VEGETARIAN BARBECUE SANDWICHES(SLOW COOKER)

Steps:

• For the Ancho Paste:.
• Place the chilies in a small pot and cover with water.
• Cook over medium-low heat until soft, about 15 minutes.
• Blend with the water to make this delicious, dark paste. If using chipotle peppers in sauce, blend in food proccesor and add water if needed to make a paste.
• For the Barbecue Sauce:.
• Sauté the onion until brown, 5-7 minutes, then add the garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
• Deglaze the pan and place all the ingredients in a slow cooker. Stir, then blend with a hand-held blender. (If you don�t have a hand-held blender, combine the ingredients in a regular blender before placing them in the slow cooker.).
• Cook at the medium-heat setting for at least 1 hour. The sauce is best, however, when slow-cooked at the low-heat setting for 8 hours�the longer the shredded gluten cooks with the barbecue sauce, the better. Stir occasionally.
• For the Wheat Gluten:.
• In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Add the wet ingredients and knead until most of the liquid is absorbed. (I like to keep a little extra wheat gluten on the side to absorb any excess liquid.).
• Place in an oiled baking dish and bake for 25 to 30 minutes at 350°F Remove from the oven and cool.
• Cube, then place in a blender and pulse to shred. (Don�t worry about making this perfect. Just worry about overusing the blender because that will create wheat-gluten mush.).
• Combine with the Barbecue Sauce. Cook in a slow cooker set at medium heat for at least 1 hour.
• To Serve:.
• Place on your favorite sandwich buns (big, toasted buns with poppy seeds look great), or serve alone.
• Makes 4 servings.

• Add all ingredients to the slow cooker. Cook on low for 8 hours or on high 5-6 hours, until the lentils are cooked through and the mixture thickens. Open the slow cooker and, using a potato masher, mash about 1/3 of the filling. Give it a good stir, replace the lid, and let it cook for another 30 minutes or so until thickened.
• Meanwhile, toast the buns. Brush insides with olive oil and place cut-side-up under the broiler in your oven. Broil 30 - 60 seconds until golden.
• Place buns on plate and spoon filling over the top. Add toppings if desired. Serve.
• Leftover filling keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
