Beefsteak tomatoes are one of the largest and juiciest varieties of tomatoes. They have a meaty texture, mild flavor, and are typically bright red with a slightly flattened shape. Because of their thick flesh and low seed content, beefsteak tomatoes are ideal for slicing and are often used in sandwiches, burgers, and salads. They can also be grilled or used in cooked dishes, although their high water content makes them less common for sauces.
