About the Business
MISSION BBQ is a patriotic and community-focused restaurant located in Sarasota, Florida. After scouring the country for the best BBQ, the founders were inspired to bring this delicious cuisine back home. Their mission is to serve authentic, mouth-watering all-American food to those who protect and serve our nation, including veterans, first responders, and active duty military personnel.
The institution not only serves delicious food, but also gives back to the community through fundraisers and service projects, donating over $25,000,000 to charities since opening in 2011. The staff at MISSION BBQ are dedicated to taking care of their team and prioritizing the needs of their employees above all else.
One notable story from MISSION BBQ is that of Tom Glenn, a former NSA employee who was on the last helicopter out of Saigon during Operation Frequent Wind in 1975. His dedication to his duty and the safety of others reflects the values of service and sacrifice that MISSION BBQ holds dear.

Reviews
"My husband and I went to have lunch here today and we had an amazing experience. We recently moved down from Texas and have yet to find barbecue that we loved. Not only was the meat, sides, and dessert delicious, in addition to wonderful staff and service. We will definitely return!"
"Mission has the best brisket around. Make sure you get the moist version. Just amazing. The burnt ends have phenomenal flavor. Not quite as moist. But taste great."
"We came in for a quick bite after having a hectic day at the airport. Jamie noticed we were trying all of the sauces and asked if we ever been there before. It was our first time but definitely not our last! She gave us all of the sides to try and then the best banana pudding! She taught us about the concept of mission bbq and really went above and beyond for us! So happy we stopped by!"
"I can’t believe there wasn’t a line out the door at this place. Meat fell off the bone, perfectly tender and crusted. Beans were amazing! Coleslaw, thin shredded, fantastic. Service was amazing. Jamie was a great host, telling us the Mission story and its commitment to veterans and first responders. This is hands down the best barbecue in town!!"
