Brisket sandwich and one rib
Iceguy B.

Tasty ribs and brisket Single ribs for as little as $3.50 each 6 sauces all very good

Jessica G.

I have visited Mission BBQ several times as it's near my home and I am never disappointed. I have always ordered the same thing, pulled smoked chicken, slaw and sometimes Mac and cheese. I gave it 4 stars this time only because the chicken was different this time. Still delicious but it wasn't as moist for some reason. The staff is always very nice and helpful and I like that they have outdoor seating because it's always FREEZING inside which I don't fault them for, I'm cold all of the time! I would absolutely recommend! OH, I almost forgot... the vinegar. I LOVE the vinegar!

Best BBQ in Fort Myers! The employees are friendly and courteous. The entrees are delicious! I always order their beef brisket (moist) along with their baked beans (although their Mac 'n Cheese is very good too). The walls are adorned with pictures of first responders, firefighters, policemen, and our wonderful military men and women. How can you not love and support a place like this? This time, like every other time, the food was excellent and the service exemplary. I highly recommend you check them out.

Brisket Sandwish with Freshly Cut Fries
Gerald S.

Hello and good afternoon. Well, it is Natural BBQ Day and as an repeated offender to the Fort Myers location, I could not have picked a better BBQ joint. By me being a US Navy veteran and retired LEO, I love the way Mission BBQ supports the US Military and LEOs , their continued support definitely goes a long way .‍ My brisket sandwich was cooked just right to accompany my BBQ brisket, I added the freshly cut dries. Keep up the great work, Mission BBQ

Mmm where do I begin. So I've heard these are banging and I absolutely had to try. (We don't have in New York) so I stayed nearby in Iona area. And the food was indeed bangin' & the lady behind the counter was super nice and I tried all the BBQ sauces. Super good & would def go again

The staff and food at this location are simply amazing!! We stopped in for lunch today after getting married and taking photos this morning in Fort Myers. It was a spur of the moment decision but we're so glad we did. We received fast but amazing service, fresh and fantastic food and lots of congrats and well wishes from the staff. We even received complimentary dessert from Mr. Ben and team. Thank you for making our already special day even more special!!

I ordered a 2 meat plate. I had Turkey ave extra lean brisket with beans and green beans. The brisket was really good. My Turkey was dry. I liked the baked beans and green beans. They were flavorful. My husband had the ribs. He said they were tasty. They have 6 different sauces you can add to your meats. I went with Texas and Memphis. They were both good. I liked the Texas one best. I am from Texas so it's hard to find a really good barbecue place that's like Texas. I did enjoy my food. I would go back and recommend trying this place out.

Brisket, Potato Salad and Green Beans!
Nikki C.

This place don't play!! It's hands down the best BBQ I've ever had from a chain restaurant. I ordered a 1/2lb of brisket, with a side of green beans and potato salad and it was so very good. The brisket was smokey, tender and delicious. Really stole the show for sure. The service is great too, the whole staff is friendly and helpful. I even caught the manager walking around making sure we were all happy. Definitely going the extra mile. The atmosphere is great too. They pay homage to our veterans and those who serve, and I think that's great! Final verdict. This place rocks!!

We found them at FtMyers Brewery. We had the special of the day Short Ribs . (Wow!!! Perfectly seasoned, cooked to perfection, topped with Chimichurri. The meat fell off the bone.

Everyone said it was the best party they had been to in years (thanks to the wonderful BBQ food). Very cool to have the food truck right in the driveway and tables and chairs set up in our 3-car garage for easy access to the food! Tom M.

We chose the sit down side, and our server was friendly and attentive, with the food coming out quickly. Everything we tried was phenomenal. The brisket was fork tender, the burnt ends were huge and delicious, and the ribs had great smoky flavor. The baked beans were excellent, too. All the homemade sauces were delicious, a little on the sweet side, which I enjoyed. I also got a free pulled pork sandwich for signing up for their newsletter, and it was every bit as good as the rest of the meal. Fantastic barbecue and service.

Bill, the owner, runs a fantastic operation and made the entire planning process seamless. The food was a massive hit. The brisket was perfectly smoked and incredibly tender, the chicken was juicy, and the pulled pork was packed with flavor. You also cannot miss their sides--the baked beans were absolutely amazing, and the cole slaw was the perfect fresh pairing. A special shoutout to the young lady who came to set up the food at our business. I cannot remember her name, but she was absolutely great! She was professional, efficient, and made sure everything looked beautiful and stayed hot for our team. If you need incredible BBQ for a lunch or a catered event, Bill and his crew at Big8 BBQ are the best in Cape Coral. We will definitely be ordering again!

First off, they are flexible in terms of not everyone at the table has to get the same choice. If one person only wants hot pot, while everyone else wants both, that's fine. Pricing is decent and competitive. Worth the price tag. We are typically hot pot people but I must say with this restaurant, I think I favored the KBBQ more. There were plenty of bbq options including butter shrimp, bulgogi, pork belly and short ribs. I loved it all! You can also ask the server for white rice and they will bring it to your table. The hot pot options were great as well. I enjoyed the rolled fatty beef, the crabs, and the many options that were going around on the conveyer belt. They had a variety of broth options. My partner loved the spicy option. We will definitely be back!

Everything was good but I have 1 complaint. Two of the dinners came out with 7 ribs and 1 came out with 5 ribs and were smaller than the other 2 plates. Of all the times we have been going there, this is the first time I was disappointed. The waitress was very good.

The interior is not fancy, but it is thoughtfully laid out and has a classic barbecue feel. Our waitress was quick to bring drinks and take our order, which made the visit start smoothly. The menu offers a wide variety of barbecue meats, along with fish and simpler options like hamburgers and hot dogs. Overall, there is something to suit a broad range of tastes. What We Ordered: * 3 Baby Back Rib Dinners with Baked Potato, Corn, Coleslaw & Garlic Bread * Fish & Shrimp Combo with Baked Potato, Corn & Applesauce * Fish & Shrimp Combo with Sweet Potato, Corn, Coleslaw & Garlic Bead Food Quality: The baby back ribs were decent, but they seemed a little dry. Adding barbecue sauce helped quite a bit and improved the flavor. I was very disappointed with the fried shrimp included in the fish combo dinner. After removing the breading, I found that there was barely any shrimp inside. The baked potato was average in size and came with only a packet of sour cream and a few butter packets, so it felt fairly basic. The corn on the cob was half a portion but was okay. The coleslaw had a slight bite to it, but it was also only average. Overall, nothing really stood out or delivered a strong flavor. I must give the Smoke'n Pit Bar-B-Que a 3 out of 5 stars.

To be honest the spareribs were not great and they were dry and very hard to chew. The pulled pork was nice but cold. When we asked for the check to our surprise the price was 32.99 as well as the beer was 3.00. Not a huge difference but if you advertise with a price you should honor it. The waitress told us that more people complained and she suggested to inform customer service.

I was starting to get ready to leave when a very busy waitress said to me the bar tender will be right there. Nope! she continued talking to the people at that table. Then the nice waitress asked me if she could get me a drink. I asked for a orange cosmo. The girl didn't know how to make one, so I got a gin n tonic. When the bar tender finally came to take my order, I ordered a burger. She asked if I still wanted the cosmo. I said yes please. The food was good, but I found a long black hair on the plate. It was defiantly not mine. I am blond. The bar tender was snotty. She said, "sure wait until you ate most of it". The manager took the burger off my bill, very nice of her. I don't understand why a bar tender with very long hair isn't requited to keep it pulled back when food is served at the bar. My complements to Hannah! She is an amazing waitress.

Hogbody's is a bar/restaurant with no frills. I call it my favorite dive bar. But really, it's just no frills, as I said. If you're looking for consistently great wings and ribs, this is the place to go. We have been coming here for about 10 years now, and really are never disappointed in the food. They have the best wings anywhere. Lots of great sauces to choose from. Their ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender. However, FYI, they are a small rack. They have lots of other great items to choose from but these are my two favorites! Their side selection is decent. Mac & cheese, baked beans, collards, coleslaw, cornbread, etc. Oh, and their straw onion rings are a good choice for an appetizer! They also make fresh cobbler every day. Served warm with ice cream and whipped cream! Check them out! Get ready for a reasonably priced great meal.
