Great Grilled or Broiled Jerk Tofu

 

1 1/2 cups vegetable broth

2 pounds firm tofu, sliced

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup barbeque sauce

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

2 tablespoons Jerk Seasoning (see below) or prepared jerk seasoning

 

Bring the vegetable broth to a simmer in a large saucepan over low heat. Add

the tofu and salt, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove the tofu from the pan

with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-covered plate to drain.

Combine 1/2 cup of the barbecue sauce, the oil, brown sugar, and jerk

seasoning in a large bowl. Place the tofu in the bowl and toss to coat with

the marinade. Marinate the tofu in the refrigerator for 2 hours or

overnight.

Preheat the broiler.

Place the tofu on a baking sheet. Brush with the remaining 1/2 cup barbecue

sauce. Broil the tofu for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the top starts to

bubble. Serves 6.
