Colaroast Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place meat in a roasting pan. Sprinkle carrots, celery and minced garlic around roast.
• In a small bowl, combine the brown gravy mix and water, mixing into a smooth paste. Add onion soup mix, cream of mushroom soup and cola-flavored carbonated beverage. Pour over the roast.
• Cover pan, and cook 1 hour in the preheated oven.
• Reduce oven temperature to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C), and continue cooking 2 hours. Remove from oven, and turn roast over so that the top is now covered with the gravy. Cover pan, and return to oven for a minimum of 2 hours.
• Remove from oven, and let meat rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Season the roast well on all sides with 2 teaspoons of the salt and the pepper. On a cutting board combine the remaining salt, minced garlic and rosemary and, using the side of a knife, mash against the board repeatedly to form a paste. Using a small paring knife, make thin slits into the roast on all sides, about 2 inches apart, and fill the holes with the garlic-rosemary paste. Repeat until you have used all of the paste.
• Heat a Dutch oven over high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the roast and cook until very well browned on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the beef stock and cola and bring to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. Add the tomato paste and stir to blend. The liquid should be about 1/2 way up the sides of the roast. Cover the Dutch oven, place in oven, and roast until the meat is fork-tender, about 3 1/2 hours, turning the meat every hour and adding extra water if necessary to keep the liquid level at about 1/3 up the sides of the roast.
• When the meat is fork-tender, remove the roast from the oven and carefully transfer the roast to a serving platter. Cover loosely to keep warm.
• Skim off as much of the fat from the surface of the cooking liquid as possible. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the fat in a small bowl and add the flour. Stir to make a smooth paste. Add 1/2 cup of the hot cooking liquid to the bowl and whisk to combine. Slowly whisk this mixture into the hot cooking liquid that remains in the Dutch oven and place over high heat on the stovetop. Cook, whisking frequently, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Continue to cook for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and any floury taste is gone. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
• Serve the roast with the hot gravy.

Steps:

• Place roast in crockpot.
• Combine mushroom soup and dry onion soup.
• Pour over roast.
• Pour cola over all.
• Cover and cook on LOW for 8-9 hours.

Steps:

• Place the roast in a deep covered roasting pan.
• Sprinkle the soup mix over it, and dump the cream of mushroom soup over that.
• Pour the cola over all and DO NOT MIX!
• Add cut-up vegetables.
• Cover roast and bake, undisturbed, in a 350 degree oven for 3 hours.

Steps:

• Spray slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
• Place roast in slow cooker.
• Mix remaining ingredients in a bowl and pour over roast in the slow cooker.
• Cook on low for 8-9 hours or high for 5 hours.
• When finished, slice roast and pour extra sauce on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Wash the turkey well, and pat dry with paper towels. Use your hands to slather the whole turkey, front and back, with butter. Make sure to butter the wing tips and leg ends. Place the turkey into a roasting pan, and pour the cola over the turkey. Sprinkle the whole turkey with salt and black pepper.
• Roast the turkey for 4 to 5 hours, checking for doneness after 4 hours. Baste the turkey every 30 minutes with the turkey drippings. If the breast skin browns too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the turkey from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
