This recipe was created for a Cinco De Mayo work potluck taco bar that was a big hit. The coffee in the recipe adds a hint of smokiness and assists with tenderizing the meat as it cooks. Serve with warm tortillas and your favorite toppings. For less heat, omit jalapenos.

Ingredients

  • 1 large yellow onion , sliced into thin rings
  • 1 boneless beef chuck roast , 3 pound
  • 2 cans chili-seasoned diced tomatoes , 14.5 ounce
  • 1 can beef broth , 14 ounce
  • 1 cup cold coffee
  • 1 can diced green chiles , 4 ounce
  • 2 jalapenos peppers , Optional
  • 4 cloves garlic , chopped
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
