4 Rivers Smokehouse

I like this place. Friendly staff, decent BBQ, and very few of the sides and none of the meats contain gluten, so low risk of cross contamination. I’ve eaten here several times without symptoms, and with high confidence.

My wife is a celiac and extremely gluten sensitive. We have eaten here weekly for months and she has never had a problem! The servers change their gloves prior to getting her food and it all works well!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

High risk of cross-contamination!!!! They did not have a very good understanding of gluten-free or cross-contamination. The girl waiting on me gave serious attitude when I asked for side dishes from the back. I had already seen them touch bread then touch serving spoons for sides. Then they touched bread, reached into the meats, and then placed meat on a bun. They denied this when I asked for meat from the back even though she had done it right in front of me. The cashier apologized for the other staff and said it had been a long day. He comped our drinks, but I hardly ate and immediately took a Benadryl to help slow any reaction. The girl who gave me attitude also went behind the kitchen wall (I could still see her and hear her) and told everyone what I had said. I could see all their reactions and it made me very uncomfortable. I do NOT recommend eating here!

Celiac friendly?

No

2nd time they made my tray I refused. Gluten in 2 trays even though I repeatedly said I eat GF because I have too.beware, watch your tray.

The food was amazing and had no reaction, they were willing to change their gloves. I got the Six Shooter.

Celiac diner, very sensitive to cross contamination and we had a great meal here! The bbq beans and coleslaw sides were delicious, we enjoyed the brisket, pulled pork and then loaded baked potato!

Meats and sauces GF. Clear explanations on website. Solid BBQ at a decent price and even has vegan options. Possible contamination risk when serving rolls etc if not advised prior, but overall feels pretty safe with the meats served by ladles.

I'm sorry to say that I had a different experience than others did here. The server changed her gloves and I ordered salad with pulled chicken. I had a reaction to the chicken and suspect the spices are not safe.

Absolutely perfect for celiac. They changed gloves several times and made sure everything was safe for me. They have a list of everything for you also.
