I had an amazing experience here!! I had a gluten free bun with my brisket, and no tummy issues (means there was no traces of gluten!). They ask if it’s an allergy or preference, and make sure to keep things separate, at least for allergies.
Very happy and confident with Joe’s. My daughter is celiac. They assured me they used a different fryer for fries. Also notified the line it was an allergy and they changed gloves. Love having this as a safe option in KC.
Surprisingly a lot of great options! All meats and sauces are GF. They have GF buns. Half of the sides are GF.
Yum!

I ordered take out over the phone. The person on the phone was super friendly and told me they would put our fries in a separate GF fryer and the kitchen staff would switch out their gloves. I got the zman with no onion rings and on a GF bun. As always Joe's is amazing and they were so nice too!
Lots of options for gluten free. When ordering I was asked if gluten free was preference or allergy. She shouted to the cooks my order was an allergy. Not sure what/if extra precautions were taken in the kitchen but I didn’t have any reactions.
Staff at the counter was very knowledgeable and had a laminated list of all allergens on the menu. Dedicated fryer so GF fries!!! All sauces are GF and so is the fry seasoning. GF bun available. I ordered the famous Z-man sandwich minus the onion ring on a GF bun and it was delicious! Had a side of fries and the spicy slaw. It’s been over 4 hours and no symptoms so I’m thrilled. (I am celiac with lots of FODMAP sensitivities but thankfully not garlic or onion).
Great food! Had dairy free and gluten free options. Staff was very knowledgeable about all allergies, they even had a chart by the register. All sauces were gluten free as well! Highly recommended a visit
They do a good job on GF. Fries are in dedicated fryer. GF bun crumbled but that is normal.
Checked the allergy menu online before heading here. Felt good based on that and the reviews here on the app. Got the brisket with a gf bun. Told the person taking orders I'm gf and she said, no problem they'll change gloves for you, and yelled back to the kitchen as she keyed in my order. Could definitely tell it was a gf bun compared to my friend who had a regular bun. Mine was bigger but definitely a bit crumbly as I ate, but I didn't mind since the meat was so delicious. It's so fast paced in there so I was a little surprised that I didn't get sick, or the wrong bun or something. Would definitely go here again and try some fries next time too.
They have breadless options, GF fries and GF buns. They are very gluten aware.
Loved the food! The bun crumbles BUT I can’t remember the last time I had gluten free bbq food. I’ve been here twice, got the brisket and haven’t been sick. They ask when ordering if it’s an allergy vs a preference, which makes me feel safer.
They do a great job with gluten free. Dedicated fryer for the fries. Most of the menu is available gluten free!
Gf fries and buns are available and person taking order asked if it was for allergy vs preference so that they could handle correctly. Great bbq and happy to enjoy fries along with our meal.
Delicious! Eat here every time I pass through the area. Lots of gf choices.
They did not change their gloves after being asked twice and my daughter (celiac) then refused to eat. We went at a very busy time so maybe it would have been better had we chosen another time.
Celiac safe and delish! Staff was well Educated and accommodating, changed gloves, fries are separate, most sides are safe and gf buns available. What a yummy treat!
Great Service Great Food. Lots of Gluten free. Buns, meat, sauce and side. Best fries anywhere.
They change gloves and have a dedicated space for fries. The bun in pretty decent and soft but kind of thick. They call out allergy down the line and everyone knows the protocol of clean, change gloves and don’t add bread. Felt pretty confident here and my stomach is fine after!
Awesome gem. Had the Hogomania with side of gf fries - yes, in dedicated fryer. Staff even made sure to change gloves to avoid cross contamination. Great find driving through!!!

They have gluten free buns and it’s only $1 up charge. Bbq sauce is gluten free and most sides. They are good about cross contamination. I had the burnt ends dinner with the seasonal street corn side. No reaction.
Great food—celiac friendly
So delicious!! They have separate fryers for Gluten free never had a problem there!
No one could tell me for sure what (if anything) was gluten free and everything was pre-seasoned I am sensitive to nightshades and I understand they want to protect their recipes but they wouldn't tell me anything and I was left with iced tea for dinner, watching everyone else eat.
I was surprised to find they had so many great tasting gluten free options. The brisket, ribs and sausage were smoky, flavorful and downright delicious. I was in barbecue heaven. The service was super fast and friendly even on a crowded Friday night. I can't wait to go back.
