What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Fries prepared in a dedicated gluten-free fryer.
- Meats, including pulled pork, brisket, turkey, chicken, and sausages, described as gluten-free in multiple accounts.
- Gluten-free sauces (most of them GF; verify for any sauce that might not be GF).
- Gluten-free menu available at the counter; staff can confirm GF options and sauces.
- Items identified as safe when GF orders are clearly communicated, with kitchen staff often being notified and interventions (glove changes, wipe-downs) performed to maintain safety.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- A minority of diners report illness or cross-contamination even after stating GF orders; these incidents appear to be isolated but real.
- Cornbread is a frequent non-GF item that must be avoided on GF plates; several accounts mention removing it or inadvertently receiving it.
- Some sauces can contain gluten; in a few inputs, particular sauces (e.g., Texas Twang) are flagged as not GF; double-check the GF sauce list when ordering.
- Busy times can lead to lapses in communication or prep; clear, repeated reminders about the GF order help mitigate this risk.
