About Beef topside
Beef topside is a lean cut from the upper inner part of the hindquarter, generally within the round. It is used for roasting, braising, or slicing for other preparations, and may also be cured or cooked as a processed joint. The exact boundaries and naming vary by regional butchery.
Raw topside is a compact, deep-red muscle with little marbling and a relatively firm texture. A silvery connective-tissue membrane may cover part of the surface. It is often sold as a boneless joint or cut into steaks, but the fresh cut should be distinguished from cooked or cured products bearing a similar name.
