@oregongirl Gluten is a plant protein in grain, and not in meat, however if that meat is ladled with gravy that was thickened with wheat flour, there is your gluten. Gluten can be in seasonings, in vinegar (if made from wheat), vanilla, etc. If you have plain meat that wasn't cooked on the same spot on a grill where they seasoned something, it will be gluten free. Ask them to use a different clean pan to cook your food. You have to ask questions because a lot of people don't understand and put seasonings in there by habit, or a pickle on the plate with gluten containing vinegar, or the food is cross contaminated by a serving spoon or the grill. Soups can contain flour as a thickener. Ask the chef to see an ingredient list, and keep a journal of what makes you feel ill, and then you need to find out what is in it. Keep a list of what you are allergic too because that is the only way to figure it out unless you want to go through food allergy testing with a doctor.
