BBQ Tofu PDF Print E-mail
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
  • firm tofu
  • tamari
  • garlic powder
  • molasses
Directions:

!!!You will need a charcole BBQ for this!!!

This is a simple recipe that has people begging you to make more once the platter is picked clean.

First you must use charcoal for this recipe and if you have those mesquite chips or whatever then you can use those too. I prefer the Weber Kettle BBQ (I own no stock).

Cut the Tofu into slabs about 2" square not too thick though.

Coat them in Tamari.

Sprinkle on garlic powder (powdered is better here 'cause it sticks).

Drizzle on molasses, use a brush to spread the stuff around coating all of them on both sides.

When the grill is ready place them on an cover. You may want to coat the grill with your choice of no-stick solution. Turn them over an cook on the other side. It's important you get the grill lines. If you really want to impress people (and why not) place the tofu slabs on a diagonal then rotate them so you get that cris-cross grill lines effect like on meat.

You can serve them as is as you would a meat dish or put them in sandwiches, this is best done the next day as leftovers. Be prepared to make these often since they always go fast.

Serves: Many
