Is My Grill Gluten Contaminated

Grilling season is soon upon us. Is it possible to get gluten off a grill? I don't think we've used any barbeque sauce on this grill but my husband did make hamburgers with some oatmeal added to them. Will I high enough temperature burn that off? I know I can grill my food on foil but would like the flavor my meat would get by cooking directly on the grill.

If you ant to be VERY careful do the aluminum foil thing, but I would heat it to the max and then scrub with a brush. Then keep it gluten-free after that. You should be fine.

Not knowing what your actual grill part is made from, is it possible to use oven cleaner on it? I'd check the manual that came with it just to make sure you don't ruin it...or it is possible to buy a replacement part for it so you can still use it?

When I was in Wal-Mart yesterday, I saw Easy-Off Grill Cleaner (not to be used on exterior, interior or components). It's made specifically for the grill rack thingies (it's located by the oven cleaners in the store I was in)

I second Easy Off. We used it to de-gluten our grill, one of the few items we didn't all-out replace when we went gluten-free. Make sure you clean the outside (not with easy off), also, because gluteny hands may have touched there, too.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
