  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.  Refrigerate, turning bag
  each day. (If you like 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 1 cup of the marinade liquid
  plus some of the vegetables and bay leaves. Cover tightly and simmer
  on surface heat or in a preheated 350oF oven for 3 to 4 hours until
  the meat is fork tender.  If needed, add more marinade during the
  cooking time to keep at least 1/2 inch liquid in the Dutch oven.
  Remove the meat and keep warm until ready to slice. Into a large
  measuring cup, strain the drippings.  Add several ice cubes and let
  stand for a few minutes until 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 minutes over medium
  heat until gravy has thickened. Taste for seasonings and adjust if
  necessary.  This makes about 3 cups of gravy. From: "International
  Cooking with Coca-Cola", a give away pamphlet from The Coca-Cola
  Company, 1981.
