    That's a Roma, they start out oblong stay that shape. Beefstake starts out round and gets bigger.

    Romas make really good sauce, lots of meat and not as many seeds as others.

    It looks like a san marzano which is a paste tomato, but I also have a "cherry" tomato that is from a line called "artisian" tomatoes and is striped and elongated, too.
