Instructions

Step 1 : Preparation

In a large mixing bowl, combine the red wine, red wine vinegar, chopped onion, chopped carrot, chopped celery, bay leaves, peppercorns, cloves, juniper berries, allspice berries, and brown sugar.

Step 2 : Marinating

Place the beef roast in a Dutch oven and pour the marinade over it. Cover and refrigerate for at least 24 hours, turning the roast occasionally.

Step 3 : Cooking

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Remove the beef roast from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Strain the marinade and reserve the liquid. In a Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the beef roast and brown on all sides. Remove the beef roast from the Dutch oven and set aside.

Step 4 : Sauce

In the same Dutch oven, add the reserved marinade liquid and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. In a blender, blend the gingersnap cookies and flour until fine. Slowly whisk the gingersnap mixture into the simmering liquid until thickened.

Step 5 : Braising

Return the beef roast to the Dutch oven and pour the sauce over it. Cover and transfer to the preheated oven. Braise for 2 to 3 hours, or until the beef is tender.

Step 6 : Serving

Remove the beef roast from the Dutch oven and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice the beef roast and serve with the sauce.
