There is not a separate fryer and no GF buns but they are very careful and their brisket is awesome.

Changes gloves when preparing sausage. And my son loves the green beans too. All bbq sauces are GF (unless they change)

I enjoyed the pulled pork, potato salad and vinegar coleslaw! It was nice to have the option to try all the sauces too. I would recommend!

Good quality quick bbq, knowledgeable staff and they have a protocol for separation if you ask and all meats and sauces are gluten free and most sides.

Fryer contaminated but they know it. Just ask and it’s good!

Barbecue without a bun and a couple of side options. Sauces are GF too! Stop by Graeters next door for dessert and ask for an allergy scoop to get it from a separate area.

Had lunch here and will definitely be back, all of the meat is gf and if you tell them you have an allergy they will change gloves and leave your meat “naked”. All of the sauces are gf except for the chipotle mayo, and they do have an allergen menu that you can reference. Many of the sides are gf and the staff was knowledgeable and accommodating!
