INTERMEDIATE RECIPE
DIRECTIONS
1 In a small bowl, add all chimichurri sauce
ingredients and stir to combine. Evenly cover all
sides of the tofu with half of the sauce. Set the
remaining sauce aside.
2 To install the grill plate, position it flat on top of the
heating element and gently press down until it sits
into place, then close the lid.
3 While holding the smoke box lid open, use the
pellet scoop to pour pellets into the smoke box
until filled to the top. Then close smoke box lid.
4 Turn dial to GRILL. Set WOODFIRE FLAVOUR.
Set temperature to HI and set time to 12 minutes.
Select START/STOP to begin preheating (IGN and
preheating will take approx. 9 minutes).
5 Brush mushrooms with olive oil and season with
salt and pepper. When the unit beeps to signify it
is preheated and “ADD FOOD” is displayed, open
the lid and place mushrooms, cap side down on
one side of the grill. Close lid to begin cooking.
6 After 5 minutes, open lid and flip mushrooms.
Spoon approximately 1 teaspoon of chimichurri
sauce into each cap. Place the marinated tofu
slices on the other side of the grill. Close lid to
continue cooking.
7 After 4 minutes, open lid and flip tofu. Close lid
and continue cooking until time expires.
8 When cooking is complete, remove mushrooms
and tofu from grill. Place burger buns, cut side
down and cook until slightly grilled in the residual
heat, about 1 minute. Divide the remaining
chimichurri sauce between burger buns. Place
1 slice tofu onto each bun base then top with a
mushroom and rocket leaves.
