Beefsteak tomato is a large, meaty tomato with broad slices and juicy flesh. Mildly sweet with balanced acidity, its dense walls hold up to slicing for sandwiches and burgers, layered salads, and quick grilling or roasting; sold loose or on the vine, often slightly ribbed.
Large-fruited tomato types were selected after domestication in Mesoamerica and spread through Europe before global cultivation. Beefsteak-style varieties are widely grown across North America and Europe, with extensive greenhouse and hothouse production extending the season.
