Our 100% Grass fed beef Topside is one of the most popular roasting joints, known for its fine grain, and lean nature, with a wonderfully tender bite when cooked correctly. Compared to Silverside, topside typically has more intramuscular fat, lending it greater succulence and a softer texture, making it a go-to for those seeking a classic beef roast with a rich depth of flavour.
 
For a traditional Roast Topside Beef, season generously with salt, pepper, and herbs, then roast at 200°C for around 20-25 minutes per 500g for medium. Resting the meat for 15-20 minutes under foil afterward is key to locking in moisture so each slice remains juicy and tender.
 
This cut is also ideal for beef topside in a slow cooker, especially if you prefer a fall-apart texture. Brown the joint on all sides before transferring it to the slow cooker with stock, onions, carrots, and your favourite herbs. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, and the connective tissue will gradually break down, resulting in melt-in-the-mouth beef.
 
Topside’s moderate fat layer, along with its finer grain, allows for tender, flavourful slices straight out of the oven or slow cooker. Leftovers also make fantastic sandwiches or can be added to salads for a protein boost. As with all our 100% grass-fed beef, this joint develops its natural, full-bodied taste from a pasture-based diet and a slower growing process, ensuring superior quality in every bite.
