Is KC Masterpiece BBQ Sauce Gluten-Free?

A client recently asked me to check if KC Masterpiece BBQ sauce is gluten-free. BBQ sauce can contain wheat, barley or rye.  BBQ sauce can also contain white vinegar which many people who have Celiac chose to avoid. 

 

Is KC Masterpiece BBQ Sauce Gluten-Free?

I went to the KC Masterpiece website and looked at FAQ's. Here is the responses: 

Do KC Masterpiece® products contain gluten?

Most of our products do not contain gluten. Products and ingredients made from grains containing gluten—such as wheat, rye and barley—will be clearly listed in the ingredient statement on the package label.

Are KC Masterpiece® products labeled "Gluten Free"?

Only products that have been verified to be gluten free will have a “Gluten Free” statement. However, not all products that are gluten free will have this statement while we are in the process of updating our labels. Please refer to the ingredient statement on package labels or contact us for clarification.

Do you provide a list of products that are gluten free?

We are always striving to improve our products’ quality and nutritional value and ingredient sourcing may change over time. For that reason, we do not provide gluten free product lists as they could quickly become outdated. The most up-to-date product information is on the package the product is purchased in.

How do you ensure your products are gluten free?

We have a program in place to support the use of the “Gluten Free” statement. Products listed as “Gluten Free” undergo scheduled testing. All suppliers provide assurance that there are no ingredients that contain or are derived from gluten-containing grains. Our products are manufactured in facilities with stringent allergen control programs to prevent cross contamination.

My favorite Gluten-Free BBQ Sauce is Robbie's.
