Looking for a comforting winter dinner the whole family can enjoy? IGA Corned Silverside is an Aussie favourite to cook up at home!

When the weather cools down, families tend to crave something warming and hearty, and IGA Corned Silverside is just the thing. Ready to cook, it is cured in a traditional brine that helps keep the meat deliciously moist while creating the distinctive flavour and pink colour silverside is known for.

Corned Silverside is a trusted winter go-to because it doesn’t require a lot of fuss. Just pop it on the stove and let it simmer away low and slow. The result is tender, tasty beef, ready to slice and serve piping hot with your favourite sides. Better yet, any leftovers are perfect for sandwiches, wraps and toasties the next day.

Affordable, easy to prepare and packed with good old-fashioned comfort, it’s easy to see why silverside remains a favourite in so many Australian homes.


 

Reviewers are currently put IGA Corned Silverside to the test at home. Selected applicants have received a $20 IGA voucher to pick up a fresh (raw) silverside at their local IGA. After cooking it up, they’ll come back and share their rating and review.

  • Family favourite

    I love how simple & easy silverside is to cook. This meat was beautiful. There was no fat on it. It was a great cut of meat! The flavour was mouth watering. I will definitely be purchasing meat from iga in the future. I highly encourage others to get down to their local iga !

  • Throughly enjoyed it

    I loved it. I remember eating this as a kid, my mum would boil it. I decided to try something different and cooked it in the slow cooker. It was moist and delicious even my husband and son (10) loved it and asked for more (and they’ve tried my mum’s before and didn’t like it). Value for money as we had quite a bit leftover and had more for dinner the next night and 2 lunches out of it. Will differently be buying again.

  • A family favourite!

    This was absolutely beautiful!

    Once I purchased the silverside from IGA I cooked it the following day. I put it in the slow cooker in the morning on low all day with onions and garlic cloves. It smelt amazing in the house as it cooked. When we had it for dinner it was so tender and perfectly cooked, I served it with mashed potatoes, cheesy vegetables and a nice white sauce. It was an absolute favourite and the kids loved it too!!

  • Excellent winter meal for a budget friendly price.

    With hungry boys to feed, i amalgams looking for a hearty, protein rich meal to cook that doesn't cost the earth. Silverside on sale to the rescue! Lovely and tender, easy to cook and great on lunchtime sandwiches the next day. Plenty to choose from in store.

  • Easy peasy winter corned beef from IGA.

    One of the best warmer meals, or just general family dinners, is a slow cooked corned beef (silverside).

    I recently picked up a nice slice of corned beef from my local IGA and prepared at home, which was a family favourite (even for my very picky toddler and 4 year old). IGA had such a large selection to choose from, and it is super simple to grab on the go and then prepare at home for a budget friendly and flavoursome dinner!

    The recipe is simple:

    1x corned beef (approx 1.2-1.8kg)

    1 cup of brown vinegar

    1 cup of brown sugar

    2-4 bay leaves

    6 black peppercorns

    2-4 diced carrots

    1 quartered large onion.

    Mix all the ingredients together in your pot and then fill with water to above the top of the beef. I use a slow cooker and cook for a minimum of 6 hours (you can also stove top cook on medium heat for 5-6 hours).

    Once cooked, simply remove and drain from the pot (you can also use the pickled carrot and onion as a side) and accompany with your choice of sauce. Cheese sauce is the best option!

    Super simple and yummy dinner sorted. Flavoursome and a hearty meal for the whole family to enjoy!

  • Delicious and so easy!

    I’ve waited to cook this until I was visiting my grandkids to get a 3 generational opinion. The kids lapped it up, which is quite a high rating. It’s difficult to get them to consume enough protein. We adults all enjoyed it. Cooked in a slow cooker with vegetables. It was a little tough in parts but the flavour was great. I recall silverside has always been a little tough, going all the way back to my childhood. It was a very economical meal. When I purchased it, it was on special for $10/kg. It will feed all of us at least twice.

    4 stars for me!

  • Nice winter warmer meal

    We were lucky to try out the corned beef from IGA. It was $10 kg on special at the time so great value for money.

    We haven’t bought or cooked this ourselves before so we looked up online how to and tried the boiling method. I think next time we might try the slow cooker and see how that goes instead.

    When we dished it up, it was nice and salty and had a good flavor. Although some bits were a bit fatty and we had to cut them off. The next few bits we tried were tender and tasty.

    I made a simple mustard sauce to go with it which paired well. Such a great easy meal for the winter months which warms you up and keeps you full.

  • Really good value

    We have brought a lot of cornbeef from other supermarkets and the one we purchased from IGA would be almost one of the best we have had. The flavour and size was brilliant for the price we paid. We will definitely be buying from IGA again. This easily feed a family of 4 with leftovers

  • Simple and easy dinner

    As a busy single mum of 4, I like to shortcut as much as possible. I put my silverside in the slow cooker with ginger ale, and cooked for approx 6 hours. It was perfectly cooked, nice pink colour and sliced beautifully. I served it in brioche hot dog rolls with a fresh kaleslaw salad & dressing. Quick, easy and satisfying! Great silverside, thanks Mouths of Mums :)

  • Memories of a childhood favourite

    Loved that the timing of this review lined up with the product being on special and the weather turning colder.

    Was able to get a piece large enough to easily feed 3 with plenty left over for cold cuts and corned beef hash.

    Made it the way I remembered having it growing up, including the essential mustard sauce.

    The piece I bought had been butchered a little bit, needed a tidy up and trim of cartilage and excess fat.

    Cooked it how I always have and got a good result like I expected; it may be common with corned beef now, but it lacked any intensity of flavour, like a watered-down version of how corned beef used to taste.

    Not terrible enough to not recommend or buy again, just made me aware of how much flavour I needed to add to supplement it.

    Great buy for budget conscious shoppers, recreating a loved classic or trying something new.

  • Easy weekday dinner

    Thai corned silveeside was such an easy meal to cook in the middle of the week. The meat was amazing not fatty at all but unfortunately it was way too salty and this kind of made it really hard to eat. Not sure we would buy this again from IGA.

  • Was very tasty

    This IGA corned silverside has a great flavour, good texture, and is excellent value for money. It’s just as good as, if not better than, some of the more expensive brands I’ve tried. I’ll definitely be buying it again. I unfortunately didn’t manage to get a photo of the cooked meat as my family dug into it way too quickly, but can guarantee that it was absolutely worth the money!

  • Just delicious silverside

    I bought a beautiful large 1.6 kilo piece of corned silverside from my local IGA at Baringa Qld. It was on special at $16.28. Slow cooked it with the only other ingredient from IGA being ginger ale (easy peasy). Complimented with steamed veges and corn, it was so comforting on a winter’s night, absolutely delicious.

  • Great Winter Meal for the Whole Family

    IGA’s Raw Silverside has a great taste and texture, firm but not chewy. I cooked mine in a pressure cooker and served it with mashed potato, peas and white sauce, the family loved it.

    It is great value for money which means it doesn’t have to be served as a one off luxury meal this Winter.

    I bought a 1.5kg piece which was enough for dinner and leftovers over for a second meal. Any thoughts I had of serving it again the next night were dashed by lunchtime the following day when there were multiple requests for silverside and pickle sandwiches.

  • Flavourful and a nice nourishing meal

    This silverside was well priced and flavourful. I did however, find the piece I purchased to have a far bit of gristle making it slightly tough. Despite this, it was still enjoyable and had a much nicer flavour than other varieties I have tried. A nice winter meal for the whole family, simply place in a slow cooker on low and set and forget. Great for leftovers too, very much enjoyed cold on sandwiches the next day.

  • If you haven’t already signed up for Purkle, what are you waiting for?? Do it!! It’s so easy to do, and it is really rewarding. I regularly get surveys, almost daily, and it takes no time at all to gain enough to cash out a gift card. It’s been great for splurging.

  • I have been a Purkle member for 10 years now. At the moment I have over $100 I am able to convert. Surveys can take any where from 3 minutes to 30 minutes and vary in amount you earn. It’s a great way to earn some money when you have free time. I am pretty slack at opening the emails so if I was more attentive I could have earnt a lot more.

  • Love purkle! Currently earning my way up to a big gift card for my kids birthday 🎂

    Reply

  • I have been a Purkle member for approximately 10 years. I have redeemed hundreds of dollars over that time. Once you join, you receive survey invitations via email. I probably receive one invite per week. Some surveys are 5 minutes, others 30 minutes, some hours which enable you to log in and log out to complete. Incentives vary. It does take a while to add up but if you leave the incentives untouched, they eventually add up over time. It’s my little Purple bank account I have in the background of everything else I do.

    Reply

  • I have been with Purkle for a bit but I actually haven’t seen their email a for a while. I probably should check my account online and check if my emails are going to spam as the emails are what prompts me to go online and complete the available surveys.

  • I have been with purkle for a long time on average cash in about 300 a year, it’s very easy to convert money to useable vouchers. I find it easier to just fill in whilst watching tv or something. Sometimes there are gaps with surveys but tend to save them till end of year anyway

  • I actually signed up to Purkle a few years ago and didn’t really make much money then! Its a good article though, and thanks for the reminder to log back in and do some surveys! Both my kids are at school now, so I do have some more spare time to fill!

  • I have joined purkle years ago and did make a fair bit of money back then when on mat leave doing a fair few surveys. But it has been years since I have used it so this article was a good reminder to get back on it and earn some additional money!

  • Yep I’ve been a member of purkle for years but don’t get much these days on it to be honest compared to what I used to het

  • Thank you for sharing this. I hadn’t hear of Purkle! Being a single mum and only working part time means every extra dollar is handy. I enjoy doing surveys and reviews in my downtime anyway, so I might as well earn while doing it! I’ve just joined, so hopefully it will be a good experience.

  • Tried it before and it’s definitely one of the better companies to do surveys with. They make it so easy, the website is easy to navigate and the surveys are generally not too long. It’s easy to do whilst on the couch or filling in time! Definitely worth checking out to earn some extra cash.

  • Purkle is fun! Not a lot to earn from but if you like filling up surveys or voicing ypir opinions, it is definitely worth a try. Sometimes there are survey on music which are the most fun ones and also, these are the ones that reward the most. Not bad to earn a gift card or 2 in a year!

  • I love Purkle. While the surveys don’t award massive sums, the surveys themselves are never long. Other platforms want a minimum of 10 minutes which can be hard to commit to during day time chaos. It doesn’t take long to accumulate a decent sum, and I use gift cards as a way to treat myself. They can be redeemed for grocery gift cards. I’ve cashed out over $200 in a year and a half. Give it a go!

  • I’ve been with Purkle for a few years now. One of my favourite survey and money earning platforms. Easy to build up a balance and redeem your earnings. Love sitting down and completing my purkle surveys, to see balance grow. I use this to treat myself or put towards presents for Christmas
