  • Prep 15 min
  • Total 8 hr 45 min
  • Servings 10

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 3-pound beef boneless tip roast, trimmed of fat
  • 2 teaspoons caraway seed
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 bag (16 ounces) frozen small whole onions
  • 1 can (16 ounces) Bavarian-style sauerkraut, undrained
  • 1/2 cup dark beer or Progresso™ beef flavored broth
  • 1/4 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Cook beef in oil about 5 minutes or until brown on all sides. Sprinkle with caraway seed and salt.
  • 2
    Place beef in 5- to 6-quart slow cooker. Place onions, sauerkraut and 1/4 cup of the beer around beef.
  • 3
    Cover and cook on Low heat setting 6 to 8 hours.
  • 4
    Remove beef from cooker; cover to keep warm. Mix flour, remaining 1/4 cup beer and the mustard in small bowl; gradually stir into juices in cooker. Increase heat setting to High. Cover and cook 15 to 30 minutes or until slightly thickened. Serve beef with juices.

  • Prefer tangy sauerkraut? Use the regular flavor instead of the sweeter Bavarian-style.
  • Create a full German menu with this roast, spaetzle (the traditional German dumpling) or buttered egg noodles, a spinach salad with bacon dressing and crusty rolls.
  • Serve the sliced beef on pumpernickel bread spread with hearty German mustard and topped with the sauerkraut mixture.
