We got one of those Roemertopf unglazed clay pots as a wedding present going on 31 years ago, probably haven't used it a dozen times... saw it in the back of the cabinet and thought well, let's try it.

Didn't make that exact recipe, just cut a bunch of shoulder meat up into maybe two-inch cubes and soaked them in vinegar water overnight... then put them in the clay pot with some onions, carrots, and potatoes like a regular pot roast, put some Dijon mustard and a little butter on top of the meat and baked it at 300 for four hours. Drained the juice out, added some more mustard and a little cornstarch and reduced it to a sauce, turned out real well.

No need to add water if you use the clay pot, lots of it in the pot and the veggies. And next time I'll leave the cornstarch out, just take a little longer to reduce it.
