All charcoal briquettes that I know of -- Kingsford and such -- have wheat starch in them. Some people use them anyway and put their stuff on aluminum foil.

I prefer to use natural charcoal, which is nothing more than charred wood. It tastes better, burns better and hotter, and lasts longer. You can often find it at hardware stores, Walmart (usually only in the summer), or kitchen specialty stores. Whole Foods also has it.

It usually will say something like natural or "all wood" charcoal. It has nothing at all but wood and it looks nothing like charcoal briquettes. It looks like pieces of burned wood.

Be ready when you light the grill. We find it lights up pretty quickly!

Wow, that was interesting! My husband has doubted the need for natural charcoal, saying everything would burn off, & I guess he was right in a way. He's resisted getting the natural stuff because of $$$ (& cussedness...?)so I'm glad there's a way to use the regular stuff safely.

A plan to use-up my Kingsford. I prefer lump charcoal and lump wood and this will be a nice excuse to spend the extra buck. Mostly I don't want to bother cleaning my grill of all traces of the previous charcoal. That would appear a bit neurotic.

How great to hear from richard:

I TOTALLY agree. Forget the "brickettes", at some high end grocery stores or Lowes, Home Depot all have "natural wood charcoal". It is just charded wood. It does not burn like brickettes, you just add to it for you next grilling. Also, buy some hichory wood chips, soak them in water and put then on the wood chips before you grill your steak, salmon, pork, tuna...... Jim also soaks a pecan board or cedar in water and cooks on the board. The cedar/pecan steam cooks into your meat/seafood..........and it is to die for.

Write and ask for directions if you truely want to have a cullinary experience on the grill.

Thanks richard for clicking in....long time no hear. :):)

I definately got glutened from Kingsford charcoal before. That must have been the batch that used wheat!! I should add that my hubby generally is not patient enough to wait for the charcoal to burn as they said in the article, but I would not take the chance again. I prepared all the food, so there was nothing else that could have contaminated it.

If I remember correctly... please double check me on this... if you have a Wegmans around you.. their charcoal is gluten free..

      I've not heard of the DNA test I will definitely look into that. And I did not know that the neuropathy was symptoms of vitamin deficiency. I have been trying to get on a good vitamin regimen. Thank you!

      My GI Doctor took blood work and said my Iron levels were actually high. But they took my blood a couple weeks after my infusion so I'm thinking that's why they were showing so high, but they knew I had the infusions. The infusions did help greatly but I am also on an Iron pill that I can instantly notice if I have not taken it for a few days.  Yes, I have read up on that! Thank you so much! I sure that will be fun! Hahaha

      @shadycharacter, did you mean to reply to another post about sourdough bread? The present thread isn't about that.

      Thanks for your response. It seems to be only with gluten, illness, or vaccination.

      Welcome to the forum, @LimpToeTheTimeless Bone growth plates close in the late teens to early twenties, so it's doubtful you'll grow much taller, but you may start to bulk up in muscle.  Remember to boost your absorption of vitamins and minerals needed to build muscle by eating a nutritionally dense diet and supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals, especially Thiamine B1, to counteract the malabsorption caused by Celiac Disease. Keep us posted on your progress!
