    Was dying for some good fried chicken. Since moving here haven't had any. This restaurant is right up the road so we.picked up some of their chicken.. OMG it is absolutely delicious, so crispy and flavorful. This will be my go to place for a fried chicken fix from now on.

    Barbecue is very good, and their fried chicken is great. Service is fast. Unfortunately there banana pudding is a little light on bananas.

    Chicken is soooo good. Also, don't sleep on the banana pudding. Just wish they had mashed potatoes. ‍

    Mission BBQ - Brisket, Pulled Pork, Coleslaw & Still some of the best BBQ Beans in Wilmington

    Mission BBQ

    4.3(259 reviews)

    $$

    We've been visiting Mission BBQ regularly since 2019, right after moving to Wilmington, NC, and…read moreit's consistently been a great spot for delicious barbecue. The food quality always impresses us, and the prices are some of the most reasonable in town--honestly, next to Costco's hot dog meal, Mission BBQ is the cheapest place to enjoy a lunch meal. As you can see from the attached photos my favorite meal is the 2- Sampler, Pulled Pork and Brisket with sides of Baked Beans and Coleslaw. These are the best baked beans that I have found in Wilmington and the coleslaw ranks high on my list. Depending on the cooking staff on duty that day there may be a slight variation in the coleslaw. My wife's favorite meal is their Pulled Pork Sandwich, and I will give her my cornbread which she thoroughly enjoys. What earns this restaurant 5 stars is their consistency of delivering great food over the years and I feel confident in recommending to Visitors and natives alike.

    First time at a Mission BBQ but based on the reviews, we decided to check it out. I got the Baby…read moreBack ribs and they were perfect. Juicy and smoked so nicely. Toothy and what I want in a rib. It didn't need any sauce at all but there were several to try on the table. I had to try to North Carolina Vinegar, South Carolina Zing, Kansas City Classic, Texas Twang and the Tupelo Honey Heat. My favorite was definitely the Tupelo Honey Heat. My meal came with corn bread and coleslaw. You can choose a side if you get the meal. I enjoyed the slaw. Very fresh. Could have used a pinch of salt. Not too sweet and not to mayonnaise- y. The service was friendly. Even though you pick up your food (which was FAST), there was a bus person (I think her name was Kayla) was awesome. Super sweet, asked us how our food was, if we needed anything, if it was our first time. She was very warm and welcoming. I give my first experience with Mission BBQ top marks. I'd go back again if my experience was as good.
