If you want to substitute a period recipe and don't insist on its 
being German, let me recommend Fylettes in Galantine. Like 
sauerbraten it is sour, it is very tasty, and it isn't particularly 
hard to make. You can find a recipe in the Miscellany; I think the 
original is either 14th or 15th c. English.
