Tofu
Options
Ok...put down the ropes and guns. I like a steak as much as the next person. I was just wondering if anyone had done anything with tofu on the egg outside the obvious stir-fry. I was thinking I'd get a block of extra-firm, drain it, marinate it in BBQ sauce for a bit, then put it on the egg in my fish-grill. Throw on some chips and maybe work it into a szechuan BBQ thing.

Hank,
I made some for my daughter last night. I cut a block of extra firm into 3/4" inch slabs, set them on multiple paper towels, covered with more towels, then set a flat weight on them. When they were pretty dry I marinated them in Wishbone Italian dressing and soy sauce. Then grilled them like a steak. She loves them. -RP

AZRP,
Excellent! Thanks. I've cut way back on my red meat lately. I still do pork and seafood a lot. I throw on the occasional steak or burger, just not so often. And I'm trying to come up with a list of vegetarian alternatives for guests when I decide to do a grill party.

Hank,
Never egged tofu before. But if you're ever at Beni Hana's then you have got to try their tofu appetizer. It is, quite simply, the best.

Hank,[p]Did it once for a work BBQ competition. Someone said BBQ had to be meat, and I thought, does it really need to be.[p]Had some extra firm that I sliced, added a little of the rub, and smoked. Towards the end basted with some sauce.[p]I put it on with the pork butt and left it for a while. Seemed to get rubbery. The next batch was not on as long and texture was a whole lot better.[p]Basically, attempted the low and slow trying to get more smoke. Next time, I'll try it at a higher temp and see what happens.[p]Tiz
