MISSION BBQ

Mission BBQ is one of those rare gems that just does everything right. From the fantastic food, to the spacious dining space, extremely friendly and pleasant staff, and general atmosphere, it is one of our favorite restaurants to visit.
We moved here many years ago from the Deep South, and over the years it was not easy to find a restaurant that can replicate that unique Southern/Southwestern taste. Mission does this brilliantly, and the meats are especially tender/tasty. They offer several different sauces to suit a wide variety of palettes, and the sides/cornbread will knock your socks off 😁 Round it off with a wide variety of beverages and yummy deserts, and your tummy will not be disappointed!
The company is also involved in several charities and humanitarian support networks. We cannot recommend Mission BBQ enough..

This place was above and beyond in service and food with a fun atmosphere!

Pictures here were taken outside of mission bbq. This was a 9/11 memorial ride meet up stop. From there the group went to PA then to DC and up to NYC.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Mission Barbecue in Parma, Ohio, and it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked in, the inviting atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel right at home. The food was simply outstanding, with a wide variety of delicious options to choose from. As a Subaru enthusiast, I couldn't help but notice the strong presence of fellow Subaru fans enjoying their meals. It's safe to say that every Subaru person must try Mission Barbecue! Their dedication to quality and flavor truly embodies the spirit of "God bless America." I highly recommend Mission Barbecue for an enjoyable dining experience that combines fantastic food, warm hospitality, and a patriotic ambiance.

After spending the whole morning out on lake Erie getting smacked around by the waves and wind, decided it was time for some late lunch/early dinner. My father was craving BBQ and I tried to find a restaurant that could accommodate the SUV+jetski trailer. Found out he had never had mission BBQ, so we trek'ed from the Cleveland marina all the way to parmatown so he could give it a try.

Ultimately, he was quite impressed with the establishment, food choices, and the quality of the food. My dad had questions and the employee at the register answered them all with quite a lot of patience given my dad can be hard of hearing and asked the question a couple of times.

We both ordered the three meat samplers so we could try out a few different options at one time. He ordered the spare ribs, pulled pork, and brisket with a side of fries. I ordered the pulled chicken, classic sausage, and brisket. I also got potato salad and Mac and cheese as my sides.

He sampled each of the provided BBQ sauces at the table and decided on the Texas twang. I ended up mostly using the smoky mountains sauce myself.

Food was prepped quickly and the employees ensured we knew where the silverware were before we left (we dined in)

What I assumed was the manager on duty stopped by our table a couple of times to check on us (and surrounding tables) and ended up bussing my tray once I was finished.

I had been there a few times in the past and had a great experience each time. It was not overtly busy as we arrived at a slightly odd, 2'ish pm "lunch" time.

Would recommend if you are in the area and looking for actually decent BBQ in a fast casual setting.

Working in Parma for business. I’m from Texas so I had to try out a local BBQ joint. I’ve not always had good luck with BBQ outside of Texas but Mission BBQ was great!

Decor is patriotic and very appropriate. We had dinner at 6PM on a Tuesday and there was no wait.

I ordered brisket (lean) and the jalapeño sausage. The brisket was very flavorful. I would call it maybe halfway between a lean and moist cut but was exactly what I was looking for. The sausage was actually a little spicy and was very tasty too. The order came with fries and a piece of cornbread. Each table had 6 different sauces which were tasty.

The employees were very helpful and friendly.

I would return in a heartbeat.

If you’re familiar with Houston BBQ chains I would put them ahead of Spring Creek and maybe equal to Pappas and Rudy’s (equal but different….)

I’ll be stopping in next time I’m in Parma.

Thanks for a great visit!
