B-b-q Sauce

Hey everyone!

I made gluten-free BBQ the other night for dinner using original Bull's Eye by Kraft. My hubby really thought it was gross. I've done several searches for BBQ sauces, but I was wondering if any of you have favorites that you could recommend.

We kind of like BBQ sauce with a little more of a vinigar "kick" than what that brand provides. Neither of us is used to super thick/dark sauce. :rolleyes: ...picky, picky, picky ;)

Could I get some suggestions from you all? Much appreciated! -Julie

LOL ~ there is another thread about bbq sauce that must have been written the same time as yours. Here is what I told her... I use KC Masterpiece Original. Make sure it is the original flavor... LAST time I checked it was fine. Some of the other flavors have gluten. I use this bbq all the time with no side effects. I think it has an excellent flavor, but that is me!! :) You will have to let me know what you think. Hope this helps!!! ;)

I use the Honey BBQ by Kraft...that's pretty much the only kind I eat.

Guest imsohungry

Thanks a lot. I have to laugh at my hubby. The other night I made BBQ pork roast, and he really didn't like the sauce I used...so, he "fixed" it. :blink:

Please note: my hubby knows nothing about making BBQ sauce, but nonetheless, he made his own "concoction" of ingrediants :rolleyes: ...and then dipped the roast in it! (good grief!)

I'm trying to avoid having the hubby dig in the fridge and cabnits looking for that "special ingredient." (and ruining another roast). :rolleyes:

Take care all. -Julie ;)

I like sweet baby rays the best!!

Bone suckin sauce is also good for things like pork chips on the grill.

-Jessica :rolleyes:

Guest imsohungry

You guys are great! Thank you for your suggestions. :)

My hubby decided tonight to buy the sauce by the "color"...he likes the lighter/thinner sauce...good grief...a man and his BBQ :rolleyes:

So, we bought a brand called Williamson Brothers sauce. It listed its ingrediants plainly and I called to make sure that the "spices" didn't contain gluten and she said that it didn't. So...I guess we'll give this a try.

If this doesn't work (or I get sick feeling), we'll go back to sampling other brands of Kraft....there is a whole variety of Kraft that I noticed tonight in Wal-Mart ;)

Well ladies...I appreciate your feedback. B) -Julie

I work right next to Williamson Brother's Restaurant and they assured me that the sauce was safe, it's really good sauce, but I also really really like Annie's Naturals Smoky Maple BBQ sauce. Several of Annie's bbq sauces are labeled gluten-free... there are a few that aren't though, so make sure you look for the gluten free label if you buy Annie's.

I own a restaurant and sell a case of baby back ribs most weeks. I wouldn't think of letting anything but Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce touch my ribs and it is gluten-free.....it is part of the reason that people come here and that they tell others about our ribs---the other is that they are so tender that they fall off the bone. I buy the sauce by the gallon/case. I could work for them promoting their sauce, I think it is so great. Barbara

Okay, Barbara, where do you live (and work)???

I like Sonny's Barbeque's Sweet Sauce. I just e-mailed them to reverify that it is still gluten-free. We also use Kraft Honey BBQ. If you like the stronger vinegar flavor, Williamson is probably more to your liking.

Annie's is no longer gluten-free. I am so sad!

I guess distilled vinegar doesn't bother me after all b/c it is in Annie's and I use it normally...or maybe that's why I don't feel good-lol.

In any case I will have to try the Kraft....

I have to put in another vote for Sweet Baby Ray's. It is my favorite. Anytime I try something different I mentally compare the two and nothing beats Sweet Baby Ray's. My husband eats all the reject sauces at our house. He's not picky! :rolleyes:

God bless,

I am SO confused.

I just went to the store.

Kraft Honey BBQ has REGULAR vinegar, not distilled in it.

How is this considered safe?

Yet a lot of people here use it?

I bought Sweet Baby Ray's Hickory.

Has anyone used this and knows it to be safe?

Thanks,

Jennifer

Kraft is one of the brands that does not hide anything on labels. If it contains wheat,rye,barley, oats in any way shape or form then it will say wheat,rye,barley,oats.

Vinegar is not always a no no for celiacs...it just depends on the kind of vinegar

Guest barbara3675

I live and work in Conover, Wisconsin....and the ribs are on the menu every day we are open. Come on in. On Saturdays, they are served with with free onion rings which of course have gluten in them!!!! Sorry, but the ribs are gluten-free. Barbara

I have to come back here and retract my recommendation for Annie's Naturals BBQ sauces... They are NO LONGER GLUTEN FREE. This was verified yesterday 5/20/05 by telephone and on their website. Evidently someone somewhere decided that this product needed to be improved on by adding gluten. I have e-mailed the company a letter stating my disappointment, and would ask that any one else who has enjoyed Annie's sauces consider doing this too. I asked in my letter that they PLEASE try to refrain from "IMPROVING" any more of their currently gluten-free products to the point that they would no longer be gluten-free.

cdford Contributor

Sorry, Barb, but Wisconsin is a little far for this Georgia girl to travel...even for ribs. If I ever get that way, I'll look you up.

Sonny's now has gluten. What a bummer. I really liked their sweet sauce.

jknnej Collaborator

I'm supposed to use Sweet Baby Rays Hickory BBQ sauce tonight. Can you guys confirm for me that it is still gluten-free?

Thanks, Jennifer

PS I will be writing a letter to Annie's!

Last I checked (last year) ALL of Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauces were gluten-free. They still should be.

God bless,

"Bone Suckin' Sauce" is gluten-free and tasty.

I won't eat the Sweet Baby Ray's unless someone here confirms they have eaten it and been fine VERY RECENTLY for a few reasons:

1. It has listed modified food starch, caramel coloring, and many other questionable ingredients.

2. the gluten-free list says it was verified a while back and not recently

3. The people at the company won't call me back and I've called 3 times

I have a bottle of Annie's gluten-free that is the last ones on the store shelf. AFter that I will try kraft.

angel-jd1 Community Regular

I eat sweet baby ray's all the time. I had some just the other day with no issues. LOVE IT!!

-Jessica :rolleyes:

I had some on Saturday on some chicken, and we eat it all the time. No problems here, and I an VERY sensitive to the slightest amount of gluten.

God bless,

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior? 
    • trents
      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
