  • 1 boneless pork shoulder butt roast (3 to 3-1/2 pounds)
  • 1/3 cup ground coffee beans
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 2 celery ribs, chopped
  • 1 large carrot, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1-1/2 cups strong brewed coffee

  • 1 teaspoon whole peppercorns, crushed
  • 1 cinnamon stick (3 inches)

 Directions

Cut roast into thirds. Combine the ground coffee, salt and pepper; rub over roast. In a large skillet, brown meat in oil on all sides; drain.

Transfer meat to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Add the celery, carrot, onion, chicken stock, brewed coffee, parsley, coriander seeds, cumin, peppercorns, cinnamon stick and bay leaf; pour over roast.
