6 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Wilmington

“We had a wonderful Valentine's Day mid-afternoon meal, with marvelous service by both Rochelle and Nicole, and others too! This is our first visit to this Mission BBQ location, but, like all our other Mission visits up in Pennsylvania, everyone was smiling and cheerful, and it was just a wonderful experience.

And after inquiring what we were doing for our Valentine's Day, we ended up giving a lesson on geocaching! I've never seen so many smiling people in one restaurant as in ever single Mission BBQ!

And on top of everything, our meal was nearly free. We had coupons from January, and ended up with two wonderful black plate specials, baked potatoes with brisket and pulled pork, and two blueberry cobblers (one was Valentine's surprise!). Since we rarely eat our whole meal, we now have half of everything to have for dinner tomorrow!

Sorry, we didn't think to take any pictures, but suffice it to say it was all delicious. And the restaurant was clean and wonderful.“

“I always get the BBQ or Jerk chicken and usually it’s 3-4 big pieces depending on what he has he sell out fast one of my favorite spots to go to it reminds me of Peppa jerk chicken in Brooklyn NY“

“We just ate there first time. It was awesome seriously great greens my chicken quarters were fabulous moist potato salad very good. Only issue was the Turkey whilst real Turku no processed was a bit dry“

“Located in Lewes, DE. This place is so delicious with the most pleasant employees. Stop by and visit them, and if you live locally they are on door dash. I personally love their breakfast omelette, pulled chicken rice bowl and anything brisket. Oooo also try their “Omy Fingers”. It’s a must try.“

“I have been eating Dick Howell BBQ since 1969 at their previous location. There is no better bbq sandwich anywhere. They have a hot slaw and a sweet slaw to choose from. I believe they are with and without red pepper. I have eaten bbq in Texas, Kansas City, Memphis and anywhere else I could find it. As far as BBQ sandwiches, Dick Howell is King. It is now in a very small place and tricky to find but it is worth a special trip.“

“The food is amazing! The staff are really friendly. I always look forward to coming here every week!“
