Big Beef Plus Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum ‘Big Beef Plus’) is a premium beefsteak tomato variety prized for its large fruit size, rich tomato flavour, and outstanding garden performance. An improvement on the popular Big Beef tomato, this vigorous variety produces abundant harvests of smooth, deep red tomatoes that are perfect for slicing, sandwiches, burgers, salads, sauces, and fresh eating. The large fruits are known for their excellent balance of sweetness and acidity, delivering classic garden-fresh tomato flavour. Tomatoes commonly reach substantial sizes while maintaining attractive shape, firm texture, and reliable quality throughout the season. The vigorous indeterminate vines continue producing fruit until frost, providing an extended harvest period for home gardeners. Big Beef Plus is valued for its strong disease resistance, excellent productivity, and adaptability to a variety of growing conditions. The plants perform exceptionally well when grown in garden beds, raised beds, large containers, or greenhouse settings. Staking or caging is recommended to support the heavy fruit load and maintain healthy growth. In Alberta, Big Beef Plus Tomato thrives during the warm growing season and delivers reliable harvests of large, flavourful tomatoes from mid-summer until frost.
