My 2022 gladiator overland has 8k miles on it. Today, I started it up, and it was sputtering instead of the normal startup. It cleared up and ran fine, but wth was that about ? No codes.

Misfires. As far as why - could be any one of 100 things (maybe more!)
There's no "hey this will fix it" for such issues.

I'd ask - was this a cold start - or, was it already warm, then shut down, then after a few minutes started again?
Yes, makes a big difference............

Yes , cold start. I’m a mechanic, and I have never seen a new vehicle do that. My first thought was bad fuel, cause I just filled it up the day before. I don’t drive it often, maybe 30 miles a week, depending on medical calls or fires. I drove it the day before, no issues.
