GOT QUESTIONS? WE GOT ANSWERS.
What’s Beyond Beef?
Beyond Beef is a plant-based ground meat made without GMOs, soy, or gluten to deliver on the versatility, meaty texture and juiciness of ground beef. It’s ready to use in your favorite recipes.
I want Beyond Beef! Where can I find it?
Beyond Beef can be found at grocery stores nationwide. Use our locator to find the closest spot to you!
Why is it in the meat section?
Great question. Part of our vision is to re-imagine the meat section as the Protein Section of the store. In this way, we can help introduce plant-based options to people where they are already purchasing other forms of protein.
How does this differ from the Beyond Burger?
It doesn't! Just like animal-derived ground meat and packaged burger patties, our Beyond Burger and Beyond Beef are both made from the same plant-based meat. Our premade patties make it quick and convenient to grill up a burger, and our plant-based ground is versatile enough to use in any ground beef recipe, or can be hand-formed into your own burger patties.
Why ground meat from plants that aims to replicate meat?
Our brand promise is to enable consumers to Eat What You Love™, and in this case juicy, delicious plant-based ground beef. At Beyond Meat, we believe there is a better way to feed the planet. By shifting from animal to plant-based meat, we can address four growing global issues: human health, climate change, constraints on natural resources, and animal welfare.
What kind of protein do you use?
Peas, mung bean, and rice provide a complete protein. Beyond Beef is made without GMOs, soy, or gluten.
What are the white specks?
The white specks are made from coconut oil and cocoa butter. These plant-based fats provide melty, mouthwatering marbling to Beyond Beef, creating a juicy texture that’s closer to ground beef than ever before.
How do you rebuild meat without genetically modifying anything?
Protein, fat, minerals, carbohydrates, and water are the five building blocks of meat. We source these building blocks directly from plants. Using heating, cooling, and pressure, we create the fibrous texture of meat from plant-based proteins. Then, we mix in fats, minerals, fruit and vegetable-based colors, natural flavors, and carbohydrates to replicate the appearance, juiciness, and flavor of meat. The result? Uncompromisingly delicious plant-based breakfast sausage, no sacrifice required.
Does Beyond Beef need to be refrigerated?
Yes. Just like animal-derived meat, you should keep Beyond Beef® at refrigerated temperature until you cook it on the stovetop, griddle, or grill.
How long can I keep Beyond Beef?
If bought refrigerated, check the retailer-applied sticker “use-by date” on the front of the package. If bought frozen, refer to the “If purchased frozen, use by” date on the packaging. Once you decide to thaw, Beyond Beef has a 10-day shelf life. We do not recommend re-freezing once the product has thawed or been cooked.
Can I freeze Beyond Beef?
All of our products are shipped to the store frozen. If products are purchased thawed, we do not recommend refreezing and suggest following the stickered best by date. If the product was purchased frozen, it can be stored in the freezer following the printed best by date. We also do not recommend freezing the product once thawed or cooked.
Is Beyond Beef safe to consume if I have a nut allergy?
Peas are legumes. People with severe allergies to legumes like peanuts should be cautious when introducing pea protein into their diet because of the possibility of a pea allergy. Our products do not contain peanuts or tree nuts.
