Marv would know best, but this is my preliminary list.

1. 8.41 lb. - Big Zac, Dan MacCoy 2014
2. 7.75 lb. - Delicious, Gordon Graham 1986
3. 7.419 lb. - (variety?), Gianfranco Sarin 2006
4. 7.325 lb. - Delicious, Phil and Jane Hunt 2010
5. 7.315 lb. - (variety?), Maria DiFranco 2004

And one more over 7 lbs.

6. 7.18 lb. - Big Zac, Nick Harp 2009

On top of Brush Mountain, Pa.

For now the top tomato is the only one that really counts. I now believe that Gianfranco and DiFranco were related and that they both were actually growing the same variety tomato which they both then weighed at The Great Tomato Hunt and which they, of course, won the year they entered.
