Ingredients
  

  • 3 pounds chuck roast
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Fresh ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup prepared coffee
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 large white onion halved and thinly sliced
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons cold water
  • Fresh chopped parsley to garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chuck roast on all sides until browned.
  • Season the roast with garlic powder, dried oregano, and black pepper.
  • Place the roast in a slow cooker, add sliced onions and bay leaves.
  • Pour coffee, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce over the roast and onions.
  • Cook on LOW for 9 hours, keeping the lid on to retain moisture.
