Texas Dry Rub Seitan Steak with Chili BBQ Sauce

BBQ'ing vegetables and Seitan is great regardless time of the year (I see BBQ'ing as a year-round cooking method, not something seasonal). Seitan is very protein rich yet the absolute no-no for those of you who are allergic to Gluten.


I make my own Seitan, but pre-made is fine if you're in a rush.

Ingredients
1 tbsp mixed crushed peppercorns (Black, Red, Green and White)
1 tsp Chipotle Chili Pepper
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp granulated garlic
1 tsp granulated onion

Cover the Seitan steaks in the dry rub and cover with a plastic wrap and keep in the fridge for an hour. Bring the steaks to room temperature before throwing them on the grill.

Here's how you make a fantastic Chili Barbecue Sauce to serve with the Seitan steaks.

Ingredients
1,5 dl Ketchup (If you don't make your own, chose Heinz as it contains no High Fructose Corn Syrup)
1 tbsp Vegan Worcestershire Sauce (recipe found here).
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
1 tsp Chili Powder
1 tsp granulated onion
1 tsp ground black pepper

Serve with grilled vegetables.

  3. Hi Stacey,

    Thanks for checking out the blog.

    I make my own Seitan if I'm not in a rush, so washing it is. I don't eat a lot of Seitan as I generally try to avoid gluten, but sometimes it's hard not to as there's so much one can do with it.

    If you don't have a recipe I can post the one I use which is almost identical to the one found in the Candle Café Cookbook.

    I hope you like living in Nacka!

    I wouldn't mind though if you'd like to share your recipe for making seitan, if it's not too much of a trouble.
