I visited Wild Waylon's BBQ as part of my effort to get a hot dog in every county and incorporated…read morecity in Virginia. Wild Waylon's was my Stafford County stop. First of all the amazing bbq smell hits you as soon as you leave the car and there are few better greetings than that. When we arrived around 11:45 on a Sunday there was a line of folks. Best I can tell, they had gotten a little behind putting together a large catering/to-go order. The line moved quickly was they were focused on us. The folks behind the counter were friendly and welcoming. We got their smoked dogs, with a side of pimento cheese mac and cheese and I tried their smoked devil eggs too. We sat on the ice cream side of the restaurant as they got our lunch ready. When our dogs hit the table there was an immediate and simultaneous, "Wowwwwww!" from us. I mean, just look at that picture. These were MONSTER wieners in big, toasted, split top buns. The slaw was flavorful and crunchy, the mustard BBQ was the ideal flavor profile. We were in heaven. The pimento mac and cheese - a delight. SO creamy with actual flavor (rare for restaurant mac and cheese unfortunately). The deviled eggs were good but I don't know they they were anything special. This was such a great spot. I'm really looking forward to returning.

Disappointing service from a rude server at a place we've long enjoyed…read moreWe've been loyal customers here for quite some time, visiting at least twice a month, usually on Friday or Saturday nights when we enjoy the live music. Unfortunately, our last two visits have been marred by the same new server who was consistently rude and dismissive. On our most recent visit, we waited over 10 minutes before she approached our table. My husband ordered a meal (he loves the BBQ), but I cannot eat the smoked food due to stomach issues. I simply ordered a rum and coke with lime. She responded with "Pepsi?" and later repeated back only "Pepsi" when confirming the order, completely ignoring the rum portion even after I emphasized it. When my husband requested sangria -- something the bartender has happily made for us on previous Friday/Saturday visits -- she insisted they don't serve it and that he must have had it on a Sunday. We never visit on Sundays. Later in the evening, we moved closer to the fire pit because it was cool outside. She brought our water over and checked on us a couple of times. We told her we were fine. Toward the end of the night, my husband went to the bar to order another drink (as we've done before when the server isn't readily available). When it came time to close out our tab, the server arrived with the manager (Nolan) in tow. His presence felt awkward and accusatory -- as if we were about to skip out on the bill or posed some kind of problem. When we expressed confusion, he said he was just there to "warm his hands." As longtime, regular customers, we found the overall treatment disrespectful and off-putting. We tried speaking with a manager afterward to share our experience, but it didn't seem to go anywhere. We genuinely wanted to continue supporting this spot for the music and atmosphere, but after two poor experiences in a row with this server and the strange handling at close-out, we will not be returning. There are plenty of other options nearby.

It definitely felt like it had a loyal and local crowd and was unpretentious in nature. Service was friendly. While we enjoyed out visit we probably won't be back. The food was decent but not enough to warrant a repeat visit. What we got: Put Master - 3.5* a decent sandwich. It hit the spot. Smokey Allman's Dog - 3.5* it was decent and I enjoyed the flavour, it just wasn't all that special. Baked Beans (side of) - 3* nothing special to write home about

Second time ever at mission bbq and an update to my review…read more Had the brisket, pulled chicken, Cole slaw, and peach cobbler. Chicken: good. Moist. My preference is for whole pieces of smoked chicken but I get it. The NC sauce in the table was an ok compliment to this. Brisket: got the combo lean/fatty. Both were good, lean just a touch dry but not horrible. Cole slaw: good. Was worried when I sat down because there's no s&p on the table.....didn't need it. Peach cobbler: star of dinner. Nothing beats hot peach cobbler, even if it's just "pretty good" cobbler. Overall: food was good. Nothing spectacular, but solid. Much better than my first trip. Service was excellent (it wasn't super busy). Ambiance: sort of a Texas locker room/military/fire department sort of thing going on. Pretty ok. Cons: food doesn't stay warm long on a metal tray inside a cold restaurant. And out of 7 choices for bbq sauce, not a single "really good" one. The Memphis sauce was probably the best of all 7. I'll go back. This experience was so much better than the first time. Did not take fresh pictures.

This was my first visit to this 'newer' location. I say newer, because I saw when it opened, but…read morejust haven't had the chance to stop in until a few days ago. The place is exactly like all the others I've been to between VA - PA. Service is great, friendly, professional, very helpful, and what they have made a business out of - just like all the other locations I've visited. The menu is the same as well. I tried their turkey and jalapeño sausage for my two meats, and their cheesy potatoes and beans as sides. The turkey was moist and had a nice smokey flavor. It tasted great, in fact! It was so much better than the sausage I got. The sausage was cooked great, had a nice smoke, but was bland and tasted almost like a boring ham. It definitely needed a sauce on it, and the staff recommended their mustard sauce, which I thought was really nice. In fact, my favs on this visit were the KC, Mustard, and Nashville Hot Sauce. I was there during the noon time period where the National Anthem plays and it was great to see all the patrons participate in the Anthem. Of course, the restaurant's staff participated and that's GREAT! Mission not only makes chain BBQ great, but they help to keep Making American Great Again too!!
