Char-grilled Tenderloin

I'm new to the gluten-free lifestyle. I'm going out tonight & saw the restaurant's menu online. They have a char-grilled tenderloin. Obviously I would get it with no bun, but does anyone know if that would be gluten-free?

thanks

I would recommend calling the restuarant. While one would think that there would be nothing wrong with a char-grilled tenderloin, without seeing the ingredients no one can really give you an answer. Hopefully the restaurant prepares all or most of their food there, and will be able to give you some suggestions.

what exactly should I ask them?

I realize this is a bit late, but perhaps for future use. When I contact a restaurant I explain to them that I must avoid gluten, which is in wheat, barley, rye and oats. I either ask them about specific ingredients, if I have something in mind, or ask them if they have any food that would be safe for me to eat.

If it is a place that actually makes most of their food on-site, the chef will usually tell you what to avoid or what is safe, as they are aware of the ingredients going in. Often, I've had people offer to leave out an ingredient if it's something that either contains gluten or if made off-site and cannot be verified.

In a place where the food generally comes pre-made, Applebee's, for example, I have found that I have a much harder time getting any sort of information at all, and special requests usually cannot be met, so I avoid these places. (And their food is not usually that great, either)

      Okay, Thank you!! I already have thyroid problems and my total iron binding capacity is high which usually means low iron but everything else was normal, lower end but “normal” my hair falls out and my nails won’t grow without breaking but nothing is being treated iron wise.  I have started having palpitations and chest pain,  both of which seem to be attributed to exposure to gluten. I’ve also been having a lot of nightmares, anxiety, numbness and tingling, brain fog, spotting between cycles and acne. Idk if all those are relatable to gluten / celiac but I’m concerned  I’ve finally tipped my body/ immune system into a bad place. Is there anyway to detox and heal faster or treat...

      @Alibu, Start with this study... High-dose thiamine supplementation improves glucose tolerance in hyperglycemic individuals: a randomized, double-blind cross-over trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23715873/ "Conclusion/interpretation: Supplementation with high-dose thiamine may prevent deterioration in fasting glucose and insulin, and improve glucose tolerance in patients with hyperglycemia. High-dose thiamine supplementation may prevent or slow the progression of hyperglycemia toward diabetes mellitus in individuals with impaired glucose regulation." They used 100 mg of thiamine three times a day.  They don't say which kind of thiamine was used. ...

      @knitty kitty I see, thank you!!  Yes, basically the biopsy just said "normal villous architecture."  It didn't give any kind of Marsh score at all, but it sounds like it would be a 0 based on the biopsy report, which is why he's saying it's Latent or Potential celiac.  It's just weird because I know in Europe if I was a child, they wouldn't even do the biopsy, so how does this system make any sense?? I have had an A1c and it's normal.  I do know that I have insulin resistance, however, so there's that. Wow, thank you for all this information!!!  I have a lot of reading to do!

      That is one issue but the bigger issue may be the human tendency to rationalize it all away without an official diagnosis such that you keep falling off the gluten free bandwagon. But there is the option of going for the gluten challenge in a more robust way and getting retested.

      Welcome to the forum!  Do you mean that you eat food from fryers that also cook gluten items, and you don't have serious issues? If so, the problem with this approach is that, depending on how often you do this, you could be causing villi damage if you have celiac disease (you haven't mentioned whether or not you have celiac disease), which can lead to more serious issues later.
