This has got to be the FRIENDLIEST place I've ever eaten. We were welcomed at the door, the staff kept making rounds to see if we needed anything. You would've thought we were at a Michelin star restaurant. I cant wait to go back. read more

Mission BBQ in Waldorf is always a great experience! From the moment you walk in, the staff is friendly, welcoming, and truly respectful. The food is consistently delicious the brisket is tender, the pulled pork is flavorful, and the sides (especially the mac & cheese and coleslaw) never disappoint. I also love the patriotic atmosphere and how they honor our military and first responders it really sets them apart. Portions are generous, service is fast, and everything is always fresh. This is definitely one of our go-to spots for a satisfying, feel good meal. read more

Mission BBQ is a convenient and reliable place to grab BBQ. It's nothing fancy, but it delivers decent, good food with consistently prompt service even when it's busy (which it seems to always be). The BBQ sauces are probably my favorite part of the visit, there's a nice variety, and they complement the food really well. One standout thing for me is that this is the only BBQ place I know of that serves steak, which is a rare (no pun) option. That said, I do wish they served beer to go with the meal, it feels like something's missing without it. Still, for a casual, fast, and filling BBQ meal, it gets the job done. While Mission BBQ won't blow you away, it's a pretty good place to visit when you're in the area. read more

Came here to visit after our lowes trip. We ate outside since it was a beautiful day out. Nice n breezy. This place sells Pepsi as their fountain soda. They also have bottles of other sodas on ice if you want other lower brands. They brought us all 6 bbq sauces and napkins after we ordered. I got the brisket (moist) platter with mac n cheese and peach cobbler. Kevin had the brisket (moist) sandwich with mac n cheese and potato salad. The potato salad is more savory and has some spice to it. Mac n cheese is good. The meat on both our servings was phenomenal! Nice shell/smoke ring to the brisket. We will be back.

I have been told numerous times to try Mission BBQ so here I go. First off the customer service is unmatched from the parking lot entrance to the exit. If you are dining in at noon be prepared for heart warming treat that reminds you of the sacrifices made for this country. The menu is full of options for the entire family. The prices are reasonable. There were so many flavors and sauces to try based on what region of sauce you want. The old fashion bottle drinks are a plus. read more

I had Mission in the Mechanicsburg PA area before and liked it. This time it was just average. The lean brisket was pretty good, but I didn't like the bbq sauces. I tried smoky mountain and Memphis belle and they were both far below expectations. It was so unfulfilling that I opted to use my Giant brand sauce in the refrigerator. The fries were decent and the turkey was not great. Even the cornbread was just meh. Nothing was bad (except the sauce), but I expected better. Maybe today was just a bad day in the kitchen, but it didn't inspire much confidence in me to make a return trip. read more

My wife recently picked up some takeout for me, and I have to say, it was an unforgettable meal. I started with the ribs, and they were outstanding. The smoky flavor was on point, and the meat was tender, perfectly seasoned with a dry rub. Nothing was too salty--it was just right. They served the sauce on the side, and I went with the Kansas City (KC) sauce. It was sweet, tangy, and had a nice little kick that took the ribs to another level. I ate those ribs so quickly I didn't even think to take a photo! The next day, I dove into the smoked wings, and they were just as impressive. I love chicken, and these wings were smoked to perfection. They had that rich, smoky taste that wasn't overpowering, just perfectly balanced. For a side, I tried the green beans, which were seasoned with brisket meat. I'd never had green beans prepared like that before, but I'm already on the hunt for a recipe to recreate that flavor--it was amazing. Then there was the cornbread, which was sweet and almost cake-like but in a really good way. It was moist and satisfying, adding a comforting finish to the meal. This place has definitely set a new standard for me. I'm used to other BBQ spots that claim to be the real deal, but this one truly stands out. I'll be going back for sure--this is a place worth revisiting. read more

It saddens me to give this establishment only 2 stars. Hubby and I (both veterans) arrived shortly after opening. Being 1st timers, we were unsure of the order and seating protocol, so we waited near the front door (for host/hostess to seat us). Employees working behind the counter made eye contact, but never directed us to come to the register. We decided to inquire and were then told the restaurant operates self service. Placed our orders, paid, made our drinks, found seats, waited and retrieved our food. Hubby's mac and cheese was quite tasty. Corn bread and smoked sausage were good, but the sausage wasn't thoroughly heated (center was cold). Baked beans and brisket were ok. I did appreciate the bbq sauce caddy. read more

This was my first time trying Mission BBQ. They are actually very good! The brisket was cooked just right, I really liked the Kansas City Classic BBQ sauce to compliment the smoky meat flavor. The chicken was fall off the bone soft. Mac & cheese was a very good homestyle with breadcrumbs. We will be coming back. This was very good food. read more

I love this Mission BBQ and what they stand for. The food is always so good and whoever is providing service is always nice and helpful. The ambiance is your typical messy BBQ eatery which is perfect. Plenty of sauces to choose from and a hearty meal. I would come back again. Specifically I'd like to share that I forgot to put something on my order and realized it after. The manager gave it to me anyway and said "thanks for your service." I wasn't expecting it but I was appreciative. read more

Mission BBQ hits it out of the park with flavor and heart. The ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender, seasoned to perfection with a smoky, savory rub that's packed with taste in every bite. Their mac and cheese is creamy and comforting--just the right balance of cheesy and rich. The string beans are fresh with a hint of seasoning, and the baked beans bring a sweet, hearty kick that rounds out the plate beautifully. Beyond the food, the staff are friendly, respectful, and always quick with a smile and the atmosphere is warm, and inviting. read more

Mission BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Waldorf, Maryland

Very GOOD! I patronized based on the recommendation of my physical therapy team at ATI Physical Therapy on Festival Way. They recommended I get the Meat Plate with XL combo. Overall, I don't eat meat UNLESS I have a craving. So, I got the Meat Plate with XXL Combo, an additional $7, with Salmon for an additional $5.50. All together, my order came up to a little over $33. But I got salmon for me, brisket, and pulled pork for my BF, with Mac and Cheese and peach cobble (which I'm shocked is a side), and lemonade. I tasted a pinch of the brisket and pork to write this review, and I must say, they are as good as I was told. Though I thought it was a bit pricey, I do plan to return. Oh, and Denary, at the register is a delight. Very mannerable. My only complaint is that they don't offer a tip option on the receipt. Because I WOULD'VE LOVED TO HAVE TIPPED HIM . Next time I go, I'll carry cash to ensure I can properly show my appreciation. read more

First time trying Mission BBQ after moving to MD. Mission BBQ was recommended by our realtor, Delaney Burgess, and it did not disappoint!! That Mac n cheese with the nice toasty top was fire! My brisket sandwich was huge, tender and flavorful. My husband's order was misunderstood (we're all human!) and the manager overheard it and jumped right in. Let's just say he went over and beyond correcting the very minor issue but wow! Talk about great customer service!! We were checked on multiple times and take out boxes were brought to us for our leftovers w/o us asking! Excellent experience and we'll be back! read more

Food slaps. Three meat sampler- ** Brisket - super juicy with a nice fat ratio! ** Baby back ribs - fell off the bone! ** Smoked sausage with jalapeno & cheese infusion (would be great also with white bread with some Hellmann's and mustard.) Sides- ** Greens ** Cornbread ** Baked beans (which I normally despise), but these had the right amount of sweetness and moisture. Hell, even their mac & cheese was nice....but the only thing slightly under seasoned and I would still give that an 8.5/10. Everything else gets a 10/10. First visit was to the Laurel store and this was the first time at this location and the food was just as good - better actually. They even give you an option of having brisket with or without fat. Seems kind of ridiculous to me cuz who wants "lean" brisket? Some good barbecue in DC? Yes please. Finally. Not that many places around here that do it well, but this happens to be one of them. read more

Mission BBQ is always a great experience in my opinion. I would have given it a 3 from this time but like I said, they are consistently good. This trip was like most. I saw their black plate special was smoked prime rib and it looked pretty good so I decided to try it. When it first came out, at first sight I was turned all the way off. It was red and juicy. Don't get me wrong, I love a medium steak but this thing was high red. The manager told me it comes rare. I kind of wished the young lady that took my order told me that! Nevertheless, I asked that they put it back in the oven for me to soak up some of that blood. They did it and it came out looking like the attached picture. It was soo tender and delicious. The seasoning was perfect. The sides weren't as good as I've had before. read more

Visted Annapolis Mission BBQ for lunch today with my elderly mother and husband. While waiting on my husband I had asked a gentleman if they had coffee and it was conveyed they did not but the gentleman I spoke with offered to run down to the donut shop to get coffee for my mom. Although I appreciated the offer I declined. He insisted and conveyed he needed to step outside anyway. He finally won me over and I agreed. Not only did he run and get my mother coffee he wouldn't take any money - I later found out his name was Justin and he was one of the managers. A big shout out also to Caitlyn who is the DR Hostess - she was very patient with my mother and kept talking with her. She later presented us each with a "free sandwich" card. Talking about going the beyond the call of duty. I cannot express my sincerest graditude to them both for making my mother's first visit there so special. In addition, the food was excellent as always. Thank you again for such a pleasant experience. read more

I tried mission lastnight in my search for a good bbq spot close to DC. There is a drought in good bbq in the DMV. I always start with the three meat sampler. I got brisket, baby back ribs, and turkey... I opted for the more lean pieces, the cashier explained it would be a dryer option than the fatty portion which would be juicer. I wasn't disappointed. I got all 6 dipping sauces and all of them were good except one, to me, that tasted like a light mumbo sauce, a dc carryout sauce thing, but it didn't appeal to me. The sauces are a great mix for the most picky tastebuds. I recommend them for their meat, I didn't try the sides, I don't want to judge a bbq spot on sides when the meat is the star. But I highly recommend checking them out. read more

I went to go visit Mission BBQ the other day with my husband and the food blew my mind away. I ordered the Moist Brisket, with the Mac and Cheese and Green Beans. The atmosphere was just so positive everyone had a smile on their face and all of the people in that establishment were very friendly. When my food was showed to me there was this young man named Kyrie even with all his energy he made us very welcomed, asked us how our days were, and made sure we had everything we need. I'm looking forward to visiting Mission BBQ again. read more

On Sunday Oct 9, 2022 Mission BBQ Waldorf Md., my wife and I purchased a takeout order. It was one of those days we had a taste for some really good BBR Ribs and I was looking forward to eating the ribs all day. One item on the order was the St Louis Style Ribs-10 bone. When I got home and tasted the St Louis Ribs, I was very disappointed. The meat fell off the bone, but the meat was tasteless, the ribs were so salty it was unbelievable. Perhaps the rub had too much salt, and the ribs were over seasoned, and I had to pitch them. Thank God I had the Sausage (Jalapeno) to eat, that is some good stuff. But the story gets better ....... Having been a regular customer, we have always had great service and the food was the best, so I was very surprised. I live 15 miles away, it was late in the afternoon, and it just isn't worth making a return trip to salvage my order. I was not a happy "camper" ......I seldom make complaints or write reviews but this time I did, and I went to the Mission BBQ web site and made my complaint. Thinking nothing would come out of it, I was wrong. To my surprise I had got a quick response from the area director, a fellow named Douglas with an apology, and he said he would send some gifts cards to make it right. Mission BBQ always has great food and service, and sometimes mistakes happen, and I am overwhelmed with their response in making it up with me and sending me a gift card. Customer satisfaction must be a high priority with Mission BBQ, and that goes a long way for me. I will soon be back for some great BBQ. Thank You Mission BBQ Waldorf Md for "Making it Right" ! read more

Food great, service great and manager Melissa was great! In the world we live in today, to walk into an establishment and be met with a smile and acknowledgment speaks volumes. Knowing how to serve your customers is everything. On my hubby and my first visit, Melissa came to our table introduced herself and chatted for a brief moment. The food was delicious then and the service was top notch. Now, several months later, we decided to go back and was not disappointed by the service or the food. Will definitely be back again. read more
