Coffee-Onion Jam Recipe

Strange as it sounds, brewed coffee is a great steeping liquid for a savory sliced onion topping that's perfect with grilled steaks and roasted meats. Prep takes just 10 minutes and the mixture can simmer on the stovetop while you prepare the meat.

Pork Tenderloin with Costa Rican Coffee Glaze Recipe

Brewed coffee, ground coffee and spices make a rich glaze that's brushed on pork tenderloin as it grills. The end result: deep, rich flavor without the muss and fuss of marinating. Try substituting chicken legs or thighs for the pork.
