About Tomato Seeds - Big Beef

Lycopersicon esculentum

Big Beef Tomato is a robust, round tomato with a tangy-sweet taste that harkens back to the old-fashioned tomato flavors. It boasts a generous size, making it ideal for slicing. Big Beef is renowned for being a hassle-free cultivar, perfect for beginners, and delivers a rich taste that complements tomato sandwiches, burgers, and various fresh dishes. This indeterminate variety can grow to impressive proportions, necessitating a tall tomato cage for support. Big Beef tomatoes reach maturity during the mid to late stages of the tomato season, typically around 75 days after transplanting the seedlings outdoors.
