Texas Roadhouse used to have a gluten free menu. They no longer have one available.

Could there be gluten, yes. The steak may have been marinaded and there is a good chance of cross contamination.

....hope not though.

I've found eating out at steakhouses to be some of the best experiences we've had. We (it is my daughter who is gluten-free) ask for a steak that is not marinated and just cooked w/ salt and pepper. Also, baked potatoes are usually a good substitute for a rice dish you might be unsure of. They are usually kept in a warmer and have little chance to come into contact with gluten. The veggie dishes are usually safe as well.

We haven't gone to TX Roadhouse, but we have eaten at Lone Star Steakhouse a few times with continued success as well.

I have a copy of their old (Jan 2006) gluten free menu, and here is an excerpt:

Hearty Steaks - Request that your meal be prepared w/o grill shortening

Sirloin Steak

Ft. Worth Ribeye

T-bone Steak

New York Strip

Dallas Fillet

Sirloin Kabob w/o seasoned rice

Filet Medallions w/o seasoned rice

Road Kill

Prime Rib

So this implies that the seasoned rice is not gluten-free, and the grill shortening that they would use to prepare all the steaks (unless you order without) is also not gluten-free.

I called the corporate office a couple of weeks ago and was told that they "removed their gluten-free menu because they have changed some of their recipes, and encourage those who are gluten intolerant to NOT dine at Texas Roadhouse". If you want to call, their number is 1-800-TEX-ROAD

Last time I ate at Texas Roadhouse (about two months ago) I was informed by the manager that they dip all their potatoes and sweet potatoes in bacon fat before cooking! YUCK!!

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By K6315 · Posted

      Thank you so much Trents (Scott?)! I have started working with a dietitian and did a deep research dive as soon as I got the diagnosis. I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in the withdrawal process - it gives me hope that, although I have felt unwell recently, I just need to be patient (not a strong suit). I have printed the article you sent and will look at it more closely. Thanks again!

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @K6315! Gluten withdrawal typically lasts for a period of a few weeks. But there is a real learning curve involved in actually attaining to a gluten free dietary state. Much more is involved than just cutting out major sources of gluten such as bread and pasta. It's all the places that gluten is hidden in the food supply that is difficult to ferret out, like soy sauce and canned tomato soup, canned chili and canned pork n' beans, some "lite" pancake syrups, potato salad, flavorings, etc., etc. Gluten-containing grain products are hidden through alternate terminology and found in places you would never expect.  There is also "cross contamination" where naturally gluten free foods come into contact with gluten-containing grains during farming, transportation, storage and manufacturing processes. Then there is the issue of "cross reactivity" whereby you may be having gluten-like reaction to food proteins whose structure is similar to gluten. Chief among these are dairy, oats (even gluten-free oats), soy, corn and eggs. I am including this article that you might find helpful:

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      By K6315 · Posted

      Prior to being diagnosed, I had a gluten heavy diet. I stopped all gluten exactly a week ago and have continued to feel sick in the ways I did prior to going gluten free - primarily on and off nausea, brain fog, and fatigue. Wondering if this is normal and, if so, how long can I expect to feel this way?
