Vegan Seitan Jackfruit Barbecue "Ribs" - Possibly THE best Seitan I Have Ever Had

[@bw-dude]

Hi guys, I made those today. In fact, I just finished eating. The are really fantastic, juicy and "meaty". I know you are all about low-fat, but ribs aren't everyday food, so I added a quarter cup of desodorized coconut oil to the recipe. They didn't come out "fatty" though, just perfect. And you are right, you really could fool some people. Thank you!

[@PlantBasedBistro]

You are welcome, but be careful with coconut oil please! You added over 50 grams of fat and about 500 calories to that dish! 45g of that is saturated fat. Studies show that too much saturated fat is bad for heart health. This is why we avoid coconut oil altogether and greatly restrict any oil use. Not trying to preach, just dispense information. I mean, this is a low fat cooking channel after all :)

[@bw-dude]

@@PlantBasedBistro you are right of course, but calories are not a problem for me, I am pretty skinny. I usually only use top-grade olive oil in small quantities, never deep-fry anything and I am almost sugar-free (I even replaced ketchup/BBQ with Ajvar). I see dishes like those ribs as a treat which I can afford once in a while.

as a vegan that also watches CSB I can't be more excited about this channel!

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@lisahanlin5317]

I love watching you two together. Thanks for the great recipes

[@Dyastarre4993]

Thanks for this recipe. I’ve been cooking seitan for a couple of decades and I swear, the recipes are getting better and better. I appreciate your format ❤

[@PlantBasedBistro]

You are very welcome! I've seen improvements in just a few years even!

[@Pheexperiment]

I love MSG lol and I am still here in good health. I love your videos!

[@sebleblan]

nice new channel guys! I liked the brewing, and the vegan cooking is even better :) feels like I'd enjoy hanging out with you...

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Thanks!

Just subscribed. Love you guys!

Would try this

[@Hyper-Linkman]

The Very Good Butcher just went out of business months after I finally got to buy their vegan ribs and steaks at a local grocery store!! So this is very much appreciated. When I was looking around for recipes, I found a website called Faux Bones that makes *wood bones* for vegan meat, lol. Might be a fun addition to throw people off at BBQs 😂

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Had no idea they went out of business. Interesting.

[@Hyper-Linkman]

@@PlantBasedBistro I had to find out on their Instagram of all places, after looking for any place still selling their products! Unfortunate, they had great meatless options.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I only tried a few of their products to be fair. I much prefer making it myself so I can control fat and salt content.

[@joannemcmillan9201]

Faux bones do add to the experience. It’s like never having missed ribs.

[@Hyper-Linkman]

@@joannemcmillan9201 6 months have passed since I left this comment, and I still have not tried this lol. Does the vegan meat stick pretty well, or is it like 'well-done', where it falls off the wood bone?

[@stephensano9156]

Very thorough recipe! I can't wait to try this!

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Hope you enjoy

[@AZjoe52]

I've only made a seitan one time, a seitan brisket ( not from one of your recipes) and I did not like it. However, this looks so good I am going to try it, Thanks

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Brisket is… unique. Ribs though, juicy, tender, yeah, you should try this. I have also found seitan to be a learned skill. Takes some time even with recipes to get a feel for it. We tried to make this method as simple as possible while giving a great texture and flavor.

[@hannahwig]

Ohh! These “ribs@ sound sooo good and I can’t wait to try them! I don’t live near an Asian store, do you know where I can find the flavoring online? Thank you so much 🙂

[@PlantBasedBistro]

The pork seasoning is hard to find. I have used vegan chicken bouillion with similar results: a.co/d/1EnoPII

[@newmexivegan6737]

Looks great guys

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Thank you!

[@AdamFranklin500]

Absolutely awesome!!

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Glad you like it!

[@madarch3r]

Great video! We featured your video on my website this week in our "Concessions" area. Link is in my bio!

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Thanks....

[@xorlop]

wow, what a great video!

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Glad you liked it!

[@connissia]

Looks delicious! 😄👍

[@PlantBasedBistro]

It was!

[@jamesjasonallen4168]

Would it work to cook this on a n actual smoker?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I haven't tried but maybe?

[@XBadger1]

Libe the video making it for my vegan gf who said she misses ribs. You guys haave a great oresentation. Goodness though you guys are chatty lol :) i bet there is never awkward silence in your house ;) In all seeious thank you so so much for the recipe. You guys are life savers

[@kerrielester1038]

I have toasted sesame oil. Can I use that?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Yup. Same thing.

[@kerrielester1038]

@@PlantBasedBistro Thank you!

[@yallik154]

Ever try this recipe with shredded mushrooms instead of jackfruit?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

It doesn’t have the same texture. I tried a few things before settling on jackfruit.

[@sahamal_savu]

Think I'm going to try to fool my Dad with this one 👍 I can't get him to even try tofu of any kind lol

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Best of luck.

[@NicholasCullen1]

As another KZbin personality says, MSG = make sh*t good

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Still wouldn’t eat it… with MSG or not! Lol
