The best plant-based chicken won't take until 2081. There's already excellent plant-based chicken available. Some of it is already indistinguishable (depending on preparation). I think they're going to master chicken long before they master beef, and there are already a few startups working on plant-based beef (recently notable, Impossible Foods).
There are so many mock meat choices. If you've had one and didn't like it, it might be too soon to write off the category. In the Bay Area, try a chicken sandwich from Veggie Grill, one of the most convincing things you can get locally.

Gotta have tender beef, ribeye preferably, marinated and rubbed and smoked and braised or steamed, then grilled with peppers and onions. Does the fake stuff stand up to that? No? Then its got a long, long way to go before it replaces anything.
