Burpee's Steakhouse - Page 3

I grew both Steak House and Supersauce last year. The SH did not live up to the hype (as expected). Porterhouse and Steak Sandwich did much better. Supersauce was fairly productive.

SH was just decent tasting last year, yield was good though. I will not try it again.

Steak Sandwich F1 is a very very tasty tomato, and is available in the USA in the standard Burpee big box displays so it won't cost you an arm and a leg. I manage to it to ripen even in Zone 3a without a greenhouse so in any decent climate it should be a star.

Crack free and delicious pink baseballs.

Does said tomato have a name? And if so, any seed availability? It sounds like it might do reasonably well in a container too.
