A twist on a common dish;
Barbecued Seitan Ribz
---
Like Veggeroni, this seitan is baked dry rather than boiled. The results are a little spongier than Veggeroni, less dense, but I think the texture is perfect for absorbing the flavor of the barbecue sauce!

*Ingredients
1 cup vital wheat gluten
2 teaspoons smoked Spanish paprika
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons tahini or other nut butter

*Mix the water with the nut butter, Liquid Smoke, and soy sauce and add it to the dry ingredients
*Stir to mix well and then knead lightly 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
*Now prep the girll
*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 and invert the whole baking dish onto the grill brush the top of the seitan with more sauce
