    The food was great!! 10/10 Brisket! I would highly recommend! We got takeout from mission bbq and it was ready within minutes. The brisket was amazing and so well seasoned. The Mac and cheese and the cornbread were my favorite sides. This bbq is the best in the area. My favorite sauce is the Memphis Belle which is the most comparable to a typical store bought bbq sauce (thicker not vinegar based). It wasn't busy when we went but I have heard it gets busy on the weekends! The restaurant is casual and has plenty of seating!

    Love Mission BBQ. This location is clean, service is friendly, and the food is always excellent.

    This is one impressive spot from what I could make of it 20 minutes before closing. The staff friendly and helpful, prompt and efficient. The place is decorated in honor of all those who have served in some way, on and off the field near and afar. The BBQ ribs were slamming good falling off the bone and the sauce options didn't disappoint (6 of them) they were all incredibly tasty. The pulled chicken was just as flavorful and juicy too. Cornbread tasted like dessert. I'm a fan. Au Revoir= 'til I return!!

    Brisket, coleslaw and baked beans

    Absolutely fantastic food. The brisket was phenomenal. Staff were helpful and kind. Overall, our favorite bbq joint so far

    I travel to Greenville several times a year and I have been trying to find BBQ joint to my liking. I finally found one. I'm not a fan of the eastern Carolina style BBQ. I love the variety of brisket, pulled not chopped pork, sausage, ribs. Also love their coleslaw it's not like the local chopped vinegar based. The service staff is also very friendly and accommodating.

    Clean establishment, sport and military memorabilia.

As soon as we walked up one the Pitt masters invited us in the back and showed us all the pits. We got to see the "whole hog" on the smoker. Then we ate the Chopped bbq. with a little of both the bbq and the vinegar sauces was good. Collard greens were tasty. But the pitt masters told us he liked the smoked turkey so we had to try it. I'm not a fan of turkey and this was excellent. Super tasty and moist. Only mistake was the cornbread. It's not your typical cornbread. We also had the sweet potato muffin which is a must try.

The chopped BBQ is very dry and bland, didn't have any of the allure of what you would expect of a smoked bbq in term of flavor/smell/appearance. We couldn't finish it because of how bland it tasted. The chicken was fine but nothing to rave about. The cornbread was certainly interesting - think it's the local way of making it so may actually be very authentic for greenville but can definitely be an acquired taste for someone not from the area. Overall, underwhelming for the food. The restaurant itself is very spacious with a relaxed feel to it. Service is friendly

    Fly from Miami to Raleigh-Durham with the primary goal of visiting a barbecue joint that's a…read morethree-hour round-trip drive away, located in a small town with virtually nothing else to see, and you'll understand how I view food experiences. There was a very real risk of wasting an entire day. Thankfully, Skylight Inn delivered in a big way. First, this is the kind of place that attracts everyone: police officers, construction workers, families, businesspeople in suits, and that's just on a weekday. That's always a good sign and something I love to see. Their whole hog Eastern North Carolina barbecue was absolutely worth the effort. It was incredibly flavorful and packed with texture. The crispy skin is expertly mixed throughout the meat, alongside moist pork and just enough rendered fat to create a perfect balance. Every bite had something different going on. The sweet tea was excellent, the slaw was solid, and the picnic-style potato salad hit the spot. The cornbread, however, deserves special mention. Unlike what most people think of as cornbread today, Skylight's version is made with only stone-ground cornmeal, water, salt, and pork drippings. It's dense, chewy, and rustic. No wheat flour, no sugar, and no fluffy crumb. It may not be everyone's favorite, but it's a fascinating piece of barbecue history, and I respect that they're still making it the traditional way. I came. I saw. I ate. Then I bought three pounds to go and grabbed a T-shirt on my way out. That's about as strong an endorsement as I can give. PS.....Walking the grounds is fun as well.

It was a Thursday and very busy but no so busy we had to wait very long. Just good to see all kind of people really for some BBQ. The food was fantastic and I loved the sides. I'm a big Cole slaw fan and this was very finely shopped up slaw with amazing flavor. They leave the crispy skin in the pork to give you these little yummy surprises as you eat. Plenty of room in the dinning area and a covered outdoor picnic table area.

This is a carry out or eat outside spot. The line was long, but they said it was because the chicken wasn't ready. They serve Carolina vinegar based "sauce". This was the most different part for me as I'm from Indiana and have never had vinegar based sauce. All in all it was very good and I completely understand why it has been a community staple.

    Things to know before going: 1) Cash only…read more2) Take-out only. There are a few tables outside, though. 3) Get there early, as in 9:30 or 10am. When they sell out, they close. If you wait until normal lunchtime you may very well be out of luck. So, the food. If you don't like Eastern Carolina style vinegar based whole hog bbq you will not like B's. Therefore no complaints about "sour" sauce, "tasteless" boiled potatoes, strange "potato sticks," or lack of sugary sweet tomato sauces will be tolerated. The cue is slow cooked over charcoal. Today the texture was a bit tougher than ideal but the flavor was pretty good and the chicken was very good, moist, tender, and flavorful. The sides are unremarkable but just fine. I'm normally not a big fan of the east of Wilson area corn sticks (give me hush puppies and honey butter any day) but B's are among the better ones. Prices remain more than reasonable and servings are generous.
