Vegan “Ribz”
Ingredients
- 1 cup Vital Wheat Gluten
- 2 teaspoons Smoked Paprika
- 2 teaspoons Nutritional Yeast
- 2 teaspoons Onion Powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
- 2 tablespoons Creamy Peanut Butter, Tahini or other nut butter
- 1 teaspoon Liquid Smoke
- 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
- 1 cup BBQ Sauce plus more as needed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Lightly spray an 8 x 8 inch baking dish with canola oil.
- In a large bowl, combine the vital wheat gluten, smoked paprika, nutritional yeast flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, and fine sea salt, mixing well.
- In a bowl or measuring cup, mix together 3/4 cup cool water with the peanut butter until smooth. Add the liquid smoke and soy sauce, mixing well.
- Add the peanut butter mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir to mix well and then knead lightly in the bowl for a minute or two.
- 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 90 degrees and cut those strips in half to form 16 pieces.
- Bake the Ribz for 30 minutes – they should only be partially cooked at this point. While they're cooking, prepare your outdoor grill or grill pan.
- Remove the Ribz from the oven, and carefully score each strip, partially cutting them to make sure that they'll pull apart easily later. Generously brush the top with barbecue sauce.
- Take the Ribz to the grill or grill pan, and invert the whole dish onto the grill. Brush the top with more sauce.
- Watch the Ribz closely to make sure they don't burn. When sufficiently brown and caramelized 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 individual Ribz to serve.
