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)

We eat here often and hubby has never had a reaction. He also doesn’t do well with some cuts of meat/steak due to swallowing problems, but has no issues with their ribs or brisket - they are super tender. I’m from the land of BBQ in Texas and this is my favorite local BBQ place.

Got the pulled pork, baked beans, and collard greens with the original sauce. Told them I had a gluten allergy when I ordered in the store and made sure all of the items were gluten free when I ordered. I still had a reaction so there must have been some kind of cross contamination that happened. I usually don’t have a reaction with bbq so this was very surprising and sad when I swelled up and got sick.
