Talk about your heirloom recipes! My grandmother made this for my mother when she was a child, and she made it for us to enjoy. Paprika and caraway add wonderful flavor and sour cream gives it a creamy richness. It’s simply scrumptious! —Marcia Doyle, Pompano Beach, Florida

It lacked a little something in flavor for me, but a great hit with those that I amde it for.

Not bad. Easy to put together. I would try altering the spices a bit next time; we thought it was a bit bland. In addition, I would recommend stirring it once during cooking (I know you aren't supposed to do that for slow cookers). The meat on the top was dried out terribly, despite having the liquid mixture poured on top.
