Smokin Sloes Southern BBQ- Gluten Free Menu!

Smokin Sloes Southern BBQ in Northport- Now offers a Gluten Free Menu!
I went there this weekend, and was amazed by the choices! They just had GF menus printed up to make ordering easier, and the owner was very friendly and when speaking to him about the GF menu, and explaining how the corn bread can NOT go on my plate, he said that they are working on a button in the computer to alert the staff to someone who is eating GF (although, the corn breads were all each individually wrapped, which was a plus to limit the contamination), but I thought it was great that he was bein pro-active. I mentioned to him about the GFRAP, so hopefully he will want to become a part of it so that he becomes more educated in cross-contamination issues! It was a great change of pace to be able to eat somewhere "different".

Hi, thanks for the tip! Check out Sweet Karma Bakery in East Meadow. I just tasted samples for the three-tier wedding cake they're making for me and they were FABULOUS (Chocolate bottom, Vanilla middle and Tiramisu top!). The owner sanitizes the kitchen like crazy every time he works gluten free (they have non-gluten-free items as well)and I've eaten about a dozen individual treats there and never felt a symptom. They're also completely affordable -- none of the items cost more than their non-GF counterparts! Thanks for your blog, just moved back to LI and it's a huge help!
