Being a German household we have German food quite a lot. And I am not talking about Brats or Eisbein (pig knuckles). And since we are not from Bavaria either we never felt the urge to celebrate it. And by the way the German Oktoberfest in Muenchen has been cancelled again for the 2nd time because of Covid.

We've got friends coming over Sunday evening to watch the Bears {hopefully} beat the Packers, so it is most appropriate that brats and Hofbrau will be on the menu.

I’m half German from my Mother’s side. My grandparents came to America in the late 1900’s. We’d go to their house for Sunday dinner, it would often be Saurbraten, Rouladen or Kassler Rippchen. We have a decent German restaurant near us that I’ve been to before maybe we’ll check it out again. Last time I went I had the “Farmer’s Feast”, it was a ton of food. I’ve already been hittin’ the Hofbrau for a week!

I'm also half German and Lithuanian.
Some good restaurants and delis for both when I lived in Chicago.
Moved out here and it was hard to find anything except Wurst kitchen in Aurora.
There are a few Bohoc joints in western springs but on e German place was great that my older brother took me to.

My mom’ from Germany and Rouladen was part of our Christmas meals. I love that dish…but not with the pickle.

When I was a kid I didn’t like the pickle either, now I’d love it. I probably haven’t had Rouladen in 50 years. I only think about German food when Oktoberfest rolls around, kinda like corned beef and cabbage on St Patrick’s Day.

What did he marinate it in?
I have a batch fermenting...
Sorry, too much typing for these old fingers today

That's OK Joan.
I usually add a thinly sliced sweet onion and apple, bacon, white wine and a pinch of brown sugar.
Never heard or tried marinating it...
