Need plant-based inspiration for that backyard barbecue? Our Chipotle BBQ Pulled Tofu Sandwiches are a fun Tex-Mex twist on pulled pork sandwiches. They are tangy, smoky, and topped with a creamy dressed broccoli slaw. Our secret ingredient? The sweetness of Red Gold Folds of Honor Ketchup beautifully tames the heat from the chipotles in adobo. Best yet, these sandwiches come together in around 30 minutes.   @plantbased.passport   @thefeedfeed

Ingredients

  • 1 block shredded super firm tofu, 10 ounce
  • 2 tablespoons chipotles in adobo
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar

  • 1/4 cup Red Gold 32 oz Ketchup Folds of Honor

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup vegan sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon agave nectar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 1 cup broccoli slaw

Instructions

Step one

Shred the tofu using a box grater and arrange it on a lined baking sheet.  Preheat oven to 375°F. 

Step two

Whisk together the minced chipotles in adobo, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, organic granulated brown sugar, Red Gold Folds of Honor Ketchup, freshly cracked black pepper, onion powder, minced garlic cloves and kosher salt. 

Step three

Use your hands to carefully but evenly toss the tofu in the chipotle BBQ sauce, taking care not to break apart the tofu shreds too much.  Bake for 15-17 minutes, set aside.

Step four

Whisk together the vegan sour cream, chopped cilantro, apple cider vinegar, agave nectar, ground cumin, kosher salt, and freshly cracked black pepper.  Add the broccoli slaw and mix to evenly coat it in the dressing.  

Step five

Toast the burger buns.  Divide the shredded tofu and dressed broccoli slaw evenly between the two buns.   Optional: top with dill pickle chips and jalapenos.
