Variations & Tips
For a different flavor profile, try using root beer or Dr. Pepper in place of Coca Cola. You can also add baby potatoes to the pot for a complete one-pot meal. If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the pot juices on the stovetop over medium heat until thickened. For a leaner option, use a bottom round roast instead of chuck roast.
