I contacted Butterball via email and here is their responce.

============

Thank you for contacting the Butterball Turkey Talk-Line via the Internet!

The Lil' Butterball fresh turkey is an excellent option for you. Here's our
information about gluten:

When there are dietary concerns, we advise purchasing Burrerball Fresh Turkey
and Butterball Fresh Breast of Turkey, which are all natural and contain no
added ingredients.  The breast meat of Butterball Frozen Turkeys, including
Butterball Frozen Stuffed Turkey, is moistness enhanced with a patented
recipe of ingredients to yield a more uniformly juicy and tender turkey after
cooking.  Individual ingredients are specified on the labels of all
Butterball Frozen Turkeys and Butterball frozen line extension products.

Because Butterball Frozen Stuffed Turkey is stuffed with a traditional bread
stuffing, it does contain gluten.  The gravy packets that come with some
Butterball Turkey products also contain gluten.

If you have further questions regarding gluten in a Butterball product,
please call Consumer Affairs (1-800-325-7424).  When calling, please have
available the UPC number of the product in question.


To receive a complimentary instant-read meat thermometer (used to check the
internal temperatures of the turkey breast, thigh and stuffing at the end of
cooking time), call the Butterball Turkey Talk-Line at 1-800-323-4848.
