Instructions
0 Prep: Drain the canned jackfruit and rinse well. Transfer the jackfruit to a cutting board; remove any seeds and cut off any firm “core” pieces”. Use your fingers to shred the jackfruit and set aside. Grate the tofu using the largest setting of a box grater; combine with the jackfruit and set aside. 1 Sauté: Warm the oil in a large sauté pan over medium high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until translucent. Add jackfruit and tofu mixture to the pan along with the paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well, then sauté for an additional 3 to 5 minutes. 2 Simmer: Add 1/2 cup (120 ml) of barbecue sauce along with the water. Mix well, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer the jackfruit for 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. 3 Serve & Store: Stir in remaining BBQ sauce and remove from the heat. Serve on toasted buns topped with slaw. Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also freeze this Barbecue Jackfruit in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months.View original recipe
