Beef Silverside Joint

Silverside is a premium, slow-roasting joint of organic beef. Taken from the hindquarter and hung for a minimum of 28 days, this is a well-matured and flavoursome piece of beef.

Keep it classic and rub with olive oil, your choice of herbs, and seasonings before roasting, or even home cure and create your very own salt beef.

How To Store

Our Beef silver side joint is delivered fresh in an insulated box. They are butchered fresh to order and will arrive with a 9-day shelf life (including the day of delivery). We recommend for these to be stored below 4 degrees or alternatively, you can pop them in the freezer for up to 6 months. 

Our Farms & Suppliers

We source our organic beef from our exclusive network of local Devon organic farms. The cows spend their days grazing freely on a wide variety of native grasses, wildflowers, and herbs, roaming the fields and resting under the trees. In the winter, they are given homegrown, organic silage and hay to munch throughout the day. We support traditional British cattle breeds that benefit from natural, slow-growing lives and produce beautifully marbled beef. Our beef is then hung for at least 21 days to mature the flavour for tender, flavourful meat. This creates an exceptional flavour and soft texture that is second to none. From our own cured pastrami to slow-roasting joints, we are immensely proud of our organic, pasture-fed beef.

How To Cook 

We Recommend: 

Ingredients:

• 1kg or 2kg silverside beef joint
• 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary or thyme (or 2 teaspoons dried)
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 1 large onion, roughly chopped
• 2-3 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
• 2-3 parsnips, peeled and cut into chunks
• 200ml beef stock (optional, for roasting)

Instructions:

1. Preparation:

   • Remove the silverside joint from the fridge about 30 minutes before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature. This helps with even cooking.

2. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 220°C (200°C fan) or 425°F.

3. Season the Joint:

   • Pat the silverside joint dry with kitchen paper. Rub all over with olive oil or vegetable oil.
   • Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Rub the minced garlic and fresh herbs (rosemary or thyme) all over the joint.

4. Roasting:

   • Place the joint on a rack in a roasting tin. Arrange the chopped onion, carrots, and parsnips around the joint.
   • Roast in the preheated oven for:
     • 1kg joint: 20 minutes at 220°C (200°C fan) or 425°F, then reduce the temperature to 180°C (160°C fan) or 350°F and roast for an additional 40-50 minutes for medium-rare. Adjust time for your preferred level of doneness.
     • 2kg joint: 20 minutes at 220°C (200°C fan) or 425°F, then reduce the temperature to 180°C (160°C fan) or 350°F and roast for an additional 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes for medium-rare. Adjust time for your preferred level of doneness.
   • Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness: 50-52°C (120-125°F) for rare, 55°C (130°F) for medium-rare, and 60°C (140°F) for medium.

5. Resting:

   • Remove the joint from the oven and transfer it to a cutting board. Cover loosely with foil and let it rest for 15-20 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and makes carving easier.

6. Gravy (Optional):

   • While the joint is resting, you can make gravy from the pan drippings. Place the roasting tin on the hob over medium heat. Add a splash of beef stock and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the tin. Simmer until reduced slightly, then strain if desired.

7. Serve:

   • Slice the beef against the grain and serve with the roasted vegetables and any accompaniments of your choice.

8. Accompaniments:

   • Silverside roast pairs well with traditional sides such as roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, and green vegetables like broccoli or peas.
