Topside

Topside Beef

Tender, Locally Sourced, and Versatile

Our topside beef is sourced from British farms committed to quality and sustainability, ensuring you enjoy the finest, most flavourful beef available.

How It Is Made

Our topside comes from grass-fed cattle raised on open pastures, where they graze naturally and sustainably. This natural rearing process not only prioritizes animal welfare but also enhances the flavour and texture of the meat. Each cut of topside is carefully prepared and trimmed for optimal tenderness and rich, beefy flavour.

Where It Is Butchered From

Topside is cut from the hindquarter of the cow, specifically from the upper part of the hind leg. It is a lean and versatile cut with a fine grain, suitable for roasting, braising, or slicing thin for stir-fries.

Cooking Instructions

Enjoy the tender texture and rich flavour of our topside beef with these simple cooking methods:

• Roasting: Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan). Season the topside with salt, pepper, and your favourite herbs. Place in a roasting tin and cook for 20 minutes per 450g, plus an additional 20 minutes for medium-rare, or adjust the time according to your preferred doneness.
• Pot Roasting: Brown the topside in a hot pan with oil. Transfer to a pot with vegetables, herbs, and stock. Cover and cook on the stovetop or in the oven at a low temperature for 2-3 hours until tender.
• Slicing: Once cooked, slice thinly against the grain for the best texture and flavour.

Storage Instructions

To maintain the freshness and quality of your topside beef:

• Refrigerate: Store in the coldest part of your fridge at 1-4°C and consume within 2-3 days of purchase.
• Freeze: For longer storage, tightly wrap the topside in cling film or vacuum-sealed bags and freeze. Use within six months for best quality.
• Thawing: Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before cooking to preserve texture and flavour.
