Butter, salt
and pepper the inside and place without the lid in an
oven preheated to 350F

sure to use a long ladle to empty the liquid that will
accumulate on the inside of the pumpkin, otherwise it
may collapse.

Now
add the sirloin and onions and all other ingredients and
bake for about another hour adding just enough water to
keep moist
Salt and pepper to taste

pumpkin and be sure to spoon out the cooked walls of
the pumpkin when serving.
