What kind of flavor were you looking for in the seitan? I don't usually marinate it because it can get gooey/chewy in texture.

I freeze my baked seitan all the time--without broth--and it's fine. I use this recipe, or a variation there of, and I usually double it, so there is plenty to freeze:

Good luck and have fun!

I also freeze my seitan all the time and I use the boil method and the recipe from VwaV. I've never tried to freeze this recipe, but I imagine it would work fine.

I also made these a while ago, but they just didn't do it for me. I was thinking about trying them again with a different bbq sauce (as that was a big part of why we didn't like them).

I haven't tried those but I really like the Baked Seitan in Sweet and Sour Orange sauce. And so does my omni husband, he asks for it all the time. I actually planned to make that recipe with bbq sauce on it instead next time.

It's from the same place: http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/2007/05/seitan-baked-in-sweet-and-sour-orange.html

And that orange sauce is to die for. Soooooooo good. It's on my list again this week :)

I actually really liked this recipe - I doubled the liquid smoke, though.

I also found that if I overcooked it, the flavour seemed to disappear. For me, I don't have a grill, so I cooked it for 15-20 min, then added the sauce, then cooked for another 5-10 min.

Also, I used a honey-garlic sauce. Was very yum.
