Ingredients
- 3 to 5 pound (1.4 to 2.3 kg) beef roast (round, chuck, or rump)
- 5 or 6 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) water
- 1 small onion
- 1 1/2 cups (360 ml) strong coffee
- 1 teaspoon guar or xanthan salt and pepper
Method
- At least 24 to 36 hours before you want to actually cook your roast, stick holes in the meat with a thin-bladed knife, cut the garlic cloves into slices, and insert a slice into each hole
- Put the garlic studded roast in a big bowl and pour the vinegar and the water over it
- Put it in the fridge and let it sit there for a day or so, turning it over when you think of it so the whole thing marinates
- On the morning of the day you want to serve the roast, drain off the marinade and put the roast in the slow cooker
- Thinly slice the onion and put it on top of the roast
- Pour the coffee over the roast and onion, put on the lid, set the cooker on low, and leave it alone for 8 hours for a smaller roast or up to 10 hours for a larger one
- When you’re ready to eat, remove the roast from the cooker carefully because it will now be so tender its likely to fall apart
- Scoop out 2 cups (480 ml) of the liquid and some of the onions and put them in the blender with the guar
- Blend for few seconds and then pour into a saucepan set over high heat
- Boil this sauce hard for about 5 minutes to reduce it a bit
- Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste
Makes If you use a 4-pound 1 8-kg, boneless roast, you’ll get 12 servings
- Each with 3 grams of carbohydrates, a trace of fiber, and 34 grams of protein
