Smoked ribeye from Mission BBQ

Today was my bday and we decided to try Missions smoked ribeye backplate special. This is slow-smoked and reverse-seared with an espresso rub that creates a melt in your mouth tender delicacy. Sauces are available, but we dared not alter the already intense smokey flavor. It came with 2 pieces of fresh corn bread. Ultimately, it help.create the best birthday ever and a meal to remember. Just a note that while I usually like my steaks rare to medium rare, this was not possible due to the smoking process. I assure you that you will not be disappointed by its flavor and tenderness. The ribeye is also not a regular item, so get them while you can.

HAVE to try the tulepo honey heat!!! Don't even bother with the rest.

Mission BBQ might be as American as it gets. Ribs and pulled sandwiches. Kitchen is efficient, food comes out fast and hot. Ambiance is quick service style, not fast food. I highly recommend the chicken sandwich with fries. Each table has a half dozen bottles of bbq sauce to put on your sandwich. You have to use the honey tulepo hot sauce! It's the best one.

Brisket, Chicken, Cornbread, Mac and Cheese

I use to frequent the Mission BBQ in King of Prussia and was never disappointed. That was pre pandemic and we've all noticed significant changes in the food industry since then but the meal I got at this location was just mediocre and not worth the price I paid for it. I don't mind the higher price we're paying be it dine in or take out but the quality must be there. I love brisket and look forward to that meat to fat ratio that makes it so mouthwateringly tender. This brisket had none of that. It was so lean and so dry and so wrong. It broke apart in brittle clumps like a cookie. I also had the chicken. It was kind of wet like it had been sitting in liquid. I can't explain it except to say I was expecting moist, smoked chicken l. The Mac and cheese was good, I enjoyed that but overall disappointed.

What's not to like about Mission BBQ? Patriotic theming, friendly staff, delicious BBQ at good prices. This place has it all. They currently have a Black Plate Special which is a Ribeye Steak for like $11.50. What?!? It was absolutely delicious. They also have great pulled chicken and pork, brisket and their jalapeño sausage is fantastic! Great sides too, delicious baked beans that have brisket in it, Mac n cheese that is super cheesy and their corn bread is warm and soft! We come here once or twice a month and are never let down.

Ribs, cole slaw, and beans

We stopped in to grab a quick bite. As you walk in the door, they make it a point to yell out a warm welcome. The ribs were delicious. Very meaty and tasty. We were there at the end of the day so they were a bit drier than we like. The brisket was very good, very tender, a little on the dry side, but I did order the lean cut. It was perfect with the sauce on it. The sides are large and plentiful. The baked beans were wonderful. A little Texas Twang sauce put them over the top. The Mac n cheese was delicious and creamy. The cole slaw will be skipped the next time. Not much flavor. Make sure to grab plenty of butter for the corn bread.

Plenty of room even w social distancing

Almost everyone appreciates the cause of Mission BBQ, support of our military and first responders. They are honored daily and even given premium parking right at the front door. But, what about the quality of the meats and sides offered in the kitchen? From my point of view the ribs, brisket, sausage, chicken and the savory sides, are all good to very good, but as with most outlets in the northeast, not nearly as excellent as available in the American South and Southwest. We seem to lack the cultural history that creates the awesome smoked meats and heavily flavorful sauces found in every back road smokehouse from Virginia to Florida and Georgia to Texas. Still, Mission is not a bad substitute when time for a road trip is lacking. I enjoyed the Baby Backs I sucked off the bone last weekend. The meat was tender, even if lacking crusty bark, smoke rings and thick, luscious sauces that are the true sign of authenticity. The Texas Twang and Tupelo Honey Heat were too thin to hold fast to the ribs, but remained at the bottom of the tray available for repeated dipping. My side choices of BBQ Beans and Cole Slaw were alright and completed the meal nicely. The corn bread was a small thin square, and somewhat dry, but sweet enough to remind me of what the real thing tasted like. So, until I have time to visit my sister in Newport News, my former bro-lo in Charlotte or friends in Austin, Mission will have to do. The folks there are friendly enough to make it a positive experience.

We ate here again on April 5 for Easter brunch and, once again, everything was on point. We tried…read morethe Rise and Shine Burger and the jambalaya; both were delicious. Jess was our server and was friendly, attentive.For dessert, we shared a banana dessert that was surprisingly light, and we also enjoyed a couple of espresso martinis topped with a chocolate image sprayed on the foam. The cage is consistent: great food & service. Always a great experience. We will be back!

Great atmosphere, very on theme with an upscale vibe. All of the drinks and food were delicious,…read morelots of really creative items with bold flavors and interesting combos!! We went for the happy hour app and drink specials for our birthdays, but because it took our server 15 minutes to come back and check on us, they wouldn't let us get the specials. (Felt intentional, like they were stalling) Our server was nice, but not attentive at all. I would have given it 4 or 5 stars if it wasnt so pricey and the service was better. We will definitely give it a weekend try, just in case it was an off night. Tip: I was not a fan of sitting in the half booth tables right by the hostess stand. It was extra dark and it felt more like where you sit while waiting for your actual table. Ask to be seated further in the dining room...it is really cool inside! Big parties can even get seated IN a birdcage!
