We recently ordered food from Mission BBQ, and it was such a hit with my family—especially my daughter, who couldn’t stop raving about their homestyle mac and cheese. That dish alone sealed the deal for us to have them cater our Thanksgiving, and let me tell you, it was the best decision we could have made!

Every bite tasted homemade—there are clearly no shortcuts here. You can tell people are really back there cooking with care. The meal felt like a classic cookout, bringing that comforting, soulful vibe to our holiday table.

The mac and cheese was the star for my daughter: a rich, cheesy, Southern classic with bold flavor that puts boxed versions to shame. The smoked turkey was incredibly juicy and full of flavor. But for me, the cornbread dressing stole the show—it was perfectly seasoned and brought back memories of authentic home cooking.

Other highlights included the smashed potatoes and gravy, which were clearly made from scratch and tasted as fresh as they come. The banana pudding was a delightful surprise—real bananas and a light, creamy pudding that didn’t have that artificial boxed taste.

If I had one critique, it would be the apple caramel cobbler. While flavorful, it was heavier on the syrup and apples than the crust, making it a bit too sweet for my taste. That said, I can see how some people might prefer it that way.

We were so impressed we’re already planning to have them cater Christmas! Mission BBQ has truly mastered the art of comfort food done right. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a stress-free, delicious holiday meal.

As soon as you walk in, the heavenly aroma of hickory and mesquite smoke hits you.

The ordering is done cafeteria style, with everything ala carte. Once your order has been placed, you fix your drinks from the self-serve soft drink, iced tea, and lemonade dispensers, then sit down at whatever open table or booth you'd like and wait until your name is called, whereupon you retrieve your food tray, and return to your table.

The portions were large, and the brisket was the best I've had this side of Texas. The pulled pork was tender and juicy, as was the smoked turkey. The salmon was both grilled and smoked, and was delicious. The fries were fresh cut, and made to order, and I could tell that the baked beans were slow cooked with plenty of shredded brisket. The cole slaw was crisp with a nice balance of sweet and sour. The iced tea was fresh brewed, and the lemonade seemed like it was made with real lemons.

At each table there was a "six pack" of different barbecue sauces in squeeze bottles, plus a glass "shaker" bottle of Carolina style vinegar sauce. It was nice (and fun) to be able try different sauces with the various meats and fish.

All and all a great family restaurant.

Dietary restrictions: A gluten free menu is available, with all of the meat, fish, and fries being gluten free, along with the beans, and coleslaw.

Parking: Dedicated parking place (right at the door) for veterans.

Kid-friendliness: Lots of kids and babies. Very family friendly.

Customer service is absolutely wonderful. We had an order with our issue and they went above and beyond to make it right. I was really grateful how kind they were. The brisket was delicious, the mac and cheese really good and the cheesy potatoes amazing. We loved the green beans and even the cole slaw was done really well.

Edited 11.30.24 - Visited today and again amazing customer service. They legitimately seem like they enjoy their jobs and are so kind. Love having them in our neighborhood.

Closed on Wednesday when the internet shows open. Every restaurant and bar in the county open on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. No excuse. Will never get a dollar of mine and my friends. Amateur operation. Go to Park Avenue a real restaurant.

This restaurant was amazing. I’m a veteran that came on Veterans Day and was blown away by the atmosphere. There were photos of veterans covering the wall along with military flags and patches from every branch. I was so happy to see that they celebrate veterans every day and not just once a year. The POW table was the nicest I’ve ever seen.

I will definitely come again. The restaurant was clean and the staff members were amazing! The food was really good too! I’m from NC and the pulled pork (BBQ) was top notch!

Food was good. The value of what you receive is below PAR
I asked for sliced Brisket at $12.89. I received shredded beef. And was told that is the way the slices came out.
Also can't believe with any sandwich they don't give you a side. The sandwich was the smallest I every seen in a long time.
Will not be going back.

I've visited this place a while back and I will say that this location had some great food. Something that was particularly my favorite at this BBQ joint is the brisket. Each table also has a bunch of handcrafted sauces you can try. I would recommend this location to people who want to try out Texas barbeque. Something you will also notice in the atmosphere at this location is that it is very patriotic. Overall great location.
