You read the title correctly. This is a recipe for Barbecued Pulled Seitan Sandwiches. No, not pulled pork, but pulled seitan. Can you really substitute meat? My DH would say no, although we have been eating seitan in different recipes for awhile now. But can you replace something like pulled pork? I mean come on…it is succulent pork we are talking about! Yes, we can…and it tastes just as delicious.
Delicious Rating: I think most wouldn’t know that this recipe had a meat substitute in it. Altogether, the sandwich comes together so well in this easy delicious recipe. Browning and adding some crispy edges to the seitan really gives it the “meaty” touch. But with the BBQ sauce and coleslaw, I doubt you are really thinking about what you are eating, you are just thinking about eating it because it smells and taste delicious! What is your favorite Seitan recipe?
