Louisiana Roast Beef

1/4 c Onions, chopped very fine 3/4 ts Black pepper

1/4 c Celery, chopped very fine 3/4 ts Minced garlic

1/4 c Bell peppers, chopped fine 1/2 ts Dry mustard

2 tb Unsalted butter 1/2 ts Ground cayenne

1 ts Salt 4 lb Boneless sirloin roast

1 ts White pepper

In a small bowl combine the onions, celery, bell peppers, butter and seasonings, mix well. Place roast in a large roasing pan, fat side up. With a large knife make 6 to 12 deep slits in the meat (to form pockets) down to a depth of about 1/2 inch from the bottom; do not cut all the way through. Fill the pockets to their depths with the vegetable mixture, reserving about 1 tablespoon of the vegetables to rub over the top of the roast. Bake uncovered at 300F until a meat thermometer reads about 160F for medium doneness, about 3 hours. For rarer roast, cook until thermometer reads 140F. Serve immediately topped with some of the pan drippings if you like. From Paul Prudhomme's Louisiana Kitchen
