Bayrischer Sauerbraten (Bavarian Sauerbraten)

Bayrischer Sauerbraten (Bavarian Sauerbraten)
  • 1 (2 pound) boneless beef brisket
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 lemon, zested
  • 2 whole cloves
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 cups red wine vinegar
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 (1 pound) package bacon
  • 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 carrot, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
  • 1/2 cup beef stock, or as needed


  1. Place brisket on a work surface and pound firmly with the textured side of a meat mallet to break down the fibers. Place brisket, onion, lemon zest, cloves and bay leaf in a bowl. Mix vinegar and water and pour over brisket. Cover and refrigerate for 3 days, turning in the marinade daily.
  2. Remove brisket from marinade, reserving marinade. Wrap brisket in overlapping bacon strips to cover completely; season with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat; cook wrapped brisket until bacon is browned, about 5 minutes per side. Pour marinade into pan to cover half of the brisket; sprinkle carrot and parsley on top. Cover skillet and reduce heat to low. Cook brisket, turning occasionally and adding beef stock as liquid evaporates, until very tender, 2 to 3 hours. Slice brisket and arrange on a warm serving platter.
