One of these locked in a mill or a drill press (if you can fit it the shank in the chuck) as mentioned above low speed 300-500 rpm and a bunch of lube.

Keep the infeed pressure on the bit anytime it is touching the stainless so it is cutting.
If you run the bit over the stainless surface without enough pressure to cut it work hardens the stainless and it becomes a real chore to complete the cut.
Sharp bit, low speed, continuous pressure, keep it cooled.
