I asked for the gluten free menu and they gave me a sheet of paper that listed the Barbecue Meats that were safe - Texas style beef brisket, sliced beef brisket, honey barbecue ham, tender turkey breast, old recipe sausage, and Spivey cheddar sausage. I don’t eat red meat so that left only turkey. Then it listed the safe Sides - coleslaw, potato salad, green beans with bacon, Caesar salad, chips, and waffle iron fires. The chips were a bag of Lay’s that said gluten free although not certified and they said this location didn’t have the fries.
My server did wash his hands, use a separate tray for my order (separate from my husband’s that contained gluten), and put gloves on. It was presumably safe although also disappointing to have three slabs of pressed turkey and soggy green beans with bacon I tried to avoid.
Note: I have celiac but no immediate reactions so I can’t be sure when I get exposed.
The service was excellent. Staff and manager were very accommodating and generous when we asked for celiac friendly options. Food was carefully prepared fresh and away from the other food to avoid cross contamination, and a list of ingredients was provided so we could select GF options for side dishes. Great tasting barbecue. Outstanding experience.
Dickey’s Manager, Jeremy, was extremely helpful and knowledgeable of all food allergies. He gave us an allergen menu which included gluten free options. All meats and some sides are gluten free. Explained that they thoroughly clean a dedicated area of the kitchen to prepare the gluten free items offered. Great food also!!
I explained that my daughter is celiac, and the guy behind the counter did not know what it was, but the guy next to him did, and explained that he just uses a different cutting board, a fresh knife, and fresh gloves, which he was willing to do. We ordered the jalapeno sausage, ribs, and a baked potato. Sausage was the tastiest. Seems safe. We looked at their allergen info online and chose our foods that way.
Most items on the menu are gf but you have to ask to see the items that are marked. I had brisket topped with cheddar and onions on a baked potato. All meat and sauces are gf. Caesar salad has gluten so beware but other salads are fine. Sides are all gf also. The baked potatoes are HUGE!. Definitely a place to come back to for bbq
