Visiting the QC, stopped by Mission BBQ to pick up dinner for family (including celiac daughter). Informed server we needed gluten free and were immediately provided with GF menu. Lots of options! Server instructed kitchen everything needed to be separate (gluten from Gf). Other servers were sure to provide us with only the GF sauces. No issues from my daughter and delicious food. Definitely recommend and will be back when we visit the QC.

Pleasant, friendly and good food. All meat and seasonings are GF. The fries are GF and the only item fried in the fryer. There is only one BBQ sauce that is not GF: texas twang. The bread/ buns, cornbread, macaroni salad, and vanilla wafers topping for the banana pudding) are not gluten free. I'm celiac, I ordered the 5 bone baby back rib combo with fries. The two non celiac I was with one ordered the same thing I did but hers had corn bread included. The other order was spare rib combo his also had cornbread. They both enjoyed the cornbread. All of us enjoyed the dinners. The meat was very tender and flavorful on its own. We tried several BBQ sauces and the special vinegar seasoning for fries. We took some leftovers home. The staff was super friendly. Took the time to explain their process and what items I could safely eat. They also marked the ticket for my GF meal. After 24 hours no adverse reactions!

Great food. Dedicated gf menu. Staff were knowledgeable in gf handling and recommendations for which sauces are gf. Many choices. Had pulled pork and brisket. Highly recommend the lean brisket.

This is a great chain for Celiacs - they train their employees on gluten free AND celiac, they vocalize GF orders to the kitchen and they change their gloves, cutting boards, etc. All the sauces are reportedly GF but I’ve heard it’s best to be careful with the sauces that contain Worcestershire sauce bc they may swap out brands that aren’t GF.

Other allergies can be found if you Google search their allergen menu!

What a find! Mission BBQ has incredibly delicious food and really understands gf safety! It is counter service, and the server came around the counter to explain that their frier is gf so the French fries are safe, all the meats too. Of the sides only the cornbread, pasta and potato salad contain gluten. There were ample other side choices available. She called back to the prep area that there was a gf order also. I had brisket and fries. The brisket was some of the best I ever had, and the hand cut fries were amazing. All their BBQ sauces are gf too! The restaurant was very clean, and they are dedicated to veterans and active duty military so the decor was centered around that. Definitely somewhere i will retun to when i am in the area.

My husband and I ordered food here. I ordered letting them know I had an allergy and when he yelled back to let them know, the girl said “which one is has the gluten allergy? The sandwich?” I thought that was an odd question considering the sandwich is made on bread and bread contains gluten. That comment made me a little uneasy seeing maybe not everyone back there understand what a gluten allergy is. Food was good though and I didn’t feel sick after.

Great service, safe food. True American BBQ restaurant. They let the Kitchen know by mouth that it has to be Glutenfree. Even when the food is allready Glutenfree. To take care of safely preparing the food. Feels very good.
