Mission BBQ Columbia is part of a beloved American barbecue story that began in 2011 when two friends, Bill Kraus and Steve Newton, opened the first Mission BBQ in Glen Burnie, Maryland. Their vision was simple—serve authentic, handcrafted barbecue while honoring those who serve our country. As time goes by, Mission BBQ has expanded across the U.S., becoming known for its smoky flavors, patriotic spirit, and community-driven values.
The Mission BBQ Columbia menu reflects that same spirit, offering mouthwatering favorites like brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and smoked turkey—each slow-cooked to perfection. As the restaurant grew, fans began whispering about a secret menu, filled with off-the-menu items and custom combinations only the regulars know.
Yet, despite the exciting hidden gems, the restaurant’s original signature smoked brisket remains the timeless favorite—still bringing that same authentic flavor that started it all.
