The only reason I gave the food 4 stars is because the bread could be fresher. It was a little dry and slightly was falling apart because of the dryness. But the flavor and taste of the pork was delicious. The frys were fresh and crisp. 6 sauces, #1 for me was the Texas twang. #2, Memphis Belle. The atmosphere is great. So much memorabilia on the walls. Proud to be an American.

Really good Brisket BBQ. The secret mustard based sauce was a great compliment. Great service. Nice employees. Clean facility. Fast service. Normal pricing for this quality. Plenty of free parking. I would definitely visit again. You should give them a try.

I’ve eaten here four times in the two months after always going to Goodyear for quality BBQ and these guys are great. They have changed by BBQ location preferences!
The restaurant is clean, the staff is friendly, helpful, attentive, the ordering is easy, the prices are fair and I find the food spectacular.
BBQ brisket, turkey, pulled pork, pulled chicken have all fricking rocked. At the tables they have a six pack of sauces for you to try if you wish. I really like four of the choices and two are not my cup of tea but I like the idea of letting you experience different flavors.
After you get your food they will come around to your table and chat you up a bit. Not aggressively, just kind of “folksy” to see how you are doing. One woman, Samantha, at the Surprise location my wife and I find to be a wonderful customer service person with a friendly, warm personality. I recommend you keep Samantha!!
Anyway, In my book if you haven’t eaten at Mission BBQ you are missing out. Keep up the good work here Mission team.

I’ve passed by this place many times. I’ve lived in Surprise for a year now, and came today for the first time. I ordered the 3-meat sampler tray with two sides. The meats: brisket; turkey; and pulled chicken. The sides: BBQ baked beans with brisket meat; and Cold Slaw (isn’t that Cole Slaw?). Dining in the tray came up fairly quick. When you take your seat they have six different sauces to try. The chicken and turkey were very good. The brisket was okay. It had an unusual crust that I’m not use to seeing on a brisket. I love burnt ends too, and this doesn’t come close to the K.C. BBQ I’ve had. The sides were very good. Great flavor, and the coleslaw was nice and creamy. They give you one square piece of corn bread. Typical corn bread. It wouldn’t take much to make it great: diced jalapeño, cheddar cheese, corn kernels, and honey. I sampled all the sauces. Nothing really wowed me. The K.C. sauce was not close to the sauces I’ve had when I lived in that city. My favorite being Slap’s located on the KS side of town. The hot honey was good. Texas was better than the K.C., but had a peculiar taste to it. The Memphis sauce strikes me as odd. I’ve always believed Carolina bbq was more on the vinegar side; Memphis was all about the dry rub; and K.C. was the sweet sauce. There were a few others named for West Virginia, and Louisiana(?). Something for everyone to try. I took leftovers home. I think this is the best bbq in the West Valley. Otherwise I’d take the drive to have Lil Miss by Sky Harbor; or the long trek to Caldwell County on Power Rd just north of the 202. To drink they had this commemorative cup for First Responders. The lemonade was refreshing. They have Pepsi fountain products, and an assortment of bottle beverages by the register as you enter. The restaurant is clean and spacious with a great decor that honors our servicemen. The restrooms are clean. And there’s plenty of parking in a Mall setting. Definitely come and give their bbq a try. You won’t be disappointed.

I’m beyond excited that Mission BBQ is coming to our area! I’ve visited their locations in other states and have always been impressedn not just with the amazing BBQ, but with their dedication to honoring our military, first responders, and American values.
The food is always top-notch (brisket and mac & cheese are my favorites), and the atmosphere is patriotic and welcoming. This will be a fantastic addition to the community, and I’ll be one of the first in line on opening day. Welcome to town, Mission BBQ!
Made it in couple days after opening. Brisket was amazing, I ordered the lean cut, tender, perfect smoke flavor and the bark was outstanding! Jalapeño Cheese Sausage was really good but will get classic next time. Mac and Cheese was really good, as were the Baked Beans. 6 different sauces on the table, favorite was Memphis followed by Texas. Also got to try sample of Turkey with Alabama White Sauce, amazing will be getting that next time. Bonus, the Sweet Tea is actually sweet! Overall exceptionally delicious and great customer service! Highly recommend!
Update; second visit was equally good as first, tried the Classic Sausage this time, really good! Memphis BBQ sauce is growing on me, smoky deliciousness.
Update: Tried the Baby Back Ribs, I’m addition to getting brisket again. They were really good, fall off the bone tender. Green Beans are also really good. This place is very consistent and outstanding customer service!
Update: Fried their Smoked Cheeseburger, it was really good,being smoked it was well done but the flavor was worth it. Bun and cheese were also good. French fries were crispy and fresh.

Very patriotic atmosphere, solid BBQ.
My party got 3 a three meat deal and 10 ribs. Mission BBQ is order up front, pickup up front with a very fast service time. The meats (pork, chicken, brisket, ribs) do not come pre-sauced and instead the customer applies their own. They offer 6 different sauces (Memphis Bell and Smoky Mountain are the best). Overall good BBQ, however without sufficient sauce the ribs are a bit dry, the brisket was not very tender and the chicken was a bit bland. Still good food for a good price. Would recommend, especially to patriotic individuals or veterans (they offer several discounts).

I’m so excited we have this excellent bbq joint in Surprise! The place was pretty crowded when we got there but the line moved quickly. We had an amazing girl, Saleen, at the register that helped with questions and she was so friendly! Seeing that it was our first time, we wanted to try a little bit of everything. I ordered the brisket, you get an option of “lean” or “juicy”…..of course I went juicy…give me that fat and flavor! The brisket was amazing – and VERY juicy. Hubby had the baby back ribs, which he enjoyed. But the star was definitely the grilled shrimp. Shrimp were huge, cooked perfectly and the flavor was amazing! The only part we didn’t care for was the sauce….we are not huge fans of the Carolina vinegar sauce. Food came out quickly, hot and delicious! We will definitely be back. Saleen also came around and asked how everything was and if we needed anything else – so nice! She was definitely a highlight as well!

This was my first time here. I tried the turkey and it was so delicious! The fries are great, loved the cornbread as well. I tried all the sauces and the Georgia mustard was my favorite!

Arrived around 2pm on a Friday, the restaurant was decently full but there’s definitely a good amount of seating available.
Ordered the brisket sandwich with a side of mac and cheese and it was definitely satisfying! My brisket was tender and juicy, NOT dry at all!
The smoky mountain bbq sauce as well as the Memphis belle are definitely my favorites.
Their sweet tea is good as well.
Will come back for sure!

Excited for BBQ! BBQ is about the Brisket and Ribs for me, that’s why I go and try BBQ.
This was a tough one. So I’m going to have to break it into tiers.

5 Stars
Mac and Cheese – nice crust on top, creamy but not goopy with good flavor.
Green Beans – great flavor and nice pieces of bacon.
Potato Salad – light and not overly creamy. Fresh and crunchy vegetables that provided a nice texture contrast that I really enjoyed!
BBQ Sauces – an actual wide range of different sauces and flavor profiles. My favorites were the Baja and Tupelo.
Brownie – maybe the best restaurant brownie I’ve ever had. Rich but not. Chewy but a little bit of crunch on the edge.
4 Stars
Jalapeño & Cheese Sausage – nice balance of heat and sweet. Not too spicy at all. Really nice overall flavor.
Classic Sausage – A quality, well prepared, simple piece of sausage.
Baby Back Ribs (not pictured) – in the middle of fall off the bone and doesn’t fall off the bone. I enjoyed the texture difference. Nice subtle flavors.
Fries – lightly salted, crispy and had unique flavor and texture.
Pulled Pork – nice smoke flavor with little parts charred providing texture and more flavor.
3 Stars
Brisket – On two separate days, the brisket here was just okay. Okay flavor. The moist cuts and lean cuts were dry and lacked a good bark (for my liking), and not much of a smoke ring.
CornBread – this is hit or miss. Day one is was dry, day two it was softer. Both days it was just cornbread, nothing special.
Strawberry Shortcake – the strawberries were sliced to a perfect size. The cake was not dry. It was good, but like the cornbread, it was simply okay.
Overall, the prices are more than reasonable compared to other BBQ restaurants. Their sides and brownies are absolutely delicious. I hope the Brisket gets better. Open for 2 days now!
The atmosphere is very family friendly and extremely welcoming. The staff are very attentive, friendly and professional.
