Sauerbraten (German Beef Roast with Gingersnap Sauce)

Based on a German dish called Sauerbraten [SOW-uhr-brahtihn],this roast (with a flavorful sauce that is off the charts delicious) takes on sweet and sour flavors from unique ingredients, like pickling spices, vinegar, gingersnaps, and gin (for the juniper berry taste). Authentic sauerbraten marinates for days, but this interpretation lets you have dinner on the table in just a few hours. True to this recipe's claim, my slow cooker made this recipe in four hours. If you've ever had sauerbraten, this recipe nailed it when it came to the flavor. I did just a couple of very minor tweaks. I served this with homemade spaetzle and red cabbage.
