Recipe: Boneless Chuck Roast with Bourbon and Coke

BONELESS CHUCK ROAST WITH BOURBON AND COKE

1 boneless chuck roast (2 to 2 1/2 pounds)
1 (12 ounce) can Coca-Cola (not diet - you need the sugar)
3 ounces good bourbon
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
teaspoon allspice berries
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Place chuck roast in 1-gallon zippered-top plastic bag.

Combine remaining ingredients in medium-size bowl, pour into bag, seal and let marinate in refrigerator 2 to 3 hours, turning bag once or twice.

WHEN READY TO COOK:
Preheat grill with all burners on high 10 minutes with lid down.

With all burners still on high, place chuck on grill, close lid and sear 5 minutes per side. After searing, turn all burners to medium. Close lid and cook roast another 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare, turning once midway through.

Remove steak to platter, loosely tent with aluminum foil, and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
