BBQs can be tricky for those with food allergies or following a 6FED or 4FED elimination diet. But with the right tips, you can still enjoy a delicious, stress-free BBQ! This simple recipe for BBQ turkey, safe chips, and fresh salad is perfect for people avoiding common allergens like dairy, wheat, eggs, and soy. With just a few precautions, you can grill up a tasty meal that’s both safe and satisfying.

These tips are perfect for anyone on these diets:

  • 4FED: A 4-food elimination diet, excluding dairy, wheat, egg, and soy.
  • 6FED: A 6-food elimination diet, excluding dairy, wheat, egg, soy, fish, and nuts.

Recent research shows the 1FED can be as effective as the 6FED diet as first-line therapy for Eosinophilic Oesophagitis (EoE). Eliminating animal milk alone is much easier and more sustainable than eliminating multiple foods. Learn more here.

Allergy-Friendly BBQ Tips for 6FED and 4FED Diets:

  • Opt for plain turkey steaks seasoned with salt and pepper for a safe, delicious option.
  • Avoid eating chips at restaurants or takeaways, as they often use the same oil for various foods, which can lead to cross-contamination.
  • When buying ready-to-cook chips, carefully check the label for any added oils or ingredients beyond potatoes. Always read the label!
  • Prepare a simple salad using safe vegetables, such as lettuce, radishes, celery, carrots, and cucumber.
  • Stick to simple seasonings like salt, pepper, and oil instead of using processed sauces that may contain allergens.
