I've done it and my vegans loved them. Used a basic rub with some evo. Then again I am one of the few who have actually smoked........(afraid to say it on this board) TOFU!
That was a huge hit.
P.S. what was the concern you heard about? |

| The tofu did not have much work to it. Did two variations one with a standard rub on it. The second one I did teriyaki style. Neither absorbed two much smoke as I did not leave them on to long. It was more for effect and inclusion (so they could be there with slabs of ribs and flesh). Use extra firm tofu, rub, and whatever sauce you want. Throw it on some tinfoil and smoke until done. I think i went 45 mins or so. |

Did you drain it like some people drain yogurt to firm it up? How long before you smoked it did you rub & marinade - how much flavor did it absorb? Did it remain firm? I've seen it grilled on TV but not smoked.

Getting back to 'roons', I tried something the other day and want to pass it along.
Crimini, baby portabellos, stuffed with chorizo and cream cheese. Cook the chorizo, cool, add to the cream cheese, cut the stems off of the roons and holow out a little, stuff the roons, add rub or cajun spices on the top, brush the roon itself with evoo and smoke till the chese is bubly and brown. Yummy, good to put out with abt's. |
