Beef Fondue

SERVES: 4

For a change from cheese fondue, try Beef Fondue. The skewered beef makes a great presentation. Beef Fondue will be a hearty and tasty addition to your next party.

What You'll Need

2 1/2 cups vegetable oil, divided
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 pounds beef top round, cut into 1-inch cubes

What to Do

In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup oil, the vinegar, salt, and pepper; mix well. Add the beef and toss to coat evenly; set aside.
Place the remaining 2 cups oil in a 2-quart fondue pot; heat on the stovetop over medium heat until the oil reaches 360 degree F. (hot but not smoking). Place the fondue pot over the heat source where it is being served. Using fondue forks or skewers, carefully place each beef cube in the hot oil for 15 to 20 seconds, or longer for desired
doneness.
Remove beef from the oil, let cool slightly, and enjoy.
