Sounds lovely. Will give it a try.

It is. I just had it. :) I used Kroger chili sauce and RC Cola.

I would use beer instead of coke - because I'm a total health nut.

If you try it let me know. I don't know if it would taste good without the sugar from the soda. Typically I used pure cane soda, but I do sometimes use RC or Coke in a pinch.

I use beer or wine for braising all the time, especially a strong dark beer. I wonder if the acid in the Coke helps tenderize the meat?

It might to some degree but I think it mostly undercuts the strong flavor of the chili sauce.

Sounds great .. I may have to give this one a try once using Coke and once using beer .. lol

It's really simple. If you have the time set the Crockpot to high initially for about an hour and then you can drop it back down to low.

Thank you - I'll give it a try :)

This sounds like it would be delicious... and so easy!!! 💗

It really is. You might try using more soda if the chili sauce makes it too spicy for you. I use Kroger brand (store brand) rather than, say, Heinz. The former is lighter, the latter, much stronger.
