Coffee Roast

COFFEE ROAST An absolute favourite of meat-&-veggies only men. Fuss-free preparation, but it takes some thinking ahead for cooking time. Tender beef simmered in roasted coffee. Absolutely delicious.

Makes: 6 servings.

2 Tbsp butter 4 lb chuck roast 1 Tbsp butter salt (to taste) 1 lg onion, chopped 6 cups brewed coffee 2 cups canned mushrooms 3 Tbsp cornstarch

Melt 2 Tbsp of butter in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Add the roast and sear on all sides until well browned; set aside. In the same saucepan, melt the remaining butter, add salt & onions; saute for 5 min. Return the meat to the saucepan, pour in the coffee & mushrooms. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low & simmer for 5 hrs, turning meat over halfway through cooking time. To make gravy: Remove a cup of the coffee mixture from the saucepan; combine with the cornstarch, stirring until smooth; return to the simmering pan. Mix well, remove from heat and serve.
