One of our best sellers… smokey, spicy and scrumptious…
Gluten is the protein component found in wheat, rye and barley. The modern diet can mean consuming more gluten than we did previously, resulting in more and more people becoming sensitive to Gluten. This is why we at IFI have focused on offering a Gluten Free range to our customers.
Our fabulous Gluten Free range includes a wide range of options, including marinades, glazes, crumbs, sausage mixes and burger mixes.
Our range of AVO Lafiness Oil Based Marinades are all Gluten Free, HVP Free and allergen free, and come in over 30 fantastic flavours. They have each been specially created using the finest quality ingredients and offer an excellent visual appeal.
The Alfresco Butcher have a new range of Gluten Free glazes available, fabulous for flavouring any meat this BBQ season. The range includes a Chinese style Glaze, a Garlic Butter Glaze, a Hot & Spicy Glaze to bring the zing to your pork chops, a Mint glaze which is great for lamb and a classic Smokey BBQ Glaze to bring the BBQ taste indoors, whatever the weather may be!
Our range includes four different Gluten Free crumbs from AVO, suitable for all meats. Their classic Gluten Free Crumb is a superb, catch-all crumb that enhances all substrates and applications. The Gluten Free Alabama Crumb is inspired by one of our best selling flavour profiles, and is attractive, delicious and very moreish. AVO’s Gluten Free Tomato and Herb Crumb is a vibrant, colourful and very flavoursome addition to the range. They also offer a distinct Gluten Free Curry Crumb – crispy, punchy and doesn’t hold back on taste.
Arthur Pipkins now offer four different Gluten Free sausage mixes in our range including the Premium Cumberland Sauage Mix, the Olde English Sausage Mix, the Lincolnshire Sausage Mix and a traditional Pork Sausage Mix. Their Premium Gluten Free Burger Mix & Chopped Onion is also available, making it easy to make BBQ’s a Gluten Free zone this summer!
If you’re looking for something a bit special to offer your customer – AVO’s Premium Black Garlic Marinade is also Gluten Free! A fine balance of ingredients, excellent with poultry, lamb and beef. Black Garlic contains twice as many antioxidants as raw garlic, which is sure to be an added selling point!
Whatever your flavour preference, it’s certain that we have something to appeal to those who have decided to avoid gluten in their diet. View our Gluten Free products here, or contact us to find out more from a member of the team.
