Easy Beyond Burger Clone - Plant Based Burger Recipe

Easy Beyond Burger Clones. Let's make a plant based burger at home. I saw something like this on another channel called Sauce Stache. I'm a fan of Sauce Stache, as are many of you I'm sure. I love how creative and scientific he gets with making vegan meat alternatives and his Beyond Meat burger recipe is no different. I do however prefer to cut some fat and sodium from our diet, so I decided to try to make Sauce Stache's Beyond burger clone recipe, but lower in fat and sodium. So... how is my version of the Beyond burger?
Ingredients:
1 Cup (100 grams) Textured Vegetable Protein: amzn.to/3Q2p73t
1 teaspoon Beet Root Powder: amzn.to/3mhbbEW
2 Tablespoons Methyl Cellulose: amzn.to/3xcha39
1.5 Tablespoons (15 grams) Pea Protein Powder: amzn.to/38RnaWM
1.5 teaspoons Mushroom Seasoning: amzn.to/3H0Co8z
1 Tablespoon Nutritional Yeast: amzn.to/3NoNG97
1 gram Garlic Powder: amzn.to/3QfFFoX
1 gram Onion Powder: amzn.to/3LbHvXs
Fresh Black Pepper to Taste
1 Tablespoon Low Sodium Soy Sauce: amzn.to/3xvpkFj
1 Tablespoon White Wine Vinegar: amzn.to/3NqjGK3
1 Cup Cold Water
1/2 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil: amzn.to/3MurnO8

Instant coffee powder is a great addition to fake meats if you want to give them a bit of a 'beefy' flavour which adds a real richness and depth. I'd also suggest molasses/treacle for similar reasons, as it has the iron-y flavour you get from beef.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I absolutely agree! I have messed with this recipe a lot. Coffee, cocoa, black vinegar, beef bouillon, etc, and found this simple formula actually had the best flavor. That said, feel free to alter it to your tastes of course!

[@yemaya74]

Great ideas.. I’m going to try that .. thank you 😊🙏🏽

[@ethanearthhh]

How much should I put in this recipe?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

None. :). Doesn’t need it. But when I do I only use a pinch really.

[@cherylwin9364]

THIS RECIPE IS LIFE CHANGING FOR ME AND MY FAMILY AND IT DOES REPLACE GROUND MEAT VERY WELL. THANK YOU SOO MUCH.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

This is one of my favorites. I make these up and store in the fridge for a couple hours or overnight and BAM. You have burgers. Also makes a great meat for tacos, meatsauce, and even meatballs (video coming soon!)

[@PlantBasedBistro]

@@tarahh.3921 honestly, I've never tried. Not sure it would come out the same since you're looking for fully cooked with a bit of a crust on the outside.

[@Nepomniachtchi_Austin]

I'm not a vegan and have no intentions of being one, but I still love these videos, the substitutes that are used are chemically fascinating. Everything is a chemical, but how science has developed substitutes is fascinating, and seeing it put into practice is super cool to me.

[@gohawks3571]

I'm not vegan either, but want to eat less meat. The more vegan videos I watch, the more interesting things pop up! I have made a few fails, but vegan foods are very fun and interesting! And many times healthier anyway. I came to learn cegan meats due to availability issues of the pandemic. This is great, because it's shelf stable ingredients. Plus, you can taste things before cooking so the outcome isn't a mystery 😁👍

ok brother, i want to thank you again. using your links i ordered everything, it all came in and my wife combined and mixed the ingredients just as you demonstrated, then cooled it for two hours and grilled it up. wow was i impressed. this is it, it looks, tastes and bites perfect, my wife spritzed a little liquid smoke on hers, but not me and i am so pleased. on ours she toasted the buns, added a slice of american cheese, pickles, onion, tomato, lettuce, a little mayo and mustard. what a treat, being vegetarian never tasted so good. of course we had french fries from the air cooker and ketchup to go with it. you my friend really did us good with this recipe and with all the ingredients we have, we'll be enjoying these delicious burgers very very often. you could serve these to anyone with confidence of receiving raves. thanks again, your new subscriber, tom

Eating one now and you're right about the texture. It's about spot on but maybe between a hamburger and sausage patty. Regardless, it's the best so far after about 10 of these I've made from KZbin. I did put 1 tsp of black strap in mine. Thank you.

This is a better mix. Yes, doubling up on the methylcellulose is necessary to hold together. I do like oil; and canola, but not saturated like coconut. Great burger.

Same here. I want something quick and easy. I've made these up in less than half an hour and while it's hydrating, I cut up the veg, get the buns toasted, etc. Super fast and tastes amazing imho.

[@carolynblakeney966]

This is going on my to-do list! I adore Mark's channel (actually I call it Mark and Monica's channel because she is so integral to so many of the videos) and have watched his clone video several times. But I don't need that much fat, having tossed animal meat aside decades ago. That is my quibble with the commercial products too but I understand what they are trying to do- replicate the animal product without hurting the animal. I suspected you could do a version that wasn't so high in fat so it's time to get in the ring and test it out! I might start with a bit more oil as I find many 1 pound seitan (or other plant meat) recipes typically include at least a tablespoon of oil, which is still not horrendous when spread over 4 portions.

[@BillMcHale]

So, I have made these burgers twice, the first time, I substituted the methylcellulose with arrowroot and psyllium husk... and they were tasty, but soft... tonight, I used methylcellulose and added a little worsteshire sauce and a little molasses... I cooked them on the grill next to some beef burgers for my kids.. and they were fantastic.. they even had little pools of red juice on the top before I flipped them. If I hadn't known better, I would have never guessed them to be plant based... I have a burger recipe for the summer.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Awesome! So glad you like them.

Dude! Thanks so much for putting the recipe in the description. People who don't do this just don't make any sense to me. This is what I'm making for dinner tonight and I'll report back, albeit with finely grated beets instead of the powder. If you want a dark charred surface like burgers, consider putting just a dab of black strap molasses in there as the sugar caramelizes like beef.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Without the methyl cellulose they will probably fall apart fairly easily. Just so you’re aware. Also, these will char much like meat anyway :)

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Doh! You meant instead of the beetroot powder… should be alright I think!

[@mattcero1]

@@PlantBasedBistro Indeed. I've got just under 2 Tbsp of HV methyl cellulose in the mix and it's in the freezer now for 25 minutes followed by the reefer then grill. It seemed to set up very well after a good mixing.

The best part to me is that you made it without having to worry ground meat would go bad or having to but meat. Its shelf stable food which requires refrigeration only after creating the protein.

The methyl cellulose works better for me if I mix it with a liquid and all seasonings before pouring it on top of the tvp and quickly mixing

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I will have to try that.

[@Bronte-on6tm]

Thank you! Would this be suitable to use in a meat loaf recipe?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Maybe... I have tried a few times and it wasn't quite there. Maybe with some veggies and mushrooms mixed in?

[@nancyherrmann2491]

When adding all the ingredients together can you put some say sauteed mushrooms in the mixture? Lots of times I have extra onions or mushrooms that have been sauteed and I like to add them wherever possible. I suppose I would just have to watch that they don't get too wet when adding the liquid.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

They may make it too wet or prevent it holding together as well. But you can try.

[@donsonthewise]

I added instant espresso powder and I use pumpkin protein instead of pea protein and these burgers came out PHENOMENAL!!!! 5 out of 5. I also added some liquid smoke. I never thought it could be this good. Thank you 🙏

I can tell you psyllium will not work. It will be gummy, not the correct texture. I tested it recently.

[@cydeYT]

@@PlantBasedBistro oops I meant 66c

[@PlantBasedBistro]

[@michlobw]

I like your approach. But having NO fat may make this patty a little dry. What do you think about a little compromise by adding just one tablespoon of organic coconut oil to the mixture?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Coconut oil is just saturated fat. If you really must use fat, use olive oil or canola. Saturated fat is the one linked to heart disease. That said, it's not really dry. Also, since I am diabetic, having a low fat diet helps keep my issues under control.

[@asloan193]

I am thinking about using this in a South African recipe (Bobotie) 1. Does it do well as browned up Ground beef, 2. Should I put all the seasonings in if the meat in this recipe is very seasoned anyway? Thanks

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I've never made bobotie... to be fair, this is meant to be a burger, so the "meat" will hold together like a burger. There are many ways to make a ground beef like product. Personally, I'd use tofu. I can post a video today about how to do it.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

You can try it for sure. May make a bit drier result. Just fyi… air fryers have non stick coatings too. Modern non stick shouldn’t have that effect. Also, never heat non stick past 400f and it shouldn’t be an issue either.

[@aniquadros]

I wonder if there is a substitute for Methyl Cellulose, if there is one, please let me know.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

To be honest, there isn't really. You can try using psyllium husk or various starches, but the real trick to methyl cellulose is that it tightens up as it gets heated. That doesn't happen with other things the same way.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

It's not harmful though, so if you can find it (we get it online, link in the description) I would use it.

I watched this again. I'm slowly weaning off of TVP and subbing in gooey brown rice and beans with my DIY recipes. TVP drives the cost way up and my goal is the least expensive and tastiest "fake" (yup, I said it) burger you can make from very inexpensive items bought in bulk at my local Chef Store. The Asian market stores here in Seattle have awesome items not found in American style groceries like rices, grains, starches and flours. Pay one a visit. I do add black strap, beef boullion and 15 to 20 drops of liquid smoke to better the taste. I'm thinking there's no way around using methyl cellulose though if you don't want a squish burger.

@@PlantBasedBistro Thanks. I am also experimenting with TVP and methylcellulose. Getting there, but not there yet. The TVP where I live is coarser so I am thinking I should pulse it when still dry to make the bits smaller before continuing with the recipe.

[@myisleofview]

You could try to add a little bit of breadcrumbs, then blend it to get the chunks smaller. Off course other seasoning would help as well. But that should give you some sausage without gluten. If you wanna bring em to the next level: wrap em in rice paper.

I am back. Definitely do not use chickpea flour if you don't have pea protein.

Just an fyi… Amazon is made up of thousands small businesses selling their products as well as thousands more (like us) helping to market them. Bezos is one person. He is mot the entire corporation. By refusing to feed him… you are hurting small businesses all over the country and the world. Just food for thought.

The heme isn’t really good for you by the way. It causes cancer. The only reason it’s in impossible meat is so it “bleeds”.

[@nozarm10000]

@@PlantBasedBistro Are you talking about the iron supplements regarding the "heme'"?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Heme iron is found in meat. It's what they put into impossible foods too, just from a plant based source.

[@xmarkma4291]

is this considered ultra processed?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I wouldn't know. It's certainly processed food.

Can someone make a big batch and freeze them uncooked?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I suppose you could. Freezing after cooking may work better though.

[@SuperLaura516]

I’ve made similar patties, formed them, placed them between pieces of parchment and freeze. They thaw and cook great. Thank you for sharing. I will try your simpler version but I will add some fat.😊

I have had zero luck with methylcellulose. I made these burgers and they totally fell apart and were mushy when I bit into them. I even have the same methylcellulose that sauce stache uses - the high viscosity stuff from modernist pantry. I wish I could get results like yours!

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I ended up using far more than he does. Also, let them sit for an hour or so to fully hydrate. Should feel pretty solid when you form them into burgers. I have had some fall apart, but they were either too wet or too dry usually.

[@whatsdafocuscfour3767]

Do you have to use methyl cellulose? I was told it’s not an healthy substance? Any other alternatives?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

In high doses it can be, but so are most foods. As for needing it? Yes. They will fall apart without it.

[@grantpetty7231]

I had the same problem following his recipe with 1tbl of methylcellulose and cooking them right after. The texture was much firmer when I froze the patty first and then cooked it.

Watching this video again, since I was thinking about these, and also new channel. How much would this recipe need to change to make it gluten-free? I'n considering recommending it to someone who is trying to avoid gluten.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

The burgers are gluten free except for the soy sauce. There are gf alternatives like tamari or soy aminos.

[@cabal3747]

@@PlantBasedBistro It might only matter to a true celiac, but most soy sauces aren't gluten-free. If someone needs to avoid all gluten, they need to check the ingredients carefully when it comes to soy sauce. Liquid aminos or coconut aminos are a safe substitute. Coconut will add some sweetness, so I would lean toward Liquid for a dish like this.

About how many burgers do you make with all of these ingredients because a pack of Beyond burgers come with 10 patties only $10 at Costco right now so unless 60 $70 I'm going to spend can make me at least 30 burgers I don't know man I just don't know about this one it's cool to create your own stuff though and I bet it taste great Great channel Great comments Love everybody

[@PlantBasedBistro]

That recipe makes about a pound so maybe 4-6 burgers? It's definitely cheaper than Beyond meat though.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I would think with all the ingredients you can make several dozen easily.

[@davemiller3349]

I didn't have much luck with this recipe and I'm trying to figure out where I went wrong.. I followed the recipe and immediately made myself a little test patty only to be disappointed when it came out gummy and didn't firm up at all.. I used the full two tablespoons of methyl cellulose.. are you supposed to let the mix sit for an hour or so before using it? I'm guessing this is where I went wrong, using it immediately. It just sorta tasted like raw seasonings with a gummy texture 😢 can anybody give me some advice? This was my first time trying to make plant based patties.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Yes, I put it in the fridge for a couple hours.

Thanks for that. We try, but not all our recipes are "health food". We aim to replicate the foods we ate in the "before time" with plant based versions. That said, we do eat our fair share of greens and healthy meals!
