Thanks for posting this. I really wanted to try this but was worried that if
would taste like coffee.

Subject: Re: [CnD] Steak with Coffee and Onions
I tried this recipe and it's a keeper. First thing to note is that no
coffee flavor was in the steak or the onion. The juice that was left
over was sweet from the onion. The steaks were very tender and it was
possible to eat all of them. Next time I make this, I'll put barbecue
sauce on the steak when it comes from the crockpot and I think I will
use mushrooms now that I have a base line for comparison. The
tenderness of the chuck steak was to the point that I had no need of a
knife to cut any of it up. Finally, the cook time was 8 hours. I don't
think cooking much longer than that is a good idea.

I should know by later on this evening if this recipe is a keeper. I'm
only using one onion but it's a very large onion so could qualify as two.
What has me curious about this recipe and I may check this out later if I
make this recipe again is how mushrooms would go in this recipe.
Mushrooms have their own acid but what the taste combination would be in
this kind of recipe with mushrooms added I don't yet know. In any case,
I
put the onion halved into a reynolds cooking bag after that bag was put
into the 4 quart crockpot and put two chuck steaks on top of the onions.
I ended up laying the steaks so they cross each other and folding the
meat
down around the onions then I poured two cups of brewed coffee into the
crockpot and put it on low at 12:18P.M. On Thu, 18 Oct 2012, Shannon
