Yield
6 Servings
MeasureIngredient
5 pounds Beef roast
Ribs celery; sliced
Onion; chopped
Carrots; sliced
Cloves garlic; chopped
  Red wine vinegar
½ cup Spices (bay leaves; red pepper; thyme, basil and whole black peppercorns)
¼ cup Brown sugar
  Strained marinade
12  Gingersnaps
¼ cup Raisins

Place roast in plastic pan. Add vegetables and spices. Add equal parts of vinegar and water to cover meat. Cover and refrigerate 4-5 days. (I have hurried up and cooked it in 3 days and again waited as long as 7 days -- it's still delicious!) Drain roast, reserving marinade. Place in large pan; add carrots and bake at 350 until tender, about 2 hours. Melt sugar in iron skillet. Gradually add marinade, gingersnaps and raisins. Add more marinade as needed. (It takes quite a bit to make a smooth, thick sauce). Serve with potato pancakes. Guests will ask for this recipe.
