Now, what Brown wanted was to literally re create the taste of beef without cows. So he started by deconstructing the composition of meat, down to the molecular level.
“Why does meat taste like meat? We had to take on that question,” he says.
There had to be something that gave beef its unmistakable flavor. Early on, he and his team https://www.canadagooseonline.info homed in on one compound in the blood of cows. It’s called heme. You and I have it, too in the hemoglobin in our blood.

Brown has lots of people excited about his burger. Bill Gates has invested in his start up, Impossible Foods, which is already supplying burgers to seven high end restaurants, including the Michelin starred Public in New York City. Just last week, chef Brad Farmerie put Brown’s burger on the menu at Public and a second restaurant where he’s executive chef, Saxon + Parole.
Farmerie prepares one for me to sample. In the skillet, the patty looks remarkably similar to ground chuck. As he puts one in a hot pan, he tells me that, in addition to all that heme, the patty also contains canada goose outlet parka bits of wheat and potato protein to add bulk.
“It looks, cooks and sizzles like beef,” he says. “And when I flip it over, you’ll be amazed. It caramelizes like beef as well.”

Of course, with the star chef treatment, it’s undeniably delicious and, I can vouch, it’s juicy like a real burger. “I like it a lot I think it has that nuttiness you get from good beef. I think it has great moisture, great mouthfeel,” Farmerie says.
Farmerie is known for his unusual and fancy meat offerings, like kangaroo and sweetbreads. So his customers weren’t expecting a bleeding plant burger.
“This would be a surprising place to find it,” says Phillip Duff, a customer sitting at the bar. At my request, he tries one. “This is a tasty burger,” he says, but he notices the texture is a little different. “It kind of falls apart a bit.”
The burger is on the Saxon + Parole menu for $17, canada goose outlet miami which seems on par canada goose outlet uk fake with other items on the menu. When I asked Duff how much he thought people would pay for it, he replied, “I think this would sell about the same price as a regular burger.”
To charge a premium, Duff says, the makers will have to work hard to tell the story canada goose outlet seattle that this burger is better for the Earth, because he doesn’t think the taste alone will stand out for people.
If you never told people what’s in the burger, Duff says, “they quite literally would not know.”
But that’s exactly what Pat Brown wants for his burger to be so tasty that it’s cheap canada goose indistinguishable from a regular beef burger. He knows he has to bring the price down. Eventually he wants to out compete beef, even if it canada goose outlet locations in toronto takes him years to get there.
Next month Impossible Foods plans to debut the Impossible Burger at a regional burger chain based on canada goose victoria parka outlet the East Coast. At first, it’ll only be sold at one location, but the goal is to expand to more franchises.
