Sweet, smoky, and made for the grill, this Bourbon Peach BBQ Grilled Tofu brings peak summer flavor to every bite. Hodo Extra Firm Tofu is coated in a smoky-spiced rub, grilled until beautifully charred, then brushed with a punchy bourbon-peach BBQ sauce that hits just the right balance of sweet, tangy, and savory. Grilled peaches go alongside for an extra dose of caramelized summer goodness, all served over fluffy white rice and finished with fresh basil.
