What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- All meats and sauces are gluten-free. This includes core barbecue proteins and their accompanying sauces.
- Some meals described as fully gluten-free included brisket, slab of ribs, pulled pork, with both original and spicy sauces.
- Reported gluten-free sides in a positive group order included cole slaw, potato salad, green beans, and chili.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not dedicated gluten-free, so cross-contamination risk exists in general operations.
- Some items (notably fries) may be prepared in shared fryers, increasing cross-contact potential for gluten-containing ingredients.
- While staff have shown knowledge and willingness to adjust gloves and utensils, cross-contact remains a possibility depending on how orders are handled and prepared.
