Traditional German Slow Cooker Sauerbraten
A traditional European dish that your slow cooker than definitely make wonders with.
How European do you usually go when you prepare special European dishes at home? Are you more traditional and do you go the modern fusion type? Well, in my case I go for the traditional recipes.
And what better way than to cook it in a slow cooker to give the dish a more tender and flavorful result, right? This recipe just fits right into the specifications I mentioned. It’s German, traditional and I could cook it in my slow cooker giving it a more scrumptious dish serve on my dining table.
