Instructies
Reconstitute the TVP by mixing it with the water and soy sauce in a microwave-safe bowl.
Cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 5 minutes.
Alternatively, pour boiling water over the TVP and soy sauce, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes.
Once cool enough to handle, add the beans, wheat gluten, ¼ cup barbecue sauce, liquid smoke, pepper, and peanut butter to the reconstituted TVP.
Mash together with your hands until the mixture is uniform and most of the beans are mashed.
Form the mixture into 6 patties.
Grill the patties on the barbecue for about 5 minutes per side, brushing with additional barbecue sauce as you go.
Alternatively, pan-fry them in a bit of oil, then top with extra barbecue sauce.
Serve on a bun with your favorite toppings.
