Pineapple Beefsteak

I think I may have the trophy this year, witness the wonder of the Pineapple Beefsteak! The first in the sequence is the monster (to the left above the tennis ball), I keep forgetting to borrow Tina's ribbon measure for the circumfrence. The other 2 will be at least 2lbs, this is a really tasty tomato, has really pronounced fruit flavors (mango, pineapple, yummy). I didn't expect to get anything like this (if I had, I would've thinned for a even bigger monster), can't wait to weight them when they ripen.

Look out, I'm gunning for the trophy!

First Entry of the Season

I brought in my Delicious tomato at the club last Saturday, 7/21, for weigh-in. This is the first entry of the season. The fruit measured 13-1/2 inches in girth and weighed 17.4 ounces. Carmel took the official measurements.

The competition is just beginning. I am sure more entries are coming. Meanwhile I will enjoy this one in my sandwiches.
