Mission BBQ
Mission BBQ is a barbecue restaurant in Ellicott City that serves smoked meats including ribs and pulled pork sandwiches alongside hearty sides. The interior has a casual and welcoming feel where families and friends gather for straightforward, filling meals.
The restaurant opened in 2011 when founders traveled the country collecting traditional barbecue recipes to bring home and share with their community. This journey led to a mission of honoring those who serve others through food and charitable giving.
The restaurant displays photos and stories of service members on its walls, creating a space where visitors naturally think about those who dedicate their lives to helping others. This decoration reflects the restaurant's core belief that honoring community heroes should be part of everyday life.
The restaurant is located on Plum Tree Drive and easy to find, with ample space for visitors to settle in comfortably. The atmosphere is casual and informal, so relaxed dress and manner fit right in.
Since opening, the restaurant has donated over 25 million dollars to organizations supporting veterans, police, firefighters, and first responders. This amount reflects how deeply the place is built on helping those who serve.
