Australian Beauty Tomato – This Heirloom tomato made my list because of size with average size being from around 1 3/4 lb to 2 lbs (ca. 907 gram) some over and some are under, but the average is at the height of the season.

Curtis Cheek Tomato – This is another Heirloom tomato that had an average size around 1-1/4lbs, steady at the height of this plant production.

Also, these have so many use to them from slicing to canning and sauces, overall a very versatile fruit for uses.
Lavender Lake Tomato – A Rare tomato from Bulgaria which was a great producer of these fruits, averaging in weight around 1-1/4 lbs.

Mac’s Pride (Big Mac) Tomato – We just grew this for the first time this year and WOW what a tomato. They have weights around 1-1/2lbs and were very productive. This Heirloom tomato has Potato Leaf foliage to them, and they were very juicy, meaty but more on the acidic side in taste. Another tomato you can not go wrong with in your garden.
Springston’s Heirloom Tomato – A great tomato that is balanced with an old timey flavor to them that reminds me as a kid with my grandfather and the tomatoes he used to grow.
