Cut OverviewAbout This Cut

Topside is the Sunday roast classic. It is lean, slices clean, and carves into thin pink slices that make excellent cold-cut sandwiches the next day.

Tip: Pull at 55°C for medium-rare. A long rest under foil (20 minutes) is essential, the roast carries over and finishes evenly.
