Coca-Cola© 7-Bone Roast Recipe

Preparation: Prepare a 9 by 13-inch baking pan by lining it with foil. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Sprinkle 7-bone roast liberally with salt and pepper . Heat a heavy-duty skillet until very hot, add the olive oil , and quickly sear the 7-bone roast on both sides. Place seared roast in baking pan. Surround with potatoes , mushrooms , and carrots in an even layer. Spread sliced onions evenly over the top of the meat and vegetables. Mix cola , tomato sauce , onion soup mix, paprika , oregano , and garlic powder in a bowl until combined. Pour evenly over meat and vegetables . Cover tightly with foil. Roast for 2 hours. Remove from oven and let rest at least 15 minutes. Carve meat. Serve with vegetables and pan gravy. Note: Use the same method in a large oval slow-cooker , cooking on low setting for 6 to 8 hours. Or, omit the vegetables (except the sliced onions), and cook the 7-bone roast alone as a main dish.
