Growing Information

Growing Burpee's Supersteak Hybrid Beefsteak VFN Tomato

Burpee’s Supersteak Hybrid Beefsteak Tomato Seeds carry on the legacy of one of the most dependable large-fruited hybrids ever introduced. Bred as an improved version of the original Beefsteak, this variety produces hefty 1–2 pound fruits with classic meaty texture, smooth skin, and that slightly tangy flavor gardeners love. It offers all the size and satisfaction of traditional beefsteaks but with better balance, earlier maturity, and greater resilience in the garden.

Maturing in about 80 days, the vigorous indeterminate vines thrive in full sun and produce heavy crops of uniform, deep red tomatoes. The fruits are juicy but firm, making them ideal for slicing onto burgers, sandwiches, and summer plates. Strong resistance to Verticillium Wilt, Fusarium Wilt (Race 1), and Nematodes helps maintain plant health throughout the season, while the improved growth habit and earlier production make it easier to achieve consistent results even in challenging conditions.

For gardeners seeking reliable performance and huge, flavorful tomatoes, Burpee’s Supersteak Hybrid Beefsteak Tomato Seeds deliver the perfect balance of size, taste, and disease resistance. It’s no surprise this variety has remained a trusted favorite for more than three decades—big, bold, and consistently delicious.

My favorite tomato 6 years running

I bought a package of these in the spring of 2020, and they quickly became my favorite tomato. The tomato in the picture is sitting on a dinner plate and even though it's a beef steak, it doesn't have the disformed shoulders that a lot of those varieties have resulting in slicing loss. Delicious tomato flavor also. I always add mushroom compost to the hole and give it a good top dressing as well and use straw as mulch. You won't be disappointed.

A must have tomato

This is Bruce, the gardener. I grow mostly heirloom tomatoes, but supersteak is a MUST. It is the go to tomato for BLT's. It is firm enough to hold together, but not hard and the taste is super. Big enough to cover the whole slice of toast.

Go to variety

My father grew this variety over 30 years ago with great success. I have been using it for at least the last 25. It is such a large beautiful tomato and it tastes great too. I give a lot of them away and actually am quite popular for it because nobody else has anything close to this at least around my circles. You do have to prune,
stake and tie Faithfully or you will not get the results you should.
