Mushrooms are elevated to another level in this BBQ Mushroom Sandwich. BBQ seasoning and BBQ sauce transform mushrooms with sweet, smoky, and spicy flavors.
This vegan BBQ sandwich is a great alternative to pulled pork. It is hearty and comforting.
Top it with coleslaw or sliced pineapple. I like it with pineapple because it balances out the spicy flavors nicely.

🔪 Instructions
- Cook onions until translucent.
- Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds.
- Add mushrooms. Stir and cook about 5 minutes.
- Add BBQ seasoning, salt, pepper, and BBQ sauce. Stir to combine. Cook a couple more minutes.
💭 Tips
- Add salt at the end of cooking. Salt brings out moisture in the mushrooms.
- Don't clean mushrooms until you're ready to cook them.
- I like to wipe them with a damp towel. Keep in mind they soak up water and can get waterlogged, so if you wash them make sure to dry them completely.
🥡 Storage
The mushroom and onions will last about 7 days in an airtight container in the fridge.
