Day-old coffee is the key to this flavorful beef roast that simmers in the slow cooker until it's fall-apart tender. Try it once and I'm sure you'll cook it again. —Charles Trahan of San Dimas, California

This is absolutely wonderful! Excellent flavor! Easy to prepare and the leftovers, if there are any, make a fantastic stew. When we want to splurge, we use croissants to make sandwiches from the leftovers!

I also added a cup of beef broth and used a shoulder roast because that was what I had. My husband absolutely loved it!
