While Kobe Beef at a fancy restaurant may be out of your budget, Costco is giving you a chance to try the world-famous beef at home thanks to its new Kobe Beef Slider Meal Kit. Not only is the meal kit budget-friendly, but the whole thing comes together in just 30 minutes.
To celebrate the start of fall, Hak's (a leading manufacturer of condiments and prepared foods) is selling a Kobe Beef Slider Meal Kit at Costco stores across Los Angeles and Orange County. Unlike most meal kits, Hak's version contains high-end ingredients such as juicy Kobe beef. In addition to six Kobe slider patties, the kit also contains organic American cheese, sweet caramelized onions, six pretzel buns, and a tangy mustard aioli. The meal kit even comes with a side of sweet potato fries for a complete restaurant experience.
While there are plenty of meal kits on the market, Hak's latest offering shows the potential market for more gourmet at-home options.
