5 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Middletown

“Outstanding. Orange chicken was great.“

“If you’re anywhere near Middletown, you have to stop at The Hop Yard. The brisket and burnt ends are on a whole different level. The brisket is perfectly smoked, tender, and packed with flavor, and the burnt ends are the kind you dream about — crispy on the outside, melt-in-your-mouth on the inside, and absolutely loaded with smoky goodness.

The portions are generous, the service is friendly, and the whole place just has that welcoming, local vibe that makes you want to come back. I’ve had barbecue all over, and The Hop Yard easily ranks at the top. If you love real BBQ, this is your spot. Highly recommend!“

“We chose mission bbq to cater our 10/27/23 wedding and we’re not disappointed! From the quality of the food to the display of the buffet everything was absolutely phenomenal! I hope they keep track of the staff who work each event because the staff we had were amazing, they were kind and very attentive. Thank you so much mission bbq!! I will forever recommend their services!“

“The food here is sooo good! The sandwiches are HUGE! I could only eat 1/4 of my sandwich and the mac and cheese….YUMMY!!!“
