If you are looking for great brisket, your search is over. I just had an incredible brisket sandwich at Mission. And when I say incredible, I mean one of the best I ever had. I ordered mine "wet" and it was very moist and tender. Then, I had a lot of fun choosing one of the various sauces to go with it (although it would have gone down just as easy without). The only negative ... There is no Mission near my home in Vienna VA. So, for now, I can only fill my craving when I travel. I hope someone from Mission reads this and considers a new location in VA. We have been deprived too long! Needless to say ... If you crave BBQ, find a Mission near you. I highly recommend. read more

Mission BBQ - Not fake meat! - Barbeque Near Me - Nottingham, Maryland

Have always enjoyed Mission BBQ. The service is just as good as the food is. We love this place so much, we had them cater our wedding! The start was amazing and even got pictures with the infamous truck! If you haven't been here, you are missing out. If you know, you know! read more

After only 2 weeks in this area, I can say this is my favorite place to eat so far. The staff is courteous. The pulled pork is fantastic. The Mac is flavorful and like homemade. The green beans are flavored with bacon and tender. Nice selection of sauces for anyone's taste. I will say the brisket I had here in the past was fatty, and I prefer the pork:) I would recommend this place for BBQ. They also support the wounded warrior project. Thumbs up guys. My only desire here: alcohol selection!!! I want some whiskey with my BBQ! read more

Mission BBQ - Pulled pork, green beans, Mac, and corn bread. - Barbeque Near Me - Nottingham, Maryland

Moist barbecue, good sides and the sauce selection is pretty good! Hands down a favorite when it comes to BBQ

Over cooked, dry brisket. I typically visit the Glen Burnie location and was very disappointed that this facility didn't meet the standard Mission BBQ norm. The cashier never asked lean or moist. I informed the 'floor manager' who didn't seem surprised, despite being informed that it was dry and overcooked. He did offer to 'replace' it, but that may have been lost in translation after he began speaking about a Greek restaurant and how customers never leave hungry when he's there. I did leave hungry. read more

Mission BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Nottingham, Maryland

A great establishment to visit. Super tender and flavorful pulled pork. All of the side dishes are delicious.

Ribs, brisket and cornbread. Those are my favorite things . Most items are al la carte but you can mix & match. They also have a kids meal.

If you are looking for great food, wonderful service and an atmosphere of heroes everywhere you look, this place is for you!

I have never received service this great at a fast food restaurant. And when I say fast food, they are fast! My entire experience, service wise, was perfect. All their employees seem eager to work, and they were all helpful. Restaurant is very clean and I like the chill atmosphere and open seating. Everything in the kitchen is visible and it was a nice experience. However, I am disappointed in the food. For the amazing reviews the food wasn't mind blowing. My brisket Sandwich, which I did get the lean version, was OK. The meat was tender and soft but loaded with salt. I don't know how you can enjoy it without bbq sauce. Good thing they got 7 to pick from. When it comes to sides, they were delicious. Loved the baked beans and corn bread was on point! I think I'm gonna come back and give them another chance for the fifth star because everything else was perfect. Just the salty ol brisket. read more

Mission BBQ - Brisket and beans post Workout! - Barbeque Near Me - Nottingham, Maryland

See all

Mission BBQ has come a long way from when they first opened that's for sure! The brisket is very very good the only complaint I have is oh about an hour after eating it I am glued to the porcelain queen if ya know what I mean . Their baked beans are second to none, my wife loves the sausage and the chicken! I only wish and this is a suggestion to the management I and other customers would like to see burgers on the menu. Fresh made not frozen patties. Great job guys read more

This was my first time there and I had no clue how anything worked. The lady at the counter helped me out and told me about the different sauces. I forget what we went with as it's been a bit but we didn't really like it. We prefer ours a bit sweeter. And no one in my house was a fan of the rolls. So we will probably stick to the pit beef place closer to our house for now on. At least I know everyone will be happy with their meal from there. read more

Went to Mission for the first time to celebrate my mother in laws birthday. She was craving some BBQ and we had wanted to try it out. We pulled up to the strip mall location. There was a line out the door on a Friday night. We crammed in the line and looked over their to the point menu. Ribs (spare and baby back), brisket, pulled pork and chicken, sausage, and some sides. The line moved quickly and I sent my wife to scout a table in the full restaurant. The ambiance was fine. Concrete floors, exposed ceiling. Some brick and wood. Two features stuck out. The restaurant is covered with military and first responder patches and memorabilia. Also the front door has carved and stained wood Maryland flag. Both features were cool and very fitting for Missions' values. We ordered Mac and cheese for the kids, pulled chicken for the MIL, babyback ribs for my wife, and a combo plate for me. We tried the coleslaw and green beans as sides. I was a little disappointed when the cashier tried to convince us to get it to go because we had not secured a table. I explained that we were there to celebrate a birthday and wanted to dine in. She obliged. The food came up quickly, just as wifey beat another table stalker to the table that just opened. Someone came from behind the counter to help run the food to our highly coveted real estate. The six of us crammed in a 4 top booth, which I capped with a free chair. The food was served on tin trays. I consolidated some of them to give us room. I guess they are primarily for getting the food from the counter to the seat. The food was amazing. My wife is a rib snob, but was pleased with the fall of the bone and Smokey meat. I loved the moist brisket and pulled pork with the creamy slaw. I am a slaw snob. I found it needing a little more seasoning and acid. But it was a solid 3 out of 5. The MIL enjoyed her chicken so much that she forgot to nag me about making a honest woman out of her daughter. We devoured the green beans with brisket ends. The kids liked their Mac and cheese. We were thankful that it wasn't something obviously from a box. I tried all the sauces. My favorites were the Texas Twang, Honey Heat, and Georgia Mustard. All were good sauces. Pick your favorite style and slather it up. The star of our visit was Charlie, a former Navy coreman. He visted our table several times to check on us, despite Miision BBQ being a counter service establishment. He apologized for the wait for a table. He offered to get us refills on any of our food items-- which we didn't need because the portions were generous. He told us a few stories from his time in the Navy and did a good job helping us to relax. Between the food and the service, we would be silly not to go back. We are adding Mission to our regular location. Thank you, Charlie and team. read more

Management take pride in this location!! Food always great and presentation of food perfect! I recommend Joppa Road location

This is not BBQ - it's more like Taco Bell is to Mexican food than anything else. Overall, would have to say the food here is barely edible. Sausage is insanely salty, fatty beef is dry as a bone, pulled pork was best of the bunch but needed the cole slaw to have enough moisture to make it work. Also got a couple of ribs - one St. Louis style and one Babyback. Smoked BBQ ribs have a deep but balanced combination of smoke and rub and do not simply fall off the bone - the texture needs to hang on the bone so you get a combination of bark, fat and meat in every bite. These were a floppy, sloppy mess. There's no reason to go back to this or any other Mission location. Yuk... read more

Meat that falls off the bone and will have you melting at the incredible spice combinations.

Some of the best smoked BBQ I've ever had. Staff is always friendly. The portions are pretty big. I tried the pulled pork sandwich and the flavor was just right. Can't wait to visit again. read more

Keep up the great work. Food is exactly as described and quite good. Compliments to the chef for kicking out home cooked gems every single time. read more

This is a very friendly and clean establishment. You are treated with a smile and not rushed to order. It's a pleasant environment and great for a family lunch or dinner. The food is pretty good as well. My favorite are the ribs and pulled pork, it's nice that they offer lots of flavorful sauces and limitless drinks to wash down your meal. read more

*PLEASE READ BELOW FOR UPDATES! My issue is not with the food but lack of employees. I tried to place a big party order and waited 20 minutes while the cashier waited on customer after customer while I tried to place this order! I didn't want to do it by phone because I wanted to see what things looked like. They just lost a big order because I'm so aggravated! This update October 5,2017 The area manager answered this complaint the next day and apologized profusely. He promised a gift card which after 2 weeks didn't show so I emailed again and after that I came home from work to find an envelope in my door which contained a $50 gift card (!!). Plus he enclosed a gift certificate for dinner for 10!!!!! This shows you everything about a company and their appreciation of their customers- thank you Eric for fixing the problems in spades! Update 8/4/18 Just now using that party for 10 gift cert-and had another meal here--they are very helpful-meat is great (love the Mac and cheese), and they even carried my mom's tray when they saw her cane. Great when people show you they care! The manager came over too. I obviously caught them on a bad day when I first posted last year. read more

Amazing place. Always honoring our military and law enforcement. Plus the food is amazing.

Great food, even better service/staff. Orders always correct, staff always friendly and food always delicious.

Delicious 2 meat sampler platter. Everything was great. The meats and the sides as well as the atmosphere. Definitely recommend the food here. read more

Food is always fresh and flavorful. Changed the macaroni and cheese recipe so I am no longer a fan but the green beans are absolutely perfect. Try the turkey if you haven't it's a nice surprise moist and delicious bbq flavor. read more

I have never had a bad experience at Mission BBQ. I realize Maryland is the place for pit beef, but its just not my thing. Mission BBQ has several other menu options, like pulled pork, chicken, ribs, sausage and the turkey is to die for. Try the turkey with the Memphis Belle sauce. I love all of their sides, especially Maggie's MacNCheese. Fast and courteous service always keep me coming back. read more

I love Mission BBQ. The food is always fantastic. I live close so this is one of my go-to places for a quick meal that I know will always be good as a mofo lol read more

Great food and staff is always welcoming! You get more than enough for the price as well. Highly recommended and will be returning.

Not only does Mission have excellent food, but also the best customer service you could ask for at a restaurant. As soon as you walk in, you're immediately greeted by half of the staff. After the order has been placed, anyone you talk to makes you feel like they actually care you are there. Then once you're seated and eating, there are staff members walking around asking you if you need anything or just to ask how awesome your food is. Customer service doesn't get any better than this! read more

Mission BBQ - BBQ Spaghetti topped with brisket. Mac and cheese, creamed corn on the side. - Barbeque Near Me - Nottingham, Maryland

Great location, great food, amazing mission, and super nice manager/owner(?) I love Mission BBQ, I've been to three different locations and they've always been great but my visit to this one was exceptional and prompted me to write this review. The manager or owner came around and greeted every table and offered some free food. read more

I have eaten at Mission BBQ a handful of times and I have to make my review. The food is wonderful. But the service at the Mission BBQ on E. Joppa Road is absolutely AMAZING!!! The cashiers are SO SO FRIENDLY!!!! The food is always consistent and good. Businesses around the area can learn a thing or two from Mission BBQ. Keep up the GREAT WORK. read more

Food was good. A little pricey compared to the size of the portions. Staff was friendly. Place was clean. Hand washing station against the wall to get the BBQ sauce off your hands. Good beer selection! They accept donations for USO. read more

Mission BBQ - Meat sampler platter. - Barbeque Near Me - Nottingham, Maryland

Always consistent good food. Friendly, efficient staff Also great for catering for an event

Food was very good and the staff is very friendly. We enjoy the memorabilia. The new Bel Air store is great.

The food was great. I had pit beef my sister had the chicken. They were both exceptional. Loved my green beans

One of my favs especially for BBQ they never fail. Always delicious! That Alabama white sauce is good on everything! Get the beef brisket sandwich and don't forget something sweet they got great gobblers read more

The rub on the baby backs was so salty it was almost inedible. Potato salad was very good, as was the corn bread. Wife had "moist cut" brisket, which was quite moist but I question how much time it had spent in a smoker. Not much of a smoke ring there. There was a guy on staff circulating around, ostensibly to check on quality and bus. He walked up and broke into a spiel about being a former Corpsman. OK, a little random. Later, he came back and started telling us about the weird people he had seen when he worked at Walmart. All in all, it was Okay but I wouldn't make this a regular stop if I was local. read more

I go here almost every Friday. Good eats. Never had a bad server. Some (like Charlie) are even very interactive throughout the experience. They check in once or twice to make sure all is well, and often being out free samples. There are multiple TVs, often displaying sports and the news. The bathrooms are clean. The soft drinks, straws, spoons, forks and lids are easily accessible and organized. There is even iced tea and lemonade fresh. Free refills on unbottled drinks. At the table there is a container with 6 unique and uncommon sauces such as Smoky Mountain and Bay-b-q, but of course ketchup is available too. Waiters will greet you when you enter and take your trays when you're done. It's pretty fine here. I hope they get vegan options soon. Overall it's pretty great, friendly, and organized so why not give it a try. They're open all days of the week and they have free parking. You'll often see members of police or military inside, with an option to donate money to those that serve to get a cool cup. Have fun y'all. read more

Mission BBQ - Entrance - Barbeque Near Me - Nottingham, Maryland

Delectable. My go to meal is the brisket sandwich with Mac and cheese!! and 5 spare ribs

I went to 2 other bbq joints looking for a family meal and could only find something of that sort here. However for 58.00 one would think rolls and a drink would be included. I'm a veteran and wasn't even asked. And yet this place is supposed to support local vets. I will not be coming back. I mean hell napkins we're not even included. Smdh. Food was ok the beans and macaroni were so so but the brisket was really dry and like I said rolls were not even included read more

I was still craving brisket after the beefy deliciousness I tasted this past weekend, so I stopped by today around 12pm. This brisket is so dry, hard, flavorless, and tough. What happened? It's like beef gum. Usually, I let bad food experiences go, but I must contact the company. For $11.43, I expect a better product! Is this brisket from yesterday? Update: 02-02-17 I contacted Mission BBQ via their website. I received a response within 8 hours. Kudos to them for not making excuses and using this as a learning experience. As a result, more respect for the company and a return visit from me. Any restaurant that supports our service women and men deserves a second chance. Also, the customer service here is exemplary! Shout out to Megan for making my lunch experience on 02-18-17! I like meeting nice people and dining in a friendly atmosphere! *01-08-18 I waited over 10 minutes for a brisket sandwich and fries. At least 7 customers were served before I was. Why, I don't know? read more
