Kills fish and meat (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

topside

'meat' is the definition.
(cut of beef)

'kills fish' is the wordplay.
'kills' becomes 'tops'.
'fish' becomes 'ide' (I've seen this before).
'tops'+'ide'='TOPSIDE'

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for topside that I've seen before include "Lean cut of beef, no bone" , "Joint" , "Towards ship's upper decks; part of cut of beef" , "Dish" , "Outer cut of beef" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
