Vegan Roast Turkey made with Seitan! 

Please make some vegan indian food

Been vegan/vegetarian the last 10 years. I have never made any saiten type meat cuz it always seems to complicated. I litterly just made this and tried it right now. Danm it's so good and the recipe was straight forward and simple. Thanks for the video ❤❤❤

Lol. I had my MIL pick up the Gardein stuffed turk’y roast thing for me last month (to make sure we could actually find one). I swear within a week of her going to Target, all of my favorite vegan chefs posted their recipes for seitan turkey roasts. I think I’m going to have to try yours sometime soon, just for the sandwiches.

Hey, just to let you know that back this summer when you posted that seitan short it was the push I needed to get back into being a Vegetarian again! Every weekend I make a loaf, each time a little different, trying new things. So, Thanks!

Love this man!

Best thing ever! Just made this, blended everything besides the wheat gluten, tossed in bowl mixed till good. Turned out amazing potatos/gravy were 10/10. Will make every year. thank you.

You really make magic! Im not a vegan, but i love the creativity vegans have. And for a good cause. I am going to have to try this

You are such rockstar! I like that you made this look so easy and I will try it. I made Seitan without tofu and man, what a process. Yours looks way better. Thank you and by the way, LOVING your cook book! ❣

So I brought it to Vegansgiving, and there was almost nothing left to take home, It really stole the show. I barely got any for myself so I have to make another, which I guess is a good problem to have haha! Thanks again for this recipe!

Just put the loaf in the oven. So far it smells awesome. And the poultry rub; 🤯 ! I’ll keep y’all posted on how the family reacts.

why have Jesus when there's seitan?

Can you do Vegan Roast Ham.

The simplicity of the steps made my subconscious apprehension of making seitan disappear. Thank you, and looks amazing.

I commented earlier that I made the roast (followed to the exact recipe) on Tuesday and was waiting to baste and bake today. RESULTS are in! Served to 5 adults. THUMBS UP! Easy to prepare, great umami flavor, good texture, and presentation was beautiful (just like the photo on your website) served sliced on platter surrounded by fresh rosemary. Served with mushroom gravy. Suggestions from family were to slice it thinner, as slices were about 3/4 inches thick. Meal was completely vegan. Look forward to trying out more of your recipes. Thank you! ❤😊

Perfect timing! I’ve looked at several turkey roasts and wasn’t impressed but figured I’ll just make the blah roast anyway….THEN! Your recipe pops up in the feed and WOW!! This is THE ROAST!! And I HAVE all ingredients! 😅 THANK YOU!!! Plan to make it Tuesday and then ROAST on Thanksliving to IMPRESS my vegan and omnivore family. Your cookbook will be on order for Christmas gift giving. ❤😊

I bought the cookbook and can't wait to make my own food!!! ❤🎉

This looks like it's the winner for this Thanksgiving at my house.

If this tastes as good as it looks it will be freaking awesome! Great job!

This looks like the real thing! Definitely gonna try this😋

Made this at the weekend and it was awesome. Can't stop slicing pieces off for snacks 😂 Only thing I would say, is my dough mixture was nowhere near as combined and stretchy? I kept trying to add water, oil and flour to try and bind it better. Gave up in the end, still turned out well. Thanks for a great recipe 👍🏻

I NEEDED THIS! Was totally going to just make your slices for thanksgiving lol

Is it fan oven or not Edit: can you make it without msg?

Dude your channel is amazing, I've been vegetarian for 3 years, but discovering your channel gave me so much needed empowerment (when everybody around you mocks u for being vegetarian) and so much ideas. The only thing I would reccomend you is to replace your onion and garlic powder with fresh ones. The fresh onion is a lot more sweet and garlic has that spiciness in it. I live in a country where it is common in shops to find fresh and cheap onion and garlic, but I saw a lot of american cc's use this powders and it always seems strange to me. Anyway, your doing a wonderfull job, stay who you are! PS Your Q&A web section is also great, it helped me with explaining my choices, especially with my conservative family.

This is SO delicious! The rub and the marinade are just great additions to the already-tasty seitan itself. Smells great baking, too! I made it twice-the first time the texture was a little gummy for my taste. I upped the VWG to two full cups the second time and it was just right. This is going to replace the seitan turkey recipe I've been using. I love it!

I made your recipe but cooked it for 45 minutes in the instant pot and the inner temperature was 206 and I think next time I’ll do 30 minutes. I did use my mixer and I should have mixed a little longer but it taste so good and that even without the glaze. Great recipe. Can’t wait to eat it with gravy on Thursday HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Fantastic! Thank you, Burger Dude- you are awesome!🎉

thanks for the gravy recipe. it came in clutch this holiday.

❤ looks yummy Can eat vegan Turkey all year ..delicious vegan. Thank you for sharing this, Burger dude.🎉😊

So good! First Thanksgiving since going vegan, and this was a hit with the family!!!

Hail Seitan!

Would love to see a vegan corned beef and cabbage

Awesome vegans: Thee Burger Dude Evil Vegans: ThatVeganTeacher

I've seen so many recipes for seitan that are almost all exactly the same, yet are supposed to produce about 8 different kinds of meat. They don't. They all taste exactly the same. I've been able to make a decent pepperoni out of the recipe, but the chicken, steak, turkey, and ham all taste exactly like the pepperoni. I don't understand why this would be so. And I do believe it's because of that weirdo aftertaste you talk about. It's so prevalent in all of those recipes. And all of those recipes use the exact same seasonings, so I have to wonder why anyone thinks they're getting something different from it. It's just the potato and carrot "cheese sauce" thing, all over again. Everyone is just willing to accept subpar because they can't figure out how to do it right. If it looks right, that tends to be good enough for most vegan recipes. Who cares what it actually tastes like. Anyway, going to try your turkey and I give up if this one doesn't work.

This recipe couldn't come at a more perfect time! I'd love it if you made a comfort meals cookbook 😁

Does anyone know where you can find gravy master/browning sauce in Australia? Coles and Woolworths don't seem to have them and I can't find any info online.

Thank you for this. I hope it tastes as good as it looks. A little time-consuming, but it's definitely doable for me. Sadly, I'm a lazy cook.

The way you pronounced it several times, it sounded like you were baking Satan. 😆

Made the mistake of over kneading first go and it was a bit too tough - this time was perfect... Dont think ill be buying fake meat slices anymore!!

I made this for Thanksgiving and it was awesome! Have you thought about doing a ham one for christmas?

@TheeBurgerDude I've tried a number of different plant-based lunchmeat recipes, and this one beats all the others I've tried. I now make it each week, along with a loaf of homemade bread which gives me sandwiches for at least a few days, all for just a couple of dollars' worth of ingredients. I do cook the roast differently depending on what kind of texture I want for the final product - sometimes I use the Instant Pot, which gives it kind of a "turkey bologna" texture. The Instant Pot method is convenient too, especially in the summer when it's a PITA to run your oven. I did pick up the cookbook, both to have some of your recipes on hand, but also just to show my appreciation for sharing this excellent recipe which has been a real help.

1:38 i think I am just gonna buy tofurkey for the sandwich then 😭 as badly as I want to eat this I do not have a food processor. Maybe when I turn 25 🥲

What if the holiday falls on a Tuesday? I'm trying this and calling it my 'Tuesday roast' 🎉

i'd rather buy it from supermarket... so many ingredients and steps...

Made it and it was great for my first time, not tofurkey chewy though

How do you think it would do in a smoker rather than the oven? Or should I put it in the oven and then smoke it??

Is there a way to prevent Seitan Farts? Am I not cooking it enough?

OMG when I read the title I thought it said vegan roast turkey with Satan 🤣

I hate the after taste of VWG! I’m so glad you have a solution for that in the video. So I’m going to be trying this asap. Also, my friend that I trade plant based recipes with is allergic to gluten (a TRUE allergy - like hives, itching, the whole nine yards). Is there anything that can be used to replace the VWG in this recipe?

Thanks, I needed a recipe for this Thanksgiving.

Okay, HELP ME OUT! I am somebody who will not eat Mushrooms. the LAST thing I want is something else that looks and taste like mushrooms. As a Vegen or even a vegetarian, WHY would you want something that looks and taste like something you don't want? It just does not make sense to me

do you think a meat press could work? the kind that carnists use to make deli slices from ham? i’m trying to forgo disposable kitchen items like saran wrap, aluminum foil, parchment paper, etc..

Awesome. Thanks. I never understood why all the recipes for this type of roast or deli seitan makes a point about the importance of using super extra firm or very dry well pressed tofu then proceed to blend it with added water. I just use normal extra firm from the package without any pressing and cut back a little on the added water. Seems to work just fine. Do you have any thoughts on why it would matter?

I tried to make this using an immersion blender with a processor attachment - way to small! I was able to get some of it combined in batches but I ended up with tofu chunks I'm also too lazy to knead and kneading liquid smoke sucks! I think the autolyse method might be key here. It's also really difficult to tell if it has the right amount of water vs the right amount of kneading

Hey Burger dude, I'm currently a raw vegan for 100 days and I will transition to being just vegan. Watching your cooking videos has been making me really excited to be vegan (thank you), but the food I'm been missing the most since starting my vegan journey has been cheese pizza. I was wondering if you could do a New York-style cheesing pizza recipe

Hi Burgerdude, quick question! I’m planning to make the deli-slicable turkey recipe you have on your website but in the ingredients, for black pepper, the amount is only listed as “a lot”. Do you have a rough estimate of how much that is? I don’t use black pepper often so I’m not sure if that means something like 1 tsp or 1 Tbsp 😅

I've tried making seitan a couple of times but never liked the taste or the texture. The recipe I used had me simmer it in broth or stock and let it sit in the broth overnight. I don't remember ever baking it and the recipe didn't call for tofu. I think I'll give this recipe a shot.

Would soy sauce be a substitute for MSG?

do you think it could get extra crispy if we wrapped it in rice paper, soaked in a cornstarch slurry before the second bake with the glaze

Quick question ❓ if you use the extra firm tofu would have to squiz out the water since you say to add water?

Wish finding that gluten stuff was easy.

l love satein l make chicken satein it's delicious 🎉

Very cool! I was thinking if you'd make a Thanksgiving video

Hey! I made a test portion just now and there seems be a discrepancy on the video vs written recipe The video calls to put the glazed roast at 450 F, which is probably how I burned the sugar lol The written recipe says 350 F, which seems more correct Love your channel!

Thanks for this! I like the idea of seitan with a majority of tofu vs gluten. Well definitely try!

This looks like the celebration loafs that they sell. Maybe try adding some stuffing to the center😊

I'm definitely making this since trader joes discontinued their vegan holiday roast this year

Is the tapioca necessary? What does it do to the recipe? Looks like a great recipe though!

I just do the rouix with almond milk and seasoning. Makes a good gravy

I might make this even though I don't celebrate thanksgiving, haha! Been a vegetarian for 3 years now and have yet to try any sort of seitan!

Nice! I was already planning on using the deli slice recipe for our meal this year. That gravy looks yummy too.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Do you have any suggestions for freezing. I am single and will not have any guests or family, but I would love to make this.

I love your channel!!

YES SIR!!! Thank You!!

That looks sooo delicious! 💜

Fantastic! Thanks for sharing. Definitely going to try it

This looks so good. I saved it so that I can make it later maybe for X-mas

How come you call it vegan butter, isnt that just margarine? is there non-vegan margarine out there?

MSG! Yesss please!!

I mixed everything except the VWG in the food processor and then switched to my stand mixer, and my dough is very "gritty" and not stretchy 😢

Made both the roast and gravy for Thanksgiving dinner Both received compliments! Veg friends said the roast was better than gardein, tofurky and field roast Thank you!

I’m not vegan but most of the stuff you make looks delicious

Does it freeze well? Would it be better to freeze the dough before or after cooking?

So you don't have to rinse the flour!???

Oh mannn.... I really wanted to make your pepper turkey recipe, and that glaze looks like it makes it even better! I am curious, though, does the liquid smoke make it too smokey? I'm not really crazy about liquid smoke as it seems to overpower easily.

I made this it was delicious. My brother and nephew both loved it and they eat meat. I added 1 tsp sage to the dough and substituted corn starch for tapioca starch.

😋

Dddddamn man that looks good. It’s time to save some animals and go vegan.

So are some of these recipe videos good for beginners?

I LOVE YOU DUDE

So in the video you say 450 for 8. And on your blog you say 350. Which is it?!

No way ugh

I consistently find your information to be insightful and helpful. Thank you

thanks!

My oh my, that looked delicious!!

Thanks!! Looks great gonna try it this week!

Yuuuum

Hail seitan

Turned out mostly well, the gravy is amazing (used 1:1 nutritional yeast and mushroom powder for a bit less mushroomy taste and the taste was just what I wanted), added maybe a bit too much water into the seitan, but it still worked fine. However the glaze was a failure for me, not sure how to prevent it, but it basically turns into a rock solid sugar or when I was more careful for the second time, a sugary paste that can't be spread. Took a pinch of it out of the pan to let it cool down, turned out to be slimy but still very spreadable, so I took it of the heat, but as soon as I poured it into a ceramic bowl to cool down, it just solidified and separated from the oil. I rarely work with that much sugar and I guess it might be a temperature issue, but if anyone has any tips, I'd be very thankful.

The thing that always confuses me in these seitan loaf recipes is that some people boil them, some people steam them, and some people bake them, and everyone seems to insist that their way is the way to go, and I'm really not sure if there's any difference.
