We’ve been making pan-fried Beyond Meat burgers at home recently and they taste better than the beef burgers we used to make. They don’t work as well on a grill as they tend to stick to the grill and are easy to dry out, but pan-frying works well.

If you are comparing to beef in the grocery store, then I suggest you buy locally-raised grass-fed beef from a farmer and try again. Most of the beef found in stores is absolute garbage.

If you get a chance and haven't already, try a black bean burger. They grill nicely too. Also lots cheaper.

I like the Beyond Meat burgers even though I'm not vegetarian. They remind me just enough of beef, but still make a perfectly fine sandwich. A&W make a mighty fine V burger with them, and I can only imagine McDonalds will pull it off just fine.

What I really wish McDonalds would bring to this side of the pond is Chicken Big Mac. I like them more than the beef Big Macs, but I've only ever seen them overseas.
