Barbeque Tofu Sandwiches


Small, savory, filling.  The sauce is nice and tangy with a hint of heat.  I used homemade rolls which added a nice flavor.

Makes 6-8 sandwiches

1 package, extra firm tofu
1 cup apple cider vinegar
2/3 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup mustard
1.5 Tbs robust molasses 
2 Tbs dark brown sugar
1 tsp hot sauce (More to taste.  A lot more to prove your wo/manliness)
Salt and pepper to taste
Mustard, greens, onion to garnish

Press the tofu for 2+ hours, getting as much liquid as possible out of the block.  Slice into 1/4 inch strips.

Mix the vinegar, tomato sauce, mustard, sugar, molasses, hot sauce, salt and pepper in a sauce pan.  Heat over medium heat for 10 minutes, until the sauce begins to thicken.  Remove from heat.

Transfer about 1 cup of the sauce to an oven dish and add the tofu.  Add more sauce to cover if needed.  Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

Add the tofu and sauce from the oven dish to the sauce pan and cook over low heat for 20 minutes.

Eat.
