My Fiancee and I stopped in yesterday for V-day lunch. We talked to Mission a week prior about catering our wedding. So, this was as much a date as it was a trial tasting. The food was all cooked very well. Even turkey which typically dries out - was very juicy and smokey. The selection of sauces; all were different and flavorful. The staff was very kind and apologetic for the long wait. It took us almost 20 minutes in the line. Which we joked about with Abigail at the counter. There was no need to apologize.... if they have this long of a line at 2pm... it must be worth the wait, and it was. We are a decent ways away from this location - but will definitely make a trip back! read more

Mission BBQ - Brisket, chicken, and turkey. - Barbeque Near Me - Northville, Michigan

The people working are always SO incredibly nice. Today, the guy refilling the drinks got me a straw and lid and asked how my day was. The workers alone make you want to return. Today I had the moist brisket sandwich, always love it! There were a few really big pieces of fat that I wish they trimmed off but it was overall really good. I do occasionally find some dry pieces but I do know it's so hard to smoke perfect brisket. I love the causal ambiance here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You order at the counter and can sit wherever you want.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bbq sauces are on each table and you can just do your own thing![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Mission BBQ - Brisket sandwich - moist - Barbeque Near Me - Northville, Michigan

I have been to this location for carry in the past. I also had them cater a work event and people loved it., so we had them cater again. The only suggestion that I can make is the green beans with no meat had a strong spice to it which over powered the green beans. The Mac and cheese was a little burnt on top . I know people like that, but it was a little dry. The smoke turkey is great and so is the brisket. I recommend you try them. read more

Got the two meats sampler and the collard green as well as fries. The issues were that the brisket was a bit too salty and tough. The turkey was juicy but still a little bit dry. The turkey was also a bit too salty for me. The honored my preference of fries with no salt which was good. The collard greens were not too heavy. The cornbread was pretty good. The best part of the experience was the service as the staff were very friendly and they stopped at 12:00 noon to sing the national anthem as they do everyday - I can see why veterans like this place so much. And also the portion was a bit small even though it's probably standard. I do wish that the meat was a bit less salty to make it more tasty. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good atmosphere and service just a bit too salty for me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We have been to Mission BBQ before and while my husband really likes it, I've always been meh about it. Today though, I got the baby back ribs which fell off the bone. I was excited based on that, thinking they'd be delicious. I was so, so wrong... they were so salty I couldn't even eat them. I got a side of cheesy potatoes; those were good. My husband had the pulled pork, mac n cheese, and cornbread. I didn't try the pork, but the mac and cornbread were also good. For the two of us, it was $30. The staff was really nice and friendly. The wait for our food took longer than normal as they were working on a catering order at the same time. Unfortunately, I'm not dying to come back. read more

This restaurant supports veterans and they register you so you get notified of special events. I had the pulled chicken sandwich and baked beans, my wife had the Turkey sandwich. The chicken was overflowing the bun and I tried all the sauces, St Louis was my favorite, a little sweet and tangy. The turkey was also plentiful and tasty. The baked beans are delicious with pieces of brisket. We also received 2 complimentary desserts that were delicious. Really good food and service. read more

Decent bbq place. 6 different sauces to choose from. Order at counter and delivered to table. Prices were high by my standards but probably what is standard these days... $13ish for meat or sandwhich and sides are $3-4. We paid $38 for 2 meals, 2 sides and a drink. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was clean and decorated nicely.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Bathrooms were single person use.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was cold in there (my wife said). I thought it was ok. It is winter outside so that may inflience the temp a little as the door open and closes[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. read more

Mission BBQ - Brisket and mac&cheese with some corn bread. $16ish as of 1/25 - Barbeque Near Me - Northville, Michigan

Went to this place for the first time wanted to get some barbecue on a random Tuesday. When we came inside The manager was super friendly and very informative. Gave me a rundown of what they offered and honestly we had to get a little bit of everything. Food was fantastic. Lots of options for the barbecue sauces at the table and hospitality was really nice. unexpectedly They brought some dessert for us to try as a hello and welcome to our first time at the establishment. I highly recommend. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Came in for a work lunch the other day with some co workers and was surprised with the military and police decor I wasn't aware that was their theme, I liked that and thought it was pretty cool![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They had a great selection of their bottled drinks displayed right when you walk in, one unique drink they had was Yoo-Hoo, another positive in my book! They have a good selection of meats , everything you'd expect from a bbq joint, pulled pork, brisket, pulled chicken and jalapeño links. I got a two meat combo with two sides. Got the lean brisket , it was good but a bit too dry, I guess I could try the regular cut next time, pulled chicken which was also kinda dry, but both had a good taste. Overall I think it's very difficult to find any good BBQ in Michigan so this place is definitely a good option if you're craving bbq! Nothing to write home about but I will definitely be back. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Friendly staff as well, and the place seemed clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Mission BBQ - Black plate special with shrimp, coleslaw and the best collard greens I ever tasted! - Barbeque Near Me - Northville, Michigan

Mission BBQ is an order at the counter and have a seat restaurant, which I didn't realize. It was fine, but we meet friends there and we would have enjoyed being waited on and served. For this type of restaurant and the portions of food, it was over priced! At least we didn't have to tip. Hubby and I thought the food was good but not $40 good. The brisket was tender, mac and cheese was good, baked beans were alright along with the corn bread. The restaurant was decked out with military memorabilia and it had some unique touches. But with the high prices and distance from our house, we won't return. read more

Mission BBQ - Smoked Sausage, pulled pork, mac and cheese, and fries - Barbeque Near Me - Northville, Michigan

I know brisket can be hit or miss, but this time it was some of the best I've ever had! Moist without being too fatty and seasoned very nicely. It was also a very generous portion for the price. The selection of sauces is the best of any BBQ place I've ever been to. They were ALL very solid. Mac and cheese was a solid B+ but the fries were cold and over seasoned. It can be really hard to get fresh cut fries right. These were not right. To get high moisture potatoes like these crispy, you need to fry them twice. I would prefer frozen fries cooked properly over these. Cornbread, well.... I saw a lot of uneaten, dry cornbread on people's trays. Biscuits would be a great upgrade. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I know their business model revolves around military and first responder personnel (which is completely awesome!), but the decor of patches and stickers everywhere has gotten out of control to the point of being kind of distracting to the dining experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] May be time for a "less is more" approach. read more

Food at the Northville location is always over cooked, you order moist, you get dry , burnt, over salted, tough, hard, inedible rocks of meat, Like 3 week old beef jerky, I have giving them too many opportunities for this Northville location. The can't make good bbq. The last 3 years they have gone downhill so bad to the point I don't even wanna go anymore. read more

Superior food, and amazing tasty BBQ, and great sauces are what define this restaurant chain. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is All American pro military and pro public safety services[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Although a bit pricey perhaps compared to other places the high quality food and excellent management are well worth the price and worth interacting with. Both female managers I interacted with were amazing and one gave us four free sandwich card as I mentioned we were first time customers. I apologize as I forgot their names as our visit was before Labor Day. The long drive of 30 minutes was well worth the trip. If you are hankering for great BBQ this is a great treat. We tried everything they had and traded dishes so we all sampled everything between three of us. If you have a favorite get it, but there is nothing that was bad or average all were amazing. read more

Thank you to Mission BBQ and Grant for dropping of food to my place of employment. This was such a great gesture as we were able to ask questions about catering in the future. Grant was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of our questions. We will definitely be ordering from Mission bbq for our next meeting. read more

Always great food but the people who work here are always so kind. The kindness of the staff and especially the manager (at least I think she was the manager) was unbeatable. The way they interacted with my family and treated us was a reason in itself to keep on returning. read more

We were staying nearby and wanted an early dinner since neither of us had really had lunch that day. We arrived around 4:30pm and there was no line. We both went with the brisket and made it a combo with potato salad and mac & cheese. Each order comes with a side of corn bread, which was nice. The meat itself was pretty moist and juicy. I liked that they had 6 different sauces for you to try at each table. The one I liked the most was not the same as my husband's favorite, so it was fun to kind of mix and match. It's not as good as Texas BBQ, of course, but it was good and hit the spot. read more

You can't beat the customer service here, it is always top notch. Tonight we enjoyed the pork platter (my go to) with fries and Mac & cheese. My husband tried the black plate special (Hawaiian smoked ribeye) with smashed potato, and we shared the peach cobbler. Everything comes out hot, fresh, and very flavorful. Make sure and try all the bbq sauces, the mustard and NC vinegar are my favorites! read more

guess I should have studied this place before going for the first time. not a budget friendly place by any means. everything is ala carte. sandwich, fries and a drink was $33.00 for 2 people. What's with the cold buns? meat was good and plentiful but bun was cold. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also I'm a patriot and a veteran but when you're on a limited time lunch, the standing for the star spangled banner was just too much for me. I get the whole thing but less is sometimes more.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Had no idea that we were supposed to stand there until they yelled out our name to get our food. didn't feel comfortable at all. probably won't go back read more

Customer oriented and friendly service. We receded a nice and very friendly welcome. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Restaurant is roomy and a great BBQ ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had take out for Saturday lunch. The brisket was very good and was a Texas style. Would definitely recommend them. Of the sauces, we liked the KC Classic the best. The baby back ribs were not great and seemed to have been cooked a few days before. I probably wouldn't have the ribs again. Both countries came with a big piece of cornbread which was just ok. The baked beans with brisket and the green beans with bacon were both exceptional and highly recommended. I also tried the seasonal potato salad and were kind of disappointed. read more

Staff staff staff! Holy crap the staff was amazing and absolutely the highlight of the visit. We came with a pretty big group of coworkers for lunch on a weekday and we were very well taken care of. As we were ordering individually, we were asked if it was our first time eating here, which is was for me and one other coworker. I thought they were going to just explain the menu but they went above and beyond and welcomed us with some chocolate chip cookies. It was a very thoughtful gesture. For my entree, I got the pulled chicken with mac and cheese and green beans on the side. I wish the meal plates would come with a side, you have to get it separately. The meal plate did come with some cornbread though. The chicken, green beans, and the mac and cheese were alright. On the tables there's six different types of BBQ sauce, seven if you include the vinegar. None of them were really speaking to me, but they're different enough where you will likely find one for you. Overall, the service and the staff really carried the entire experience. Check them out! read more

Came to Detroit for a football game and a baseball game this weekend. This restaurant is nearby our hotel and Costco, so we went in. Very impressed about the decoration inside of the restaurant. I ordered full rack/10 bones with cold slaw, they were amazing! The meats just slipped from bones as the moment I picked them up. Cold slaw was fresh, not too much sauce, PERFECT !!!! Strongly recommended to try them! (They did not ask for tip unlike LA's restaurants! ) We are here for four days, I hope we have a chance to come back again to try meat samplers!! read more

Mission BBQ - 10 bones of baby back ribs combo. - Barbeque Near Me - Northville, Michigan

See all

Mission is a very good chain BBQ place. It's consistently good. The meat and sides are served a la carte, but you can get a sandwich and make it a combo. The first time I went, I tried brisket, ribs, collards, and Mac. You know it's already ahead of the game when they let you choose from fatty or lean brisket. I love that they don't cook their meat in the sauce. You don't really need the sauce at all, but if you want to make it lean towards a more regional style of bbq, they have several options of sauce to choose from. The second time, I had the yard bird half chicken. It was moist and tasty. They also give you a piece of cornbread. They have Pepsi products, but their lemonade and tea is stand out! They have a rotating special entree. One time we went it was a burger and the next it was bbq shrimp. They have a main menu of sides that don't change, but they have a couple of seasonal sides that they do rotate. Their customer service is excellent. Both times we went, someone came by and asked how we were doing and how the food was, even though it's not a restaurant where you have a server. read more

Mission BBQ - OUTSTANDING Lunch! - Barbeque Near Me - Northville, Michigan

I've been to a few different Mission BBQ locations, and I live right by the Troy one. If you sign up for their email list, they send you a free sandwich coupon after Christmas every year and also for your birthday. I had the Christmas coupon to use so my boyfriend and I stopped here tonight for dinner. I got my free pulled pork sandwich and he got the meat combo plate, which includes two meats, a fountain drink, and a side; he chose the cheddar jalapeño sausage and brisket, along with cheesy potatoes. I've had the pulled pork sandwich before and it's very good, plus I really like MBBQ's sauces - the Smoky Mountain and Memphis Belle are my two favorites. His brisket was very good too, but the sausage was a bit too spicy for me. The cheesy potatoes were also very good. Pulled pork (1 meat, no sides) starts at $8ish here and brisket goes up to $12ish, with sandwiches being cheaper. They also have chicken and turkey options. I'll be back sometime in January with my birthday coupon but I may get a brisket sandwich that time, since the brisket was really good. MBBQ hires veterans, too, which is also nice, and also honors veterans; I forget if there's a discount or not though. read more

Our delivery food service for our Michigan family Independance Day celebration was top notched. Alexandra, the catering coordinator, was responsive and helpful regarding dietary needs of some of our family. Food was hot and delivered on time. Nikki, who set up the table, was delightful. And the reviews, even from some of our more picky eaters, were good. I was happy to discover Mission BBQ has a couple of stores near our hometown in Wisconsin. Definitely will frequent one of them. read more

Great food and service Would recommend this place to anyone hankering some BBQ. Potions are good and plentiful.

As a Texas resident - BBQ in other areas is never quite right. However, This is a decent option when traveling in the Detroit area. I didn't realize it was a chain - so I've actually been to 2 of these in the area. The brisket & sausage were the 2 best meat options. The pulled pork wasn't my favorite. The greens were amazing!! Corn bread was great too. The sweet tea is brewed (not the Nestea fountain crap). If you're not familiar, the restaurant is "First responder" & military themed. That part of the experience was awesome. As a veteran, it was heartening to see this level of appreciation. Because of these things combined w the food gives the pace an "extra star". The young man that served our plates was very chatty & it was cool to hear about his father who served in the military (a later of multiple languages :) ) read more

Mission BBQ - Brisket, pulled pork, salads, greens & corn bread. - Barbeque Near Me - Northville, Michigan

It was good. It was not great. I'd eat here again but I'm not rushing back. The good: Brisket is tender, both moist and lean. Get moist if you like fat, lean if you don't but both are good choices. Chicken is good. No weird bone or cartilage which is my huge pet peeve. Not dry, even without sauce. Turkey is nice. It had the most smoke flavor for my palate and again was not dry at all despite it being white meat. The smashed potatoes are delicious. They look like hell and like they'll be bland and dry but they were easily the best side. My husband had sweet tea. I had unsweetened. Delicious, both versions. I added some of their store made lemonade to my refill of tea for a Arnold Palmer-ish deal and that was awesome too. The meh: The sausage is just ok. A bit tough and a bit bland. I am damn picky about sausage so you may not be as disappointed as I was The Mac and cheese is bland and the elbow macaroni was mushy. The potato salad was literally just cubed potatoes in a mustard sauce. No celery or onion or egg or ANYTHING. Not a fan. The cornbread was dry. Everything was served room temp. The smoke is light to nonexistent. This is weird for BBQ. They have six sauces. 3 were awful. Full stop. Like omg why. 1 was okayish- the Texas one. 2 were goodish- the St Louis Red and Memphis Belle. read more

Mission BBQ - Spare ribs - Barbeque Near Me - Northville, Michigan

Went to Mission BBQ on a rainy Monday night. Not a lot of people in the fairly spacious restaurant. This is one of those places where you order at the counter & they call your name when your order is ready (in about 3 minutes!). It did have a kind of fast-food feel about it because of that, but I was pleasantly surprised by the food. I got pulled pork and brisket, both of which were good -- except that I couldn't tell one from the other. Yet, I enjoyed them both! I also got a side of cole slaw which was pretty much perfect for my taste -- a bit sweet but also a bit tangy. My sister and her boyfriend both got the ribs and they enjoyed them as well. I tasted the baked beans, and those also were good. This place is MUCH better than, say, Dickey's (although it doesn't have free ice cream nor the specials like Dickey's does). I will definitely be back. read more

I've been to the location in Troy and it was a very good experience. I'm hoping the one here is just as good. I ordered the 2 meat sampler, 1/4 pound of chicken and 1/4 Turkey with the beans and collard greens, 3 side salads with Italian dressing, Turkey and sausage with potato salad and fountain drink, signature salmon with Mac and cheese and cole slaw. The salmon is okay, bit dry. The collard greens are bland. The cornbread is super dry. The salad is okay. The pulled chicken isn't bad. The Turkey slices are too few and dry like the dessert. The beans are good. The jalapeño and cheese sausage wasn't too bad. The food overall was so-so. All of the meat and proteins were way too dry. $53.94 total. read more

I've been to two different Mission BBQ's and they seem the same. Definitely a military influence in decor and attitude. Being a Veteran myself I found it refreshing to be appreciated for my service, and this place makes me feel welcome. BBQ is good. For my tastes, maybe not as good as what I find in the hill country of Texas but better than most. Even the side dishes are good for high is often an issue with good BBQ places. Both places seem to keep the AC setting on pretty low. I found both cool but I'm there for the food and was not disappointed. Drinks are pour your o n from dispensers with tea and lemonade available. If you like BBQ you will be pleased with a visit to Mission BBQ. read more
