Main Ingredients
- 3 pounds beef roast
- 1 can (12 fl oz) cola
- 1 packet (about 1 oz) onion soup mix
- Prepare the beef roast: Place the 3-pound beef roast into the slow cooker, ensuring it fits comfortably without overlapping sides.
- Add cola: Pour one entire can of cola evenly over the beef roast, covering it to provide flavor and moisture during cooking.
- Season with onion soup mix: Sprinkle the packet of onion soup mix evenly on top of the roast to add savory flavor.
- Cook slowly: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on the low setting for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
Notes
- For best results, use a chuck roast or similar cut suitable for slow cooking to ensure tenderness.
- Do not add extra water as the cola provides enough liquid for cooking.
- Optionally, strain the cooking liquid after cooking to make a flavorful gravy.
- Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3-4 days and freeze well for up to 3 months.
