Ingredients

Instructions

  • To start, heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt some cooking fat.
    2 tablespoon cooking fat
  • Brown the bison roast on all sides and set it aside.
    2 lb bison roast
  • In the same skillet, add green onions, mushrooms, and garlic, and cook for about 3 minutes.
    8 mushrooms, 3 green onions, 2 garlic cloves
  • Then, add coffee, chili powder, and season with sea salt and black pepper. Scrape off all the browned bits in the skillet and mix them into the sauce for added flavor. Bring to a boil and pour the sauce into your crockpot.
    1 ½ cups strong coffee, ½ teaspoon chili powder, Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Add the browned bison roast to the crockpot and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours until the meat is fork-tender.

Notes

  • Bison should be cooked to a minimum of 145°F internally for safety.  However, for a fork-tender roast, as you want with this recipe, you will be cooking to 160 °F or higher.
  • If you do not have a full 8 hours to cook the roast, you can cook on high heat setting for 4 to 5 hours instead.  A slow longer cook time will keep the meat moist and tender, but you can get similar results with a higher cooking heat and shorter time.
