Grass Fed Dry-Aged Topside of Beef | A British Roasting Classic

A true staple of the British table, our Grass-Fed Topside of Beef is the perfect choice for a traditional Sunday roast. Grass fed beef, dry-aged on the bone for maximum flavour — this joint boasts natural tenderness and a rich, beefy character that makes every slice memorable. Our skilled butchers encase the joint in a thin layer of grass-fed beef fat before tying, allowing it to baste itself beautifully during cooking for a juicy, succulent result.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is topside of beef?

Topside is a lean, boneless roasting joint taken from the inner thigh of the animal. It's one of the most popular roasting joints in Britain — lean and affordable with a clean, beefy flavour. Our butchers wrap it in a layer of grass-fed beef fat and tie it before sending, which bastes the joint as it roasts and compensates for its naturally lean profile.

How many does it serve?

As a guide: a 1.5kg joint serves 4, a 2kg joint serves 5-6, a 2.5kg joint serves 6-8. Because it's boneless there's no waste — every gram is eating meat. Topside slices neatly and is excellent cold the next day.

How do I cook a grass fed topside?

Bring to room temperature for 1 hour. Season generously with sea salt. Roast at 220°C for 20 minutes to develop a crust, then reduce to 160°C for approximately 12-15 minutes per 500g for medium-rare. Rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. Use a meat thermometer: 52-55°C internal for medium-rare. Topside can dry out if overcooked — don't go past medium.

How does topside differ from rib of beef?

Topside is leaner, more affordable and has a cleaner, more traditional roast beef flavour. Rib of beef has significantly more marbling and a richer, more intense flavour — it's a more indulgent cut. Topside is the Sunday roast classic; rib of beef is the special occasion choice.
