I admit the picture does make it look like someone threw up on top of spaghetti. But just know that the tofu version of this dish looks ten times more attractive than its meaty counterpart. Pulled pork is not pretty.
Anyway, this is another recipe for my Southern vegan cookbook. I used the same barbecue tofu recipe that I use for my Barbecue Tofu Mushroom Sandwiches, which calls for crumbled tofu, minced mushrooms, and my special sauce (recipe's in the book...sorry). I did add minced green bell pepper to the spaghetti dish though because it seemed like a good thing to do.
I scarfed this down after my workout this evening, along with a iceberg lettuce salad slathered in Organicsville Non-Dairy Ranch (the best thing ever for vegan ranch lovers!). The only thing missing was the traditional red-and-white oilcloth that typically covers the tables in Memphis barbecue joints!

Is it wrong to say I miss BBQ? I never really was that enthused about the meat but I always loved the sauces and the sides. What else can be slathered in BBQ sauce and taste great?
Oh my!! Who could've thought to create a scrumptious Tangy BBQ tofu spaghetti dish?!! ONLY YOU!!
Like I said, you're so darn talented (ok ... I guess that's why you're publishing a cookbook)!!!
Thank you for creating this dish ... I have to embarrassingly admit that I really like BBQ sauce, not so much of meat but I love the sauce!! Can't wait till the birth of your cookbook *yay*
I seriously love how you veganize all these incredibly non-vegan Southern dishes, that is so cool.
Yum! Next: BBQ nachos, a la Neely's or Corky's. BBQ tofu and noochy sauce over tortilla chips? Why not!
That looks delicious! I love spaghetti with BBQ or chili on it. Being in TX you hear about that kind of stuff all the time. I miss the veggie versions and I can't wait for your cookbook. As for the book...It's evil, I tell you. I'm hooked. You should read the series. I really like them.
Yeah, it does look...not so appealing. But I bet it tastes great :)
You are too freaking funny "threw up on spaghetti"...
I think it looks dynomite!
I looove spaghetti with bbq sauce... umm, but I dunno how I feel about it now that I read your very "appetizing" description lol!
Whoa dang... 'Nuff said. :)
