15 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Vinton

“Today’s buffet at Smiley’s was absolutely delicious! The food was all seasoned well, hot and just so good. The desserts were amazing!! I wanted to eat more but I just couldn’t eat another bite! If you haven’t tried their Sunday buffet….you should.“

“Ordered Philly Cheese Steak and it was edible....kind of like a dry roast beef sandwich. Couldn't taste or see green peppers, onions and CHEESE which is what a Philly CHESS steak is supposed to be.“

“This restaurant is an exceptional destination for both family outings and a quality lunch. Consistently impressive, it has become a personal favorite over the past two years. Despite being a regular customer, I still find new menu items to explore, which speaks to the variety and creativity in their offerings. The culinary team excels at developing rich, natural flavors without overwhelming the dishes. The standout for me is the brisket—particularly the bark. It’s perfectly seasoned with a balanced smoky and salty profile that enhances rather than masks the quality of the meat. It may very well be the best brisket I’ve ever had. The mac and cheese is also a highlight—undeniably the best in town as a side dish. And for anyone visiting, the Pastrami Reuben is a must-try. The flavor and quality of the pastrami are unmatched, making the sandwich well worth the wait whenever it appears on the menu. In short, this place continues to impress and set the bar high. Outstanding food, consistent execution, and a memorable experience every time. Keep up the great work“

“My husband I are huge Mission fans. They catered our wedding! Last night our food was subpar so I called over to explain the disappointment. Tony took care of us without us having to put up a fight! Needless to say, Mission will always get our business due to the stellar customer service!“

“I want to say how good the catering was for my wedding!! I appreciate everything you did!!! Great food and was set up perfect!!!“

“The food here is FABULOUS! The staff is sooo friendly and polite also! The prices are reasonable as well! This place may not get enough credit! Everything is homemade daily! The meat is truly smoked on site EVERY DAY!! Their Brunswick Stew is the epitome of homemade comfort food!! The coleslaw and potato salad are exquisite and made every day fresh!! Another commenter complained about the hush puppies?? These are THE BEST FRESHEST CRISPEST DELICIOUS hush puppies!! In our opinion that is unbelievably inaccurate! They have a cozy little bar to sit at also. The restaurant itself is definitely in need of a makeover…. No question. They seem to do a very good business with lots of regulars. If ambience is critical, (it is for us), then we completely recommend takeout (pickup) which they do a wonderful job at!!“

“I have probably eaten here 100 times over the years and have never ever been disappointed. Service is always good and quality of the food is always on point. The salads are the best and are huge and I never get tired of pulled chicken or pulled pork and the portions are always great. The outside seating is large and the place is always clean. I'm grateful we have such a wonderful barbecue place in our area.“

“On July 27,2025 Schaeffer Memorial Baptist Church in Christiansburg, VA was the host of the annual joint worship service with Cambria Baptist Church. The 3pm service consisted of Cambria Baptist choir singing and blessing the congregation with beautiful songs. The Pastor of CBC delivered a powerful message of Christian unity. After the service SMB provided a delicious and tasty dinner.

Schaeffer Memorial Baptist Church had purchased over eight (8) pounds of pork bbq from Due South BBQ. The BBQ was a hit. Everyone spoke about how much they enjoyed the tender delicious bbq. Folks wanted to know where SMB had purchased the BBQ.
Folks raved about how tender, lean and tasty this BBQ was. Everyone throughly enjoyed the BBQ from Due South BBQ. I highly recommend Due South for the delicious food, desserts and the atmosphere is amazing. The new owners of 2 years have really taken Due South to a new level. In my opinion it’s the best BBQ in the Roanoke, NRV and Southwest Virginia. I highly recommend Due South BBQ. It’s definitely delicious 😋“

“Recently, my husband and I wound up staying in a hotel near Roanoke. I remembered getting milkshakes with my son near there when we were driving cross country. I told my husband that those were the best milkshakes I had ever had. We decided to find the Cook Out restaurant and went through their drive thru. The milkshakes did not disappoint!“
