    Best brisket around, and consistent! No kmife required!!! And be ready to remove your hat at noon

    Pulled pork to go with Cole slaw and baked beans.  It's a big serving size.

    Always good food here. Coming home from Doswell. Stopped in to get some decent BBQ. We both ordered the pulled pork sandwiches, different sides. The pulled pork was good, maybe a tad dry, and you have multiple sauces to add to your sandwich. I really like their Cole slaw and beans. My daughter got the Mac and cheese- which I would avoid. She also got the collards, which are pretty decent tasting. This is fast food, with a them, hailing our first responders, military and veterans. Gotta love that. If you want fast and decent BBQ, this chain is pretty reliable and delivers a good product.

    My partner got me this on the way back home bc a friend recommended Mission bbq to him. The briskets were great. I was told not to order the lean one because it's dry. Glad I listened. The corn bread was amazing, but Mac and cheese was ehh, typical. But overall, they were good.

    Ribs with Georgia BBQ.

    It has been 9 years since I have eaten here and I was worried that the quality had gone down like so many other restaurants since COVID. I am proud to report they haven't fallen off a bit. Ribs, coleslaw, cheesy potatoes and sweet tea did not disappoint.

    Mission BBQ is always consistently good. The flavor is great and they have a ton of sauces.

    I've been to various Mission BBQ locations but this is my first time at this one. Staff was friendly, social distancing is being observed, and the food was great, as always. Portions are filling and you'll end up with a happy heart. My pulled pork sandwich was moist and the mac and cheese delicious. You won't be disappointed. Plenty of parking and close to I-95 if your on the road.

    Brisket, Pulled Pork, Max & Cheese, Fries, and Cornbread!

    First let me say this was one of cleanest stops we made on our trip! The bathroom was immaculate and so was the dining area, so much so that what started as a bathroom stop on an 11 hour trip ended up making us stay for lunch. With that being said, this is not a cheap drive thru fast casual restaurant! The average price for 1 meal is $11. That not terrible for good Bbq, this however was mediocre BBQ. The brisket, though cooked well, lacked any type of seasoning whatsoever. Seriously I think there wasn't even a sprinkle of salt or a dash of pepper on that meat! The pulled pork was just okay. I will say having a number of Bbq sauces to chose from to pour on top definitely helped. My favorite was mixture of the Tupelo Honey & the Kansas City. The macaroni was cheesy but it was missing something. The fries were perfect- the right amount of crunchy to salty. Oh and the cornbread, hmmm idk if you could even call that cornbread. It was more like a gritty stick to your mouth piece of brick! I know a box Jiffy cornbread produces better results then what we had! All in all, I give this a 3 out of 5. It wasn't the worst Bbq I've had but it wasn't even close to the best. Actually if I could I think I would rate it more of a 2.5.

    Great news...another business eatery in Fredericksburg. Unfortunately, it didn't impress. So here's my Yelp review in a nutshell. Chain restaurant with a ton of great memorabilia on the walls supporting military! But, they don't give a military discount! You "support" our military, but don't offer a military discount? I would HIGHLY suggest that you add that option. Otherwise, all I hear is a bunch of bologna propaganda! A 10% discount for active service members or veterans wouldn't hurt. Even Wendy's offers a 10% discount to service members, EMT, police and fireman. This is a great location in Fredericksburg. Nice decor, busy busy busy when we came, which means either people are loving it or at least trying it. My husband ordered the plate with 2 meats. Prices shown do NOT include a side, so it can get a bit pricey. He got the pulled pork and pulled chicken with a piece of cornbread. You get a scoop of each on a paper lined tray. I got the 1 meat plate with pulled pork, cornbread and a side of fries for us to split. There are a variety of sauces on the table to try out. I enjoyed my pork, but my husband found his to be fatty. The fries were very good! Cornbread was dry. Fountain machine in the lobby for unlimited refills of soda or tea. There is an option to pickup a glass bottle of soda at the entrance, in cool little retro bottles, which is nice. Beer on tap. Basic fast food honestly. Nothing to rave about. I would go there again, but I don't see the 'wow' factor.

I judge every spot against what I'm putting out at home... and a lot of places fall short -- whether it's weak seasoning, lack of smoke, or just flat-out underwhelming flavor. But Wild Waylon's BBQ? Yeah... this place is LEGIT. We went all in: pulled pork, brisket, and the big dino beef ribs -- plus mac and cheese, green beans, a bacon-wrapped jalapeño popper, and the jalapeño cornbread. Every single thing delivered. The brisket had great flavor and was cooked right, the pulled pork was juicy and well-seasoned, and those beef ribs... absolute showstopper. Big, meaty, packed with flavor, and done exactly how you'd want them. Sides were just as solid. The mac and cheese was rich and satisfying, green beans had great flavor, and that bacon-wrapped jalapeño popper + jalapeño cornbread combo? Yeah... ridiculous in the best way. And the smoke -- you can actually taste it. That alone separates them from a lot of spots. The whole experience was on point too. The big pit out front lets you know immediately they're serious about their craft, and the staff was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful the entire time. Prices are also very reasonable for the quality you're getting. This is one of the few places I've been where I walk away thinking, "yeah... they're doing it right." If you're anywhere near Fredericksburg -- or even just passing through -- this spot is absolutely worth the stop.

    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.

The guy running things in the trailer was very friendly, clearly the owner. They offer all the typical BBQ joint menu items (Brisket, Pulled pork, Pulled chicken., Ribs, etc) and all the typical sides too (beans, slaw, green beans, corn bread, etc). I also liked that they have about 6 BBQ sauces, all made by them and all different styles/flavors. We got a pulled chicken sandwich and a brisket sandwich. For sides, we opted for their cole slaw and baked beans. I also got one of each of their sauces to try. Prices seemed fair, at $28 for this order (what I said we got). Getting home and cracking into our order - The slaw was 'ok' but seemed to be lacking depth of flavor (celery seed and pepper) and had a slightly off taste. Plus, the container was filled about half way. The beans were really good! Nice flavor, spice, and sweetness to them. Next was to try the sandwiches... My wife got the pulled chicken sandwich and as soon as she unwrapped it, she thought it was pork, as it looked chopped and was in extremely small pieces. She tried to eat it and wanted to enjoy it, but the texture was like sawdust, as it was chopped so finely. For me, I got the brisket and when I opened it, I felt like the beef was a little overdone, but the flavor was decent. The texture was tender, but slightly dry - it definitely needed sauce. As for those sauces - My favs were the mustard and the Texas - Both were flavorful and really nice. Overall - Not bad, but if I went back, I would totally try other items.
