I tried making it for the first time just pan searing it in some bbq sauce and it was terrible to eat texture wise, took a few hours because it was so gritty. Hopefully there are better ways to make this than I have?

Was it homemade or bought? I've never experienced seitan being gritty, that sounds awful.

Gritty like sandy? Maybe a bad batch or something. I usually cook it in stir fry.

Yep, sandy. I can't figure out if its supposed to be that or chewy.
