Hunk of Meat Monday: Coffee Beef Roast

It is no secret that I have a freezer full of beef thanks to the steady supply of beef from my brother's farm. You may notice I have been posting a lot of recipes with beef roasts. Well, it is winter so I can't grill, so we got eat up our beef roast.



I also might be addicted to coffee. Really strong coffee preferably. So, I mixed the two.

Start by browning a thawed roast in a pan with two tablespoons of oil. (Yes, you other freezer beef gals, get the roast out the night before.) I sprinkled both sides with salt, pepper and some sprinkles of Worcestershire sauce.

Put it in the crock pot on low. Toss mushroom, green onions, and two garlic cloves in the skillet. I used some Tastefully Simple Garlic Garlic since I actually had all my garlic go bad:(

When the mushrooms are browned, pour 1 1/2 cups of coffee in the pan. I also added 3 shakes of Tobasco and 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce.

Pour this whole mixture over your roast in the crock pot.

Cook on low for 8-9 hours.

Come home to goodness. So, in the mean time if you are a working mom like me, if your husband is home before you, have him cut up some potatoes (peels on) and start them boiling. Also tell him fry up some bacon to crumble for the potatoes. Yes, he made the PW's restaurant style potatoes. See, they can be trained!!

I mixed together 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and 1/2 cup water in a sauce pan. Then poured all the dripping from the crock pot, with mushrooms too. Reserve the roast on a cutting board or serving plate.

Once the gravy is warm, cut up your roast.

And dinner is served!
