Mushroom Stuffed Sirloin

3lb. sirloin steak in one piece
1 onion
9oz. brown mushrooms
1 tablespoon oil
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
6 rashers bacon

Trim any silverskin, fat or gristle from meat and discard. Cut a pocket down through the center of the meat to about 1.2″ from the edges.
Peel onion and chop finely. Clean mushrooms and slice finely. Heat oil in frying pan and sauté onions for 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, thyme, salt, pepper, honey and mustard. Cook, stirring often, until mushrooms wilt.
Fill pocket in meat with mushroom mixture. Remove rind from bacon and wrap rashers around meat to completely cover. Turn grill side burners on and preheat grill to medium high heat.
Place meat on hotplate in center of grill away from direct heat. Cook, covered, for 15 minutes each side for medium or longer if desired, turning once during cooking.
Remove from grill and rest for 15 minutes before carving. Serve cut into thick slices.
