This sandwich of such succulent, tender tempeh, this tangy addictive sauce is just so good, I was inspired to make something similar of my own...
What I did:
- I bought half a block of tempeh from Proper Eats, and cut off three pieces.
- I boiled the pieces for 8 minutes, drained & sprayed with Bragg's Liquid Aminos
- Then, I baked the pieces in a lightly oiled casserole dish with about 1/2 cup of bbq sauce for 20 minutes at 375F.
- I then added 1/4 more of sauce, threw on some chopped bell pepper, increased the heat to 400F and baked for an additional 15-20 minutes.
- Removed from the oven and cooled a couple minutes..
Some more roastin': purple, red and yukon gold potatoes with rice bran oil, fresh rosemary and whole garlic cloves
Roasted red bell peppers - waiting to star in risotto.

What does boiling do to tempeh? I've never done it, or heard of a recipe that called for it.
That sandwich looks AWESOME...
Taylor - boiling the tempeh takes a way some of the 'bitter' flavor people associate with it. I did it because not only was my tempeh frozen prior to making this dish, but I also wanted it to be tender.
Oh, yum. Portland is awesome, and I'm jealous. Your recreation looks pretty awesome, too. Oh, and pretty potatoes.
Sounds like a winner! Everything's better with bbq sauce. Thanks for posting your tempeh bbq recipe! Sounds easy and tasty...
wow, that sandwich!! what a beauty!! I wish I could taste it, haha. I have never been to Portland, but with all of those great Stumptown restaurant reviews, I really need to head out there soon!! Oh, and those potatoes and red pepper are gorgeous :0)
Wow... that sandwich looks amazing.. and I love your recreation.
Can't wait to hear more about the risotto..
I've been craving BBQ lately for some weird reason. I do have some frozen tempeh just hanging out. Hmmmm...I wonder if I have BBQ sauce.
Gah! That tempeh pic is killing me! I reckon your version looks even tastier than the restaurant one. Gotta try this soon...
Yum, I love roasting. Those blistery skins are making my tummy rumble!
Gosh, I guess it's been a little while since I stopped by your blog. I love the layout!
Everything looks really amazing. Yum yum.
I'm practically about to cry because that sandwich exists somewhere in the world and I can't have it. wah wah wah!
Hey, you were in our part of town! We've only just recently discovered Proper Eats. Good stuff! Oh, I just read there's another vegan restaurant that just opened up--even closer to where we live--called Nutshell, on N. Williams. Haven't tried it....let me know if you do and how it is, and vice versa. :-)
Nice blog, and cool design, like Kirai's one!
Besos from Spain :-)
drool. drool.
I bet EVERYONE wants to be your friend, Jess ;)
