- Two to three days before serving, wipe the meat with a damp cloth, then place in a large plastic bag. In a large bowl, thoroughly combine vinegar, Coca-Cola, water,onions, celery, carrots, pepper, cloves, bay leaves, sugar and salt; pour over meat. Fasten bag tightly and lay flat in a 9" X 13" pan. Chill, turning bag each day. (If desired sour sauerbraten, let marinate for 4 days.) When ready to cook, remove meat (saving marinade) and dry well. Rub the surface lightly with flour. In a Dutch oven, heat oil and slowly brown the meat well on all sides. Add in 1 c. of the marinade liquid plus some of the vegetables and bay leaves. Cover tightly and simmer on surface heat or possibly in a preheated 350F oven for 3 to 4 hrs till the meat is fork tender. If needed, add in more marinade during the cooking time to keep at least 1/2 inch liquid in the Dutch oven. Remove the meat and keep hot till ready to slice. Into a large measuring c., strain the drippings. Add in several ice cubes and let stand for a few min till the fat separates out. Remove the fat, then make the gravy.
- TO MAKE THE GRAVY:In the Dutch oven, combine the gravy ingredients, stir and cook for about 5 min over medium heat till gravy has thickened. Taste for seasonings and adjust if necessary. This makes about 3 c. of gravy.
