I've been to this elevated food truck location several times but the lack of consistency remains…read morethe same. I'm going to start with the positives: love to see a local black owned business! The customer service is always 10/10 and the prices are extremely reasonable for the portions and quality. The brisket was probably some of the best if not the best I've ever had. When I talk specifically about consistency, the food is sometimes heavily salted to the point of no return. Seasoned food and salty food- two different things. This batch of sides were too salty and not appetizing. The ribs were bland so it was hard to accept that the same person was seasoning the food. This family meal cost around $60 and we didn't want to leave the house again to get it corrected. I've had food here several times and it was great. It just didn't hit the mark this time.

The ribs were amazing! Delicious dry rub so juicy and perfectly tender. They offer a hot and sweet BBQ sauce homemade. I also got the sausage which had a nice kick to it. For side, the Mac and cheese and baked beans were so good. Also potato salad was a winner too! The baked beans had a nice sweetness to them as well. Overall I'm highly impressed with the food here and the portions were good. I will come back!!

The ribs and brisket were tender, well seasoned and had a nice smoky flavor. The greens were pretty good with a slightly tart vinegary bite. None of my family members were fans of the Mac and cheese but the baked beans were pretty good- they were VERY sweet but still a good pairing with the tart greens, smoky meat and Texas toast. Overall I was grateful to find a nice meal within 10 minutes from my house that was well-portioned and not overpriced.

I was craving protein after a workout session and this hit the spot. Highly recommend checking this place out if you have not, I really like that the meat is not cooked in sauce but that you have the option to put your own sauce on it afterwards. A lot of people tell me that they don't like barbecue because they don't like barbecue sauce so I always tell them to check out mission. The service is really good, always. It's also very clean.

Everything was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. The pulled pork was tender and juicy, and the brisket was flavorful without being heavy. I had fun sampling all of their barbecue sauces before deciding that the Smoky Mountain sauce was my favorite overall. For the brisket, I went with the Tupelo Honey Heat sauce, which added the perfect sweet kick. What really made the experience stand out was the service. Kathy, who was cleaning tables and checking in with guests, took the time to talk with me and make sure everything was great. When she found out it was my first visit, she surprised me with a full sampler of sides to try, completely unexpected and incredibly thoughtful. She even included some banana puddin' that was absolutely amazing. Great food, great atmosphere, and even better hospitality. Highly recommend if you are in the Riverview area.

I finally came to the right Bubba's( please see review for Bubba's 33). We arrived like 9:10 pm and pretty much 20 minutes before closing. Er were promptly greeted and we advised them we were going to give their menu a look. We decided on pick 3, which consisted of: brisket, 3 piece ribs, and half a chicken, for the sides were got macaroni and cheese and crinkled cut fries. We paid for our meal and picked a booth near the entrance. I almost forgot to mention we got a drink an made us some Arnold Palmer and for dessert with got banana pudding. We sat at our booth and our food arrived nice and hot. Fries very tasty and crunchy. We dived into the food I had a piece of brisket, nicely smoked and very moist. They had a variety of barbeque sauces you can you at your leisure. I picked a vinegar flavored and hickory sweet smoke which I alternated as I ate the meats. Let's talk sides. French fries fresh and crispy, now when it came for the macaroni it gives you flavor of the KFC version, it's alright. It came with a piece of toast. Taste similar to the cheez bread from Sizzlers just softer. (I'm showing my age). We had so much food and unless I'm very hungry we tend to share a plate. We took the banana pudding home and later tried it. The banana pudding was OMG, to die for, it had a very homemade taste. I highly recommend this dessert. Restaurant had a very cozy feel. The ambiance seem kind of quiet, but mind you we went on a Sunday night. The workers were very polite and attentive. If in the Brandon area, this is a must try.

They were both okay but that's not my cup of tea anyway. We will definitely be back.
