauerbraten sauce: Sauerbraten is all about the sauce. Strain the cooking liquid through a fine-meshed sieve into a bowl. Take the 8 gingersnap cookies and pulverize them in a blender. You want it to look like a rough meal or coarse flour. In a medium-sized pot, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. When it is frothing and totally melted, whisk in 2 tablespoons flour. Cook the roux until it is the color of coffee-and-cream, stirring often. Slowly whisk in the strained cooking liquid, one cup at a time. The mixture will turn to clay at first, then loosen into a silky sauce. Taste for salt - it will probably need it - and add enough to your taste. Whisk in 4 tablespoons of the pulverized gingersnaps. They will not dissolve completely at first, but keep stirring and they will disappear. Taste the sauce. Add another tablespoon of gingersnaps if you want, or add a tablespoon of sugar. The sauce should taste sour, warm (a pumpkin pie sort of spicy warm) and a little zippy and sweet.
- To serve, slice the roast into 1/4 inch thick slices: Venison can be dry - it has zero fat - so one trick I do is to coat each slice in melted butter before I serve it. You'll need about 1/2 stick melted to do this trick. Serve with lots of sauce, some braised onions, and either mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or spaetzle. A hearty red wine would be an ideal match here, as would a dark, malty beer.

- Three days before making the sauerbraten, bring the vinegar, red wine, juniper, cloves, bay leaves, salt, pepper, onion, and two cups of water to a boil in a pot. Stir to dissolve the salt, then remove from the heat and cool. Submerge the meat in the cold marinade and refrigerate for three days.
- After three days, remove the roast from the marinade and dry well, reserving the marinade for later. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In a large, heavy-bottomed pot over high heat, heat the lard or oil and brown the roasts on all sides. Once the meat is browned, pour the marinade through a fine strainer into the pot. Bring to a simmer, cover, and place in the oven. Braise the roast for 3 to 5 hours or until it’s very tender.
- Once it’s cooked, gently remove the roasts with a large slotted spoon to a serving platter and place the pot back on the burner over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and reduce the sauce down to about three or four cups. Add the brown sugar and gingersnaps and whisk for a couple of minutes until very smooth. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper then spoon the sauce over the sauerbraten and serve.
