Homemade Seitan Barbecue (Bbq) Ribs - Vegan image

This is an original recipe by Susan V from fatfreevegan.com. It's so easy to make and incredibly yummy! You can buy Vital Wheat Gluten at most grocery stores (look for Bob's Red Mill). I did not have nutritional yeast so I omitted this ingredient with no lack of taste. These were "grilled" on a griddle and it worked out great. My meat eater hubby loved it as did the kids. Check out http://everydaydish.tv/cookingshow_video.html for a video on how to make this. (it's under Susan's Ribz).

Time 40m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup vital wheat gluten
2 teaspoons paprika (smoked Spanish)
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons nut butter (peanut butter, tahini, cashew)
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 cup barbecue sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly spray an 8x8-inch baking dish with canola oil.
  • Mix the first 5 ingredients together in a large bowl. Mix the water with the nut butter, Liquid Smoke, and soy sauce and add it to the dry ingredients. Stir to mix well in the bowl for a couple of minutes.
  • Put the dough into the baking dish and flatten it so that it evenly fills the pan. Take a sharp knife and cut it into 8 strips; then turn the pan and cut those strips in half to form 16 pieces.
  • Put it in the oven and bake for 25 minutes. While it's cooking prepare your grill pan or grill.
  • Remove it from the oven and carefully re-cut each strip, going over each cut to make sure that the ribz will pull apart easily later. Generously brush the top with barbecue sauce. Take it to the grill pan or grill and invert the whole baking dish onto the grill (or use a large spatula to lift the seitan out, placing it sauce-side down on the grill). Brush the top of the seitan with more sauce.
  • Watch it closely to make sure that it doesn't burn. When sufficiently brown on one side, turn over and cook the other side, adding more sauce, if necessary. When done, remove to a platter and cut or pull apart the individual ribs to serve.

I've made these ribs several times now, and they're always a hit. They're perfect for a backyard barbecue or a potluck.

These ribs were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best vegan ribs he's ever had.

I'm not a vegan, but I'm always looking for new and interesting recipes. These ribs were a great way to switch things up. They were delicious!

These ribs were a fun and different way to enjoy seitan. I liked the smoky flavor of the sauce, and the seitan had a nice texture.

I love the idea of vegan barbecue ribs, but this recipe didn't quite hit the mark for me. The seitan was a bit dry, and the sauce was too sweet.

These ribs were amazing! I couldn't believe they were vegan. I'll be making them again and again.

Not bad! I've had better seitan ribs, but these were still pretty tasty. The sauce could have been a bit more flavorful.

These ribs were a bit too chewy for my taste, but the flavor was spot-on. I'll try cooking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

I was skeptical at first, but these ribs were surprisingly good! The seitan had a great texture, and the sauce was tangy and smoky.

I've been a vegetarian for years, but I've always missed barbecue ribs. This recipe finally filled that void! The seitan was so realistic, and the sauce was delicious.

These ribs were a huge hit at my last barbecue! They were so tender and flavorful, and the sauce was perfect. I'll definitely be making them again.
