I've made this BBQ tofu at least 5 times this week already - they're that good! And, as an added bonus, it's a super easy recipe. Just cut up some tofu, flour it, and then fry. Totally delicious eaten immediately, and pretty good even when reheated. This recipe is definitely something that you could make a large batch of and then reheat later on (assuming there's any left)! I've tried this BBQ tofu various different ways, and although my preferred method takes a little more time with an overnight marinating step, you could easily skip the overnight marinade step and still have some tasty BBQ tofu sticks. I also tried various "flours" to coat the BBQ tofu sticks, and I have to say, I like corn meal the best since it provides some additional texture and crunch. I've also used regular flour and bread crumbs. These tofu sticks would be perfect as an appetizer or snack. Give them a try, and let me know what you think!
