A good friend inspired me to re-introduce Magnum Beefsteak and I’m glad he did! This large, red, slicer grows in the 12-16 oz. range for me but can grow larger. Production is excellent and the flavor is old time”tomato-ey”. Magnum Beefsteak is surprisingly early for a large beefsteak – my sister, in short-season Montana, was able to get a good crop of ripe fruit. This Chuck Wyatt creation is one of my favorite red tomatoes and I recommend it for both novice and experienced growers. (See Chuck’s own description below.)

A little history of Magnum Beefsteak, this is Chuck Wyatt’s own description (from his website) :

Magnum Beefsteak 80 days – Indeterminate, Regular leaf, This outstanding beefsteak variety is the result of several years of selection of a volunteer that appeared in my garden. Its superbly flavored fruit can be expected to well exceed a pound and production is outstanding. Disease resistance is super.
