I have this same Chromecast and it can handle a 4K UHD 58,356 kbps bitrate movie, and others around the 35,000 range like you were talking about.
Are you using Tailscale on your Chromecast by chance? When I used it and connected to the Tailscale IP, I got stuttering in that kind of content. However, when I just connected to my server's local IP, it streamed without issue.
Have you ever checked your internet speed? If not, you can go to an internet browser app and go to fast.com.
