Corned beef Vs. Silverside – What’s the Difference?
While it can be confusing, “corned beef” and “corned silverside” are often used interchangeably, especially in countries like Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, and South Africa.
However, there are some subtle differences worth knowing:
Alright, let’s talk about corned beef silverside and how to choose the best cut for your next meal!
Corned beef:
Cut:
Traditionally made from brisket, a fatty and well-marbled cut of meat from the chest of the cow.
Fattiness:
Has more fat than silverside, which contributes to a richer, juicier taste and texture.
Availability:
Widely available in most areas, often pre-corned.
Corned silverside:
Cut:
Made from silverside, a leaner cut of meat from the hindquarter, just above the leg.
Fattiness:
Less marbled fat than brisket, resulting in a drier texture but still flavourful.
Availability:
More common in regions like Australia and New Zealand.
May need to be purchased un-corned and brined at home.
Cooking:
Both require long, slow cooking methods like boiling or simmering to tenderize the meat.
Silverside might benefit from slightly shorter cooking times due to its leaner nature.

Ultimately, the choice between corned beef and corned silverside comes down to personal preference and availability.
If you prefer a juicy, fatty cut, go for corned beef. If you’re looking for a leaner option, corned silverside is a good choice.
