[Beyond Meat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beyond-beef-value-pack) burgers can be purchased from a wide variety of restaurants and packs of patties are easy to find within retailers—but the brand is looking to make its innovative plant-based meat product even more accessible with Cookout Classic. The limited-edition pack of 10 burgers is being introduced to stores like [Walmart](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/notburger-launches) and [Target](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butcherbox), so that shoppers can access an affordable way to feed a crowd with something other than beef patties.

The Cookout Classic pack is priced at $15.99, which brings the price of each soy-free, gluten-free patty to about $1.60. Perfect for grilling season, the plant-based burger pack comes in a fully recyclable cardboard carton that will appeal to consumers who are looking to make more environmentally friendly eating choices this summer.
