Slow Cooking Topside Beef
slow cooking topside beef
I have a 2.482 kg of Topside of Beef,i want to cook it in the slow cooker,how long should it be on for?
Someone told me to brown the beef 1st to seal it then put it in the slow cooker with a cup of water and cook it on low for 9-10 hours, is this right?i dont want it dry!!! i do like it medium to well done, any suggestions?
Yes, you should sear the meat first, in oil in a skillet on all sides. I would go with 8 hours on low for medium well. Do you have a meat thermometer? That’s the best way to test for doneness. As for the water, I wouldn’t put more than a cup in. I would put in some fresh herbs, too and a couple of peeled, quartered onions for flavor.
In this day and age, most of us are searching for ways to simplify our lives, including making mealtimes easier to deal with and enjoyable for all in the family. It’s gotten to the point where many people have turned to frozen foodstuffs in order to save time and energy! I don’t know about you, but for me the mere thought of keeping a stock of frozen items, checking to see which ones are still fit to be used, all while planning 3 square meals is disturbing! As an alternative, I think crock pot cooking is a fabulous idea.... Click here to read the rest of the article: The Joys of Cooking!
