It is the coffee that adds the unique twist to this favorite supper dish.
Coffee is a staple in most Amish homes, so why not use it to flavor a roast? Â Leftover coffee is often used to flavor cakes, doughnuts, and even ice cream. Â Marinating meat in coffee would seem to add a certain richness to the flavor.
Yum! Â This recipe was shared with us by an Amish woman in Holmes County, Ohio.

sounds reasonable since coffee adds that really great extra flavor to meatballs.
