How to cook deliciously - BBQ Tofu
1. Stage
Cut each block of tofu lengthwise into 4 “steaks.” Arrange tofu steaks on a double layer of paper towels on a cutting board or rimmed baking sheet. Top tofu with 2 more layers of paper towels, then place a baking sheet on top. Top baking sheet with a heavy skillet. Let sit at least 15 minutes or up to 1 hour.
2. Stage
Meanwhile, in a small pot, combine ketchup, vinegar, molasses, brown sugar, gochujang, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic powder, and onion powder; season with a pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper. Bring mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat, whisking often. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to simmer, whisking often, until slightly thickened, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool slightly.
3. Stage
Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; clean and oil grates. Brush tofu steaks all over with vegetable oil; season with salt and black pepper. Grill tofu, flipping halfway through, until slightly firmer and lightly charred grill marks appear, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
4. Stage
Generously brush tops of tofu with BBQ Sauce and arrange sauce side down. Brush tops with more BBQ Sauce and cover grill. Continue to grill until sauce is slightly set, 2 to 3 minutes more.
5. Stage
Transfer tofu to a platter. Serve with remaining sauce alongside.
