It is! I effectively used it as a pulled p*rk substitute here. I got some canned chili beans that already come in a sauce, but I added some extra stuff to give it more of a kick, and that includes barbecue sauce, agave, sriracha, dijon mustard, nutritional yeast, garlic salt, and soy sauce. It sounds salty, and it is, but if you just keep adding barbecue sauce and/or agave until it doesn't taste too damn salty, you'll be good.
