~Sprinkle roast w/ 1/2 tsp. salt & pepper. Set aside.
Combine carrots, onions, garlic and jalapenos in crock pot and place roast on top.
In med. bowl combine coffee, seasoning mix, balsamic vinegar, bouillon & bay leaf. Pour over roast in crock pot. Cover and cook on low 9 - 10 hrs.
Transfer roast to cutting board & let sit 10 min. Remove veggies w/ slotted spoon & place on serving dishes. Cut up meat & add to dishes. Remove 2 C sauce & add sour cream. Whisk together & spoon on beef.
