Trailer Trash Pot Roast
Jump to Recipe
My friends and I decided to have an early holiday dinner to celebrate Christmas this week. A little while back, I came across this recipe on the Sticky, Gooey, Creamy, Chewy blog, but hadn’t gotten a chance to make it. A pot roast is a great thing to make during the holidays, because you can begin cooking it early, then cook everything else while it finishes cooking. This recipe combines Coca Cola and Chili Sauce for a perfect combination of sweet and spicy.

- 1 can Coca Cola

- 1 bottle Chili Sauce
- 2 medium onions peeled and quartered
- 4 carrots scrubbed and chopped into 1″ chunks
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 F.
- Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season roast with salt and pepper, then sear the meat until browned on both sides (about 1-2 minutes per side). Remove from heat.

- Serve with mashed potatoes, hot buttered egg noodles or crusty bread to absorb the sauce.

Why is it called “Trailer Trash” pot roast?
Not sure actually haha, that is just what the other blog called the recipe. I think maybe because it involves putting soda in your recipe?
