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.

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 ;)

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,

Mariann

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
