Ingredients

  • 2 cup cider vinegar
  • 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 2 large onions, sliced (about 2 cups)
  • 2 large carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces (about 1 cup)
  • 10 gingersnap cookies, crushed
  • 1 can (10 1/2 ounces) Campbell's® Condensed Beef Consommé
  • Bouquet Garni
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 boneless beef rump roast (about 4 to 5 pounds)
  • 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 cup Burgundy or other dry red wine
  • 1/2 cup golden raisins
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the vinegar, brown sugar, onions, carrots, gingersnaps, consommé and Bouquet Garni in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat to a boil. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the water and let cool to room temperature.

  2. Place the beef in a large nonmetallic bowl. Add the vinegar mixture and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for about 72 hours, turning the beef over in the vinegar mixture 1 to 2 times per day.

  3. Remove the beef from the bowl and pat dry with paper towels. Reserve the vinegar mixture.

  4. Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until it's well browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the skillet and place it into a 6-quart slow cooker.

  5. Add the wine to the skillet and heat to a boil, stirring often. Pour the wine and the reserved vinegar mixture over the beef.

  6. Cover and cook on LOW for 7 to 8 hours or until the beef is fork-tender. Stir in the raisins and the sour cream, if desired.
