Apple Valley BBQ

Have to ask for menu with gf options, but several choices. Had smoked chicken with pear Cole slaw and garlic Parmesan fries. Generous portions and delicious bbq sauces—best of all, no reaction!

Not celiac safe. Talked to the server about my daughter's celiac disease and she said "she's good here", then continued to ramble on about how she has people with celiac disease come in all the time and they're fine, but really "it just depends how sensitive she is", then continued on about how "sometimes we cook our fritters in the same oil, but she'll be fine, really. Unless she's really sensitive. Up to you if you want to risk it." um. Wow. Well, we were all starving and they insisted the BBQ was totally ok, so she ended up getting the bbq lunch with salad for the side. The pork ribs were almost all fat. Then she got a headache and tired and fell asleep in the car. So yeah, not safe. Don't risk it.

Celiac friendly?

No

Food was spectacular! Lots of options that are safe. Great BBQ sauces...They even had a gluten free dairy free German chocolate cake!

We drove by accidently and had to drive 22 miles back around. The best gf menu I have ever ate. Very friendly and helpful staff. Manager makes almost everything herself. So good.

Awesome. Wonderful quality food and service; super nice folks! Best pulled pork. Their bbq sauces are very good and totally gf. Plenty of selections for gf, and all labeled. This is truly a must stop.

What a great find! Clearly marked gf menu with several options. So yummy we had dinner and came back for lunch the next day! I had smoked meatloaf w/mashed potatoes and spicy green beans for dinner and pulled pork w/black bean soup and pear coleslaw for lunch. I have celiac disease and felt safe eating here. Fries marked gf on lunch menu but it’s not a dedicated fryer.
