Corner-Cut Topside of Beef

£22.99

1kg, Serves 4 - 5

Give your Christmas table something a little different with Thorner’s Corner-Cut Topside of Beef. Weighing 1kg and serving around 4 – 5 people, this lean, neatly shaped joint is perfect for a smaller Christmas Day, a festive alternative to turkey, or a showstopping roast for family gatherings over the holidays.

Cut from the corner of the topside, this joint is prized for its tender texture and rich, beefy flavour, while its compact shape helps it cook evenly and carve into neat slices at the table. Thorner’s prepares each joint with care, so it’s ready to season and roast just the way you like it, whether pink in the middle or cooked through. Serve with Yorkshire puddings, crispy roast potatoes, pigs in blankets and lashings of gravy, then enjoy any leftovers in Boxing Day sandwiches with a dollop of horseradish.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

To roast, preheat your oven to 220°C / 200°C fan / Gas 7 and cook the joint at this high heat for the first 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 190°C / 170°C fan / Gas 5 for the remainder of the cooking time. For rare beef, allow 20 minutes per 450g (1lb) plus 15 minutes; for medium, 25 minutes per 450g (1lb) plus 20 minutes; and for well done, 30 minutes per 450g (1lb) plus 25 minutes. Baste the joint regularly during cooking, and if some guests prefer their beef well done, carve their slices from the outside of the joint. Once cooked, rest the meat out of the oven for at least 15 minutes before serving. For salt beef, allow 225g (8oz) per person, so a 2kg (4.5lb) joint serves 6 to 8 people. Place the joint in a large pan, cover with water and bring to the boil, skimming off any impurities, then simmer gently for 3 to 4 hours until tender.
