Large GF menu, but beware…I ordered the baked beans because they were “safe”. After eating about 1/4 of them, I found a random macaroni noodle in it.

My husband and I split the Rib Sampler for Two. The waitress wasn't sure if the dry rub was gluten free but all of the sauces were safe to eat. We had the collards, beans, and potato salad for our sides. Great food, great service, and I didn't get sick!

They have a separate gluten-free menu. They use a common fryer, so avoid anything fried if you have highly sensitivity. Ribs and collards were DELICIOUS! Server was very nice and knowledgeable. There was an error and the kitchen sent my food out with cornbread, but she caught it and had it remade for me. Highly recommend!

We just had a fantastic gluten free bbq rib dinner there. Had the loaded baked potato too. ALL their sauces are gluten free (labeled on bottles) and all their dry rubs are GF as well. Highly recommend. Alissa was excellent and knew her GF stuff!

They could not find the GF menu. So I got the salad and they left off the croutons but gave me a different dressing than what I asked for. I called, since I got take out, and no one could tell me if the dressing they gave me was gluten free. I ate a very dry salad but the smoked chicken was good.

Our waitress said there wasn't a gluten free menu (could be due to covid) but she did get us an allergen printout to reference. Our daughter had the smoked wings, kids ribs and apple slices and a lemonade. She thought it was delicious and had no reactions.

Family had several chicken/wing and rib combos. Great food and lots of it. Wings are better than ribs. Waitstaff very helpful. GF menu is large. We can have most meats, sides, and sauces.

No reaction, felt fine. Food is middling, not great. I was surprised because people had bragged about it but it was very average. While it seemed to be safe I probably won't go back.

Decent sized GF menu. Told waitress of allergy and was told gloves were changed, and a separate cook was making my meal. Felt safe eating here but honestly food was just ok

Pretty fair amount of choices on gf menu. The meat is delicious (I had brisket), and I really liked the coleslaw. I substituted vegetables for beans & was disappointed to get a very small cup of warmed up but still totally raw broccoli and carrots from a bag. Overall pretty good for barbecue and I didn't get sick. Yay!

My husband and I stopped in for a weekday to-go lunch order. The guy at the counter was busy, and really needed more help between seating tables and a bunch of take out orders coming in all at once. They do have a separate GF menu. I was lax in my ordering/questioning, which is my fault. I ordered a loaded potato that comes with a side salad. My husband, not Celiac, ordered a sandwich. Once we arrived at our destination turns out my salad had croutons on it. I couldn't eat it, but in fairness I didn't double check how it was prepared. All the other food was really tasty. I'd go back, but would be more vigilant so make sure it was prepared correctly.

Separate gluten free menu. The stuffed potato skin appetizer with pulled pork was amazing! I had the lunch sampler with ribs, wings and pulled pork. The sampler was served with beans and cole slaw which were OK. All of there BBQ sauces on the table were all labeled GF.

First let me say I did not give this 5 stars because it is not exclusively GF. There is still a risk. That said...I called the other day to inquire about GF options. Freddy was very understanding and said ask for him when we came, he even told me his schedule. They brought my daughter's food out separate from ours, they gave us new unopened bottles of BBQ sauce to use because they refill the bottles kept on the table. The baked potato is on the GF menu but Freddy said he was concerned because they are prepared ahead of time. He caught our server as he brought the plate out. He took it back and brought her food out on a new plate and substituted apple slices from the kids menu. she ate a half rack of dry rub ribs, baked beans and the stuffed potatoes from the appetizer menu. The food was delicious! *I waited until the following day to post this watching for a reaction. She did NOT get glutened :)

The restaurant has multiple options that are naturally gluten free along with all of there bbq sauces. The servers were extremely knowledgeable on all ingredients in the foods and where she didn't she confirmed( I have more than just gluten allergy). I ordered a slab of ribs with fries and no corn bread. They do not have a dedicated frier of that is a concern. Most of the menu is gluten-free normally or can easily be adjusted to be gluten-free.
