Trim the fat from the mean; cut into bit-size cubes. Keep refrigerated until 20 minutes before cooking.  (Meat can be marinated, try this recipe for Sesame Soy Marinade for Beef Fondue)

Fill a metal fondue pot about 1/2 full with half oil and half butter (you can use oil only, if you prefer).  Heat the oil/butter on the stove until is about 360 degrees. If you are using the butter and oil combination then heat slowly until the butter bubbles and the mixture turns a golden color. 

Set the fondue pot on the stand over a moderately high direct heat and maintain the heat. 

To Serve:
Each guest spears a cube of beef with a fondue fork, holds in in the hot oil until cooked to the desired doneness usually 1 to 3 minutes. Dip in one of the sauces included on this page.

Sour Cream Mustard Sauce
1/2 pint sour cream
1/2 mayonnaise
1/4 cup prepared mustard
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
Dash of Hot Pepper Sauce, such as Tabasco

Combine all the ingredients, mix well and chill.
