🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Meats: pulled pork, brisket, turkey, and chicken are commonly treated as GF when ordered through the GF process.
  • Fries: hand-cut fries cooked in a dedicated GF fryer.
  • Sauces: most BBQ sauces are GF; verify with the GF menu to avoid the one noted non-GF option (Texas Twang).
  • GF menu: a separate gluten-free menu is available at the register; an allergen menu is also described in reviews and guides.
  • Note: Cornbread is not GF and should be omitted from GF orders.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • Cross-contamination is a real concern at any restaurant honoring gluten-free options. While many guests report safe experiences due to glove changes, surface wiping, separate fryers, and clear communication, there are sporadic reports of contamination or gluten exposure.
  • A few recent reviews describe being advised about GF orders but still experiencing cross-contact or illness, underscoring that nothing is 100% risk-free and vigilance is essential.
  • The overall pattern strongly favors careful handling and GF-specific processes, but diners with extremely high sensitivity should remain cautious and advocate for explicit, in-the-moment precautions (eg, confirm fryer usage, cutting boards, and sauce safety).
