So who's going to be the first to try this one from rfr?
I've actually tasted this when a friend of mine made it. For me it was a little odd and too salty, but others might like it.
I guess I should add that the only individual item in this recipe that I really like is the roast.

I don't like roasts because I don't like to cook and I've seen this before as a crockpot recipe. Thing is, we buy a side of beef every year and last year I failed to tell the locker to grind up the roasts as hamburger. So I have a freezer full of exactly what I don't like, and I have to use it--and my next side of beef is coming up on me in 2 weeks.
Usually with roasts I end up cubing them up and making stroganoff. Sometimes I crockpot them in teriyaki. But this looks like a promising alternative to my SOP.
You never know how weird ingredients will meld together in a nice blend of flavors. I mean, really. Look at the ingredients in Worcestershire sauce. Who'd'a'thunk?
There was a TV series in the UK "The Vicar of Dibley" which featured Letitia Cropley, a dotty old lady (played by Liz Smith) who concocted such delicacies ketchup icing, anchovies with peanut butter, tripe salad and ham with lemon curd.
I would think the corrosive qualities of the coke would make a good marinade.
My friendly Coke fiend tells me he's done it with ham and it was quite tasty.
Oooh! Send them my way. We did a roast in the crock pot yesterday. One roast, a huge can of low-sodium tomato juice, carrots, potatoes, and parsnips (peeled, in pieces) and cook on low 10 hours (or however long your "workday" is) and Yum! The leftovers can be shredded up and mixed with BBQ sauce for sandwiches or a bit of seasoning and cheese for tacos.
There's no law that says you have to use the roasts as roasts. Cut them up into stew meat of strips for stir fry. Make beef jerky (depending on fat content). Make barbeque. Some people use non-ground meat for chili.
Now's the time to experiment with new recipes.
We love that show. It's on Saturday nights here - in the umpteenth re-running version. Some of those recipes were just unbelievable.

I've made this for years = mostly in the crockpot - and I'll admit the flavor is strong - the dry onion soup, I think - but always has been good. It's been especially good on the cheaper cuts which usually have been tough even in the crockpot.
I've even used other sodas - but coke is the family favorite. Try it!
