Beyond Meat won recognition for its Beyond Steak product.

Beyond Meat has scooped a major award for its latest innovation – Beyond Steak.

The plant-based seared tips won the prestigious 2023 FABI Award (Food and Beverage Innovation) from the National Restaurant Association for breaking new ground in creativity and taste. 

Made with fava bean protein, Beyond Steak, provides a juicy, meaty taste and authentic flavor profile and is perfect for sandwiches, bowls, salads, stir fries, fajitas, tacos, and more.

It is low in saturated fat and has 21g of protein, no cholesterol, no GMOs, and no added antibiotics or hormones.

‘Revolutionary food and groundbreaking flavours’

FABI honours products that revolutionise food and beverages with groundbreaking flavours, ingredients, creativity, and profit potential. It praised the product for its “tender” bite and perfectly “caramelised crust.”

At Beyond Meat, we’re committed to creating delicious, nutritious, and sustainable plant-based proteins so operators can offer plant-based versions of the classic dishes their guests crave,” said Dawn Lockwood, VP and Head of Foodservice at Beyond Meat.

“As the latest innovation to deliver on that  commitment, we’re honoured the National Restaurant Association has recognized Beyond Steak for its incredible taste, texture, versatility, and operational ease.”
