Plant Features

Beefmaster tomatoes are garden giants, renowned for their massive, meaty fruits that dominate any harvest. This hybrid variety yields bright red beefsteak tomatoes typically weighing 1 to 2 pounds, with smooth, firm skin that resists cracking—perfect for slicing into sandwiches, burgers, or fresh eating. The flesh is solid and juicy, delivering a mild, sweet tomato flavor with a rich, classic taste that’s ideal for hearty dishes.

Why grow Beefmaster? This indeterminate plant produces a prolific crop through the season, celebrated for its huge yields and disease resistance, including Fusarium Wilt, Verticillium Wilt, and Nematodes. Its vigorous growth and tolerance to splitting make it a top pick for gardeners aiming to impress with size and flavor, thriving until frost with proper support.

Grown naturally and pesticide-free, our Beefmaster starter plants arrive healthy and ready to flourish in your garden. Nurtured with care, they promise an abundant harvest of these prize-winning, delicious tomatoes.
