Silverside of Beef: Guide and the Closest Joints We Stock

Quick answer: Silverside is a lean joint from the outside of the hindquarter, next to topside. It is best pot-roasted or used for salt beef. We don't sell silverside; topside is the nearest roasting joint we stock, and brisket or chuck suits a pot roast.

Frequently asked questions

Do you sell silverside?

No. Topside is the closest roasting joint we stock; brisket and chuck suit a pot roast.

Is silverside the same as topside?

No. They are neighbouring lean cuts; topside is slightly more tender and better for roasting.
