Description
Our native breed beef is carefully hand selected at Market for us by our buyer who we work closely with. We look for size and for a good covering of fat for flavour. Our prime cuts are matured on the bone for at least three weeks; the result is a meat that will melt in your mouth with a kind of flavour you just don’t get from wet aged beef. Each cut is prepared by our specialist butchers, ensuring care and quality in every cut.
Despite a reputation as a middle of the road joint, Topside has a depth of flavour which makes it by far the most popular of our beef joints. We tie a slice of fat onto each joint because the Topside is a very lean joint. This aids with the cooking and adds to the flavour further.
