When it comes to tofu, I usually stir fry it with veggies, or bread it and serve it with a tomato sauce and spaghetti. This was a nice change of pace...I never thought to put tofu in a hamburger bun!! I used whole wheat hamburger buns and served it with a green salad, making for a super healthy dinner!! I also used honey BBQ sauce, which was super yummy with the combo of the onions. I will be making this again!!

I really liked this recipe! I cut my slices to a half inch, so it had to cook a little longer. It was so good, I'm having it again this week!

I don't know what I did wrong. This recipe has gotten so many good reviews I thought it would be a winner. As things started coming together I had second thoughts.

These sandwiches are great! I didn't drain my tofu well enough, so it all crumbled. But that is okay because my husband doesn't like big chunks of it in his food. He normally makes faces at my tofu dishes, but he ate these without suspecting it was even in there! He loved it,and was very surprised. I think the key is making sure to cook to tofu until it is very browned and firm. I think adding veggie baked beans might be nice also. Will make this often! Thanks!

Im constantly looking for good tofu recipes and this one was SO GREAT! I agree with the comments above to drain the tofu well. I made some modifications such as butter instead of oil for more flavour, red onions,honey-garlic sauce instead of BBQ, and a toasted bagel. It turned out awesome! Next time im going to try it with some cheese on top as well! Thanks for the great recipe!

This was a great recipe because I used a homemade bbq sauce (Nana's Barbeque sauce, on All recipes.com). I "breaded" pressed firm tofu with olive oil and whole wheat flour. It was not crispy but did "brown" to an extent. If using a good sauce, it won't matter that the tofu isn't crispy. It will turn out well.

Delicious and very easy! If you love barbecue, then you'll love barbecue tofu. This is even better if you use your own homemade barbecue sauce, but bottled is great if quickness is desired.

We have made this repeatedly & its very good! One thing I've found helps alot with regard to texture - we cut the tofu into small squares and bake them first! Baking them will keep them from crumbling without having to add fat by frying. If you don't want to cut it into pieces, you can just slice it and bake (we just prefer the smaller pieces).

WOW! An absolutely amazing meal! This was my first time cooking tofu and it came out beautifully...thanks to the advice given by the other comments. A few things to reemphasize: 1. Do follow the previous suggestion of letting the tofu drain VERY well 2. Make sure you don’t cut the tofu too thin or you might have a hard time keeping it from crumbling 3. If you use too much oil the tofu might end up tasting a little like the oil 4. If you're in a hurry, this probably isn't the meal (unless you already drained the tofu). It also took me a little longer than expected to get the tofu a yummy golden color. I cooked mine with a little too much oil, I’m afraid. After the tofu was golden I drained the oil and sautéed it with lots o’ onions for about 10 minutes, this and the fact that the BBQ sauce I used was delicious (Kraft’s Honey BBQ sauce), really helped cover some of the oil taste. It turned out great (the tofu and the onions) and there is no doubt that it will be made again...soon!

This is a great recipe. Just a couple of comments. I think that breading the tofu is a good idea. Also, you really have to let the tofu cook for a while o get it really firm, otherwise the texture will be mushy. This could become a summer staple at my house.

This was incredibly delicious and broke fresh ground in my cooking repertoire.It is so easy,and left a lot of room for seasoning to your own tastes.This time I coated tofu in flour before browning in a frypan in order to make its surface more crispy,and that made it!Grilled mushrooms also go with it. The key for this dish is to drain tofu well.Before frying,I usually wrap it with paper towels,put a plate on it,and set it aside for a while.If your tofu crumbles,try to drain it this way!

We're not real vegetarians over here, so we had a little texture aversion to straight tofu. It was good, though, overall.

Yummy!!!! Just by using different sauces you can change this recipe time and time again. And I make a batch with regular barbeque sauce for the family, then throw on some Texas Pete for me! Thanks for the wonderful recipe!!

This is the first time I've successfully cooked firm tofu! It was so delicious! I followed another reviewer's idea of putting the tofu on a weighted plate for 30 minutes and that idea worked great. My meat-eating husband loved it! I made it in a sandwich and also over rice with fresh green beans and it was fabulous!

I don't know what I did wrong but the tofu absorbed the flavor of the vegetable oil when I was frying it and it still tasted like vegetable oil no matter how much sauce I added.

Mmmmm, Delicious! I think next time i may try crumbling the tofu and eating it like an open face sloppy-joe! The key to this all hinges on what BBQ sauce you use. I used Rocky Mountain honey bourbon...fantasic!!!!

It may be that because I don't eat vegetarian all the time I am not used to Tofu...basically, I could've passed a bottle of BBQ sauce around the table, and had the same effect, except the cooked product was warm. As I was trying to brown the tofu, it crumbled, and never really did become "Golden". It sure makes the house smell like something good is for dinner....yuck!
