A new look here, Celine, i will have to get used to foraging my way around here… Those riblets look great!!! So… uh… “meaty” but without the cruelty, of course. i would love to try to make this some time!

I hope you’ll love them. my husband used to be hooked on the gardenburger ones until they became unavailable in town.

i’ve never had seitan, let alone make any, but those seem easy. and look yummy. i had some gardenburger brand ‘bbq riblets’ earlier this week but those faux meats from the store get costly. i’ll be giving these a try. thanks for the recipe!

Hilary, you can try the original recipe if you don’t fear the fat, it’s absolutely delicious too! I just wanted to make it a slightly lower fat version.
