BBQ Gluten Strips

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Start the coals in the grill.
  3. Lightly spray an 8x8 square pan with oil.
  4. Mix the first 5 ingredients together in a large bowl.
  5. Mix the water with the nut butter, Liquid Smoke, and soy sauce and add it to the dry ingredients.
  6. Stir to mix well and then knead lightly in the bowl for a couple of minutes.
  7. Put the dough into the baking dish and flatten it so that it evenly fills the pan.
  8. I found this to be a bit challenging the first time as the gluten is quite elastic and does not want to settle down.
  9. Be patient and keep trying.
  10. It will lay flat after a few minutes of trying.
  11. Mend any holes in the gluten by pressing it back to shape.
  12. Take a sharp knife and cut it into 8 strips; then turn the pan and cut those strips in half to form 16 pieces.
  13. This is also hard to do, just do the best you can as you will have the opportunity to re-cut later.
  14. Put it in the oven and bake for 25 minutes, uncovered.
  15. Remove it from the oven and carefully re-cut each strip, going over each cut to make sure that the strips will pull apart easily later.
  16. Generously brush the top with barbecue sauce.
  17. Take it to the grill and invert the whole baking dish onto the grill (or use a large spatula to lift the strips out, placing it sauce-side down on the grill).
  18. Brush the top of the strips with more sauce.
  19. Watch it closely to make sure that it doesn't burn.
  20. When it's sufficiently brown on one side, turn over and cook the other side, adding more sauce, if necessary.
  21. When done, remove to a platter and cut or pull apart the individual strips to serve.
  22. Enjoy!
