                                                1 (2- to 3-pound) boneless chuck roast  |  
                                                1/4 teaspoon pepper  |  
                                                1/4 cup all-purpose flour  |  
                                                1/4 cup bacon drippings  |  
                                                1 large onion, sliced and separated into rings  |  
                                                1 1/2 cups beef broth  |  
                                                1/2 cup coffee  |  
                                                3 carrots, scraped and cut into 2-inch pieces  |  
                                                2 large potatoes, peeled and quartered  |  
                                                1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided  |  
                                                2 cups water  |  
                                                1/4 cup all-purpose flour  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. Sprinkle roast with pepper; dredge in 1/4 cup flour. Brown roast on all sides in hot bacon drippings in a large Dutch oven. Place onion rings over roast; add beef broth and coffee. Cover and simmer 1 1/2 hours or until meat is tender. 2. Add carrots, potatoes, and 1 teaspoon salt. Cover and simmer an additional 30 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Remove roast and vegetables to a serving dish, reserving cooking liquid in Dutch oven. 3. Combine 2 cups water, 1/4 cup flour, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt; blend until smooth. Stir flour mixture into reserved cooking liquid. Cook, stirring constantly using a wire whisk, until smooth and thickened. Serve gravy with roast and vegetables.                              |
