Texas Roadhouse Honey Ginger Soy BBQ
This honey ginger soy BBQ is high in histamine, mainly from soybeans, wine, and tomato.
Most of this is cooked to order, which is the best case for histamine. Even so, a restaurant kitchen preps ahead and holds things warm through a service, so freshness varies more than it would at home. The rating above comes from the chain's published ingredients. If a dish is borderline for you, asking how it is prepared tells you more than the menu does.
This is a sweet, savory sauce built on soy, wheat, wine, sugar, honey, and tomato.
-
Soybeans and wine — the soybean base is high, and the wine acts as a DAO blocker, which is the enzyme that clears histamine, so both push the sauce up.
-
Tomato — tomato is a classic histamine liberator, and the wheat and soybean oil add moderate weight on top.
A plain unsauced grilled item is a much lower-histamine choice from the same menu.
