Beefsteak tomato side shoots

Do you remove them as with normal toms? I've never grown them before and the plants look very different to regular tomato plants.

A picture of what, the plant?

When I say "different" they are obviously tomato plants

just a lot squatter and don't seem to have the same growth habit if that makes sense?

Oh, b*gger it, I'll just take a pic

Hi gobs, unfortunately not no, I chucked the packet :oops:

They were definitely beefsteak though, I am sure of that. I'll take that pic tomorrow.
