Coffee Roast
Ingredients:
– 3 lb beef roast (such as chuck or round)
– 1 tbsp olive oil
– 2 onions, sliced
– 4 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 cup brewed coffee (strong)
– 1 cup beef broth
– 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
– 1 tsp dried thyme
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
2. Season the beef roast generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
3. In a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef roast on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the roast from the pot and set it aside.
4. In the same pot, add the sliced onions and minced garlic. Cook until the onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
5. Pour in the brewed coffee, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and dried thyme. Stir well to combine and let the mixture come to a simmer.
6. Once the liquid is simmering, return the beef roast to the pot, nestling it among the onions and liquid.
7. Cover the pot with a lid and transfer it to the preheated oven. Let the roast cook for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef is tender and pulls apart easily with a fork.
8. Check the roast halfway through cooking and add more beef broth if needed to keep the liquid level consistent.
9. Once the roast is done, remove it from the oven. Allow it to rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
10. Serve the Coffee Roast slices with the onions and sauce from the pot spooned over the top. Pair it with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables.
