Recipe - Bacon Wrapped Sirloin Roast

2 One half pound Tip Sirloin Roast, Bone
Removed & Tied
3 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
One half teaspoon Thyme Leaves, Dried
6 sl Bacon
4 md Onions, Cut in Wedges
Cherry Tomatoes

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Cut a few slits in the top of the roast
to allow the bacon drippings to penetrate. Spread the mustard evenly over
the entire roast. Sprinkle the thyme leaves over the top of the roast.
Place the roast on a roasting rack in a baking pan. Cover tightly with
bacon slices, wrapping them around the meat. Bake until a meat thermometer
registers 160 degrees (medium rare) (about 105 minutes). Juices should run
slightly pink (medium rare). Add onions about 40 minutes before the roast
is done. Remove the roast to the carving board and let rest at least 15
minutes before slicing. Slice the meat into even slices. Serve with onions,
bacon slices and a gravy made from pan gravy. NOTE: The bacon gets crispy
when cooked with the roast. Garnish with cherry tomatoes.
