The pulled pork was to die for!!! As others have said, the meat selections are gluten free. We got 1 lb of the pork and 1 lb of the chicken. I didn’t ask about ribs because I wasn’t planning on getting them. Fries are safe. Poutine was marked gluten free on the menu. But honestly… the pulled pork is where it’s at. Absolutely delish!

I wanted to get some take out and saw quite a few reviews from fellow celiacs and decided to give it a try. I ordered myself a large poutine, and a pulled pork sandwich. I also got a small poutine for a friend and another sandwich for my partner (im the only celiac). I noticed that they put both poutines and my sandwich in the same bag, the sandwich was labelled gf, and the small poutine had “poutine” written on it. my large one didnt. im not sure if there was a mix up, but i landed very ill an hour or two after diving into my large poutine. I really wanted to have a great experience. unfortunately im severely sensitive

We went in to book some catering for our son's wedding and spoke with the owner (who was awesome!). He was so easy to talk to, accommodating and had great ideas on ways to keep our celiac guests safe from wheat cross contamination for the pulled pork sandwiches. (Ps...he also has gf buns!) I know I can be a bit stressy about it, having been glutened before at other places, but he didn't bat an eye and was just happy to help. He told us that all the meat and sauces are gluten free with the exception of the ribs (and only because he's still looking for a guaranteed gf source of garlic powder). They made us up a sampler of brisket, chicken and pulled pork and every one of them was amazing!!!! He also let is know that their fries and poutine are gluten free as well!!! Their prices for catering were really reasonable which is amazing, and we are so excited that we found this great restaurant!

Amazing bbq gem. Staff are knowledgeable and there’s a dedicated fryer. I had smoked bbq chicken on a gf bun with fries and gravy. Best meal in awhile.
