Seitan BBQ Sandwich
Seitan (wheat gluten or mock chicken) is one of ingredients that I would like to play to create a new menu for our meat-free dinner. I simmered one box of Seitan (8 oz) in my original BBQ sauce made with Penzeys BBQ spice mix, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, honey and a little of water. With homemade vinegary slaw, the sandwich was somewhat Southern-ish. Seitan's texture wasn't firm enough to mimic real chicken or pork meat (which I didn't mind but J did) while the flavor was not bad at all. My homemade buns were perfect to the sandwich too.
