Have you tried soy curls yet? I’ve had them at various vegan restaurants before but only recently started playing with them at home, and let me tell you, I am impressed! I think they are one of the best meat alternatives around. Personally, I’m not a huge fan of the vegan meats out there, and I only eat them occasionally. I much prefer beans, tofu or tempeh. But I think these soy curls will have a regular place in our menu, and I’m excited to create more recipes with them! These Vegan BBQ Sandwiches with Soy Curls couldn’t be easier. First, you have to re-hydrate the soy curls by soaking them in warm water for about 10 minutes. *PLEASE NOTE THIS PAGE MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS.

Drain them, pull them apart a bit if desired, and add to a large pan, along with most of the bbq sauce. You can make my Quick and Easy Vegan Barbecue Sauce (I highly recommend it!), or use your favorite brand from the store. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, and then serve on buns or rolls with Classic Vegan Coleslaw. Delish!
Are soy curls healthy?
Well, you can decide for yourself, but I feel perfectly good about including them every so often in my plant based diet. They only have 1 ingredient, which is whole soybeans, so they aren’t that highly processed soy protein isolate, which a lot of the vegan meats out there are made of. I put them in the category of tofu or tempeh, which I also like to enjoy occasionally. This is the nutritional breakdown of Butler Soy Curls. As you can see, they’re a high protein and pretty low calorie food.
What do soy curls taste like?
Soy curls are so good! They are chewy and they really soak up the flavor of whatever you cook them in. These BBQ soy curls are chewy, juicy and have a great mouth feel. They will satisfy any bbq craving you have! BONUS: My kids love them!
