Also, I loved the moment when they played the National Anthem — such a great touch that shows their pride and values. Highly recommend Mission BBQ and a big shoutout to Kyle for going above and beyond!
I’ll talk atmosphere first and then transition to the food.. This location puts off an industrial lodge kind of vibe, with wafts of aroma from the smoker, and many vertical spaces adorned with military, law enforcement, and other donated patches, along with framed pictures, flags, and gear such as helmets.. I found myself meandering around the restaurant before ordering and after eating just taking it all in..
Let’s talk food now, shall we?!? Mission BBQ offers a handful of smoked meats including lean and moist brisket, pork, turkey, chicken, and sausage, all available as plated entrées or sandwiches..
There are a plethora of salads and sides to cater to any palate, and they offer a whole host of fountain and bottled beverages to wash everything down with..
On this visit, I tried the two-meat sampler with lean brisket and turkey.. I added the green beans and smoked corn on the cob, which was billed as a seasonal side..
As far as sauces are concerned, there are six different sauces tableside and a Baja Bold available on request at the counter.. I opted for the latter, a blend of habanero and mango that was decidedly sweet with a really nice kick!! I tried three of the six at the table, too..
The brisket and turkey were amply portioned, were moist, and had an incredibly balanced flavor.. The green beans were well seasoned and teeming with bits of white onion and bacon, which cemented their place as a savory side for the meal.. The smoked corn on the cob was good, too.. I enjoyed that it didn’t carry too much smokiness that would detract from what it is..
As an added bonus, Mission BBQ throws a really tasty piece of sweet cornbread out there to round out the meal.. My piece was moist and had a wonderfully sweet flavor..
All in all, they’ve thought about literally everything.. At the drink station there’s a repurposed tool box chock full of condiments, wet naps, and anything else you might need to enjoy your meal..
I am sold on the concept and they delivered outstanding eats and customer service to boot.. As another added bonus, they offered me their strawberry shortcake for being a first-time veteran guest, so that was just the icing on the cake.. Pun intended..
So, if you enjoy BBQ and have a Mission BBQ near you, saunter down and give them a try.. I doubt you’ll regret it..
My observation began with Kyle’s management style, which can only be described as abusive. He openly belittled and spoke down to employees in a manner that was both demeaning and disrespectful. I witnessed him making playful threats to staff members and engaging in conversations of a personal and highly unprofessional nature, creating a climate of palpable tension and exhaustion.
The pinnacle of this unprofessionalism was my direct encounter with him. After the cashier provided friendly and efficient service, Kyle’s delivery of my food was accompanied by a hostile attitude and a condescending way of speaking that was utterly shocking. His actions demonstrated a complete disregard for basic customer service standards and single-handedly ruined the entire visit.
This is more than a simple complaint; it is a demand for accountability. The presence of a manager who cultivates a hostile work environment and directly insults customers is unacceptable. I insist on a thorough investigation into Kyle’s conduct and a detailed explanation of the corrective measures you will implement. The current situation, as managed by Kyle, is unsustainable and demands your urgent intervention.
Respectfully,
Manuel
