  1. Hi, I have several pieces of silverside I received when I bought a side of beef for the first time. I believe they are still in their raw state.
    Is this the method you would use to corn a piece of raw silverside that had not yet been corned or is this how you cook it once it has already been corned?

    I would never have dreamt that I would ever cook silverside, everyone else in the family cooked it but I had a fear of ruining it so never tried. That is until I saw this easy slow cooker recipe and it’s magnificent! The meat is melt in the mouth, so tasty and did I say it was easy? Thank you, I will be doing this again and again and again!

  3. First time cooking silverside in the slow cooker and it came out beautiful! Super soft and wonderful flavors 🙂

  4. Expecting big gang on Friday (10 adults, 8 kids), so I’m wondering if I can throw a silverside in my 6,5 litre sc? Also wondering how much meat should I buy and if it’s going to work if I put it on 2 layers actually as one layer will not suffice. Do you have any ideas? Thank you

  5. Sorry for confusion, I meant 2 pieces of meat to put one on top of the other, thus forming 2 layers. That will perhaps fill in the whole sc with meat, not sure if it will cook properly that way, when there’s so much meat…

  6. Mann yum. I do mine very similar to this. I don’t have garlic or peppercorns. I add 1 cup of brown vinegar, 2 tbsp of brown sugar, 1 onion, 4 bayleaves, 6 cloves, water and silver side.

  7. This is one of my kids fave “red meat with white sauce”!
    It’s so easy and so delicious!!
    One of our family go to Sunday meals 🙂

  8. I am going to try this today but I have only have one Kilogram so not sure how long to cook it, I assume on low for 4 hrs

  9. I add sliced carrots celery + leaves onion shallots leek Handful Corrandiar & basil white vinegar cloves pepper corn & brown sugar & cover with just enough water & cook on slow up to 8hrs or so on low I wash mine 1st with warm running water before placing in the s/c I serve ours with horseradish sauce mash & Streamed veggies

  10. Very good indeed, everyone enjoyed the flavour and nothing left on plates.. Great meal, will have this one again for sure.

  11. Great feed again, last time I never added the cloves, this time I did and it was delicious.. recommended for sure.

  12. Hi Pauline …. I am cooking a silverside for tea with this recipe but only a small one – 1kg. How long would I have to cook it for?
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.
    Love your website.
    Cheers, Lynden

    I put my silverside on an onion bed, added the 2 cups of hot water, 4 cloves and about 1/4 cup of brown vinegar as that was all I had. I spent the rest of the day drooling over the smell. ???
    9 hours later I had perfect “melt in your mouth” silverside.
    Thanks Pauline for a beautiful, easy recipe.

    Silverside as I remember it from my (long time ago) childhood. I also added one cup of malt vinegar and one tablespoon of minced ginger.
