Althought I must say that I think it will be impossible to ID it to a specific variety b'c most in Lebanon that were grown by families were never named. I discovered that when Omar Sahib brought back to me seeds from the hill town area which I named Omar's Lebanese and is a large pink beefsteak.
This year I grew one called Libanaise Montagnes and it's a large red beefsteak.

Colour - i would describe as light red getting towards a dark pink,when it ripens,it retains green shoulders that slowly disappears when the tomato becomes over ripe and starts to wrinkle.
Size and shape - the fruit is slightly flattened and is rather inconsistent in size,that largest i picked so far is 6 cm across with at least half the tomatoes 20-30% smaller.
icelord-maybe we swoop seed and grow them side by side compare them??,i'll send ya PM.
