DukesHill British Ex Dairy Topside Roasting Joint

6 – 8 Servings per joint

Our succulent 1.7kg Topside Roasting Joint comes from the topside of the leg and is butchered, trimmed and rolled by hand. We use British ex-dairy beef, working closely with our farmers to source cattle that have spent four to five years producing milk before joining our beef programme, typically reaching 60-72 months old by the time they come to us. Every carcase is hand-selected by our butchers for finished quality, judged on both fat coverage and muscle conformation, so only the best makes it onto our block. The result is a lean, close-grained joint with a deep, well-rounded flavour that only comes with age, and a tender texture that carves beautifully thin once rested.

Choosing ex-dairy beef is also a more considered choice. These are cattle that have already lived long, well cared-for lives on pasture-based dairy farms – first producing milk for four to five years, then reared mostly on grass (with some grain finishing) before coming to us.

Rather than rearing cattle from birth purely for beef, we make full use of the whole life of the animal, meaning less waste and a genuinely more sustainable way to enjoy beef this Christmas. We work closely with the farmers we source from to make sure every animal is well cared for throughout, from dairy production right through to finishing.
For best results, roast low and slow and allow to rest well before carving thinly against the grain.

It's the perfect centrepiece for your Christmas dinner table, delivering rich, honest flavour and real quality with every slice.
