Lee Blackwell has a Servant’s Heart. Taking care of others. Always there. The first to help out, always putting himself last. We’re grateful and proud to have him on Our Team.

Kitchen Manager Jose Marroquin inspires “hope for anyone who comes in contact with him.” Whether it’s customers who count on him for authentic American BBQ or Teammates who work with him and his selfless Servant’s Heart.

Ever since graduating High School, Gaby Benitez has “wanted to do something that was worth doing.” Whether joining us at MISSION BBQ to better serve her Community or enlisting in the Army National Guard to serve Our Country, her Servant’s Heart just keeps getting bigger.

Making Every Day A Better One. “Everybody is in a better mood,” says MISSION BBQ General Manager Duane Donn. “Everybody is just happy to be working with each other and I think we really see the camaraderie come out.” So who’s the one leading the way, making every day better? Silvia Gonzalez.

Teacher. Mentor. Servant. His Teammates look up to Jim Bloomer like a father figure — one who leads “in the most kind and fatherly way, but with that stern manner.” His selfless service not only makes a difference in their lives, but to those he helps as an active Navy Reservist and everyone who walks

”It Comes From The Heart.” Married for 29 years, now working side-by-side at MISSION BBQ, Craig Briggs & Maria Cordova Briggs look after one big family of Police Officers, Firefighters, First Responders, active-duty military & veterans, and their Richmond community. “It’s about caring for other people, looking out for their well-being.”

“Do the best we can” Not even a hurricane when it came to serving others during a devastating storm. And not when there are coworkers who need encouragement, or customers who deserve appreciation. His “BEST” makes us all better.

Diving In To Make A Difference. Our Mission Is To Serve. And we need soldiers like Steve “Scuba” Lippert … Veterans who not only understand the industry but understand what our policy is. He has integrity, our admiration, and a humble Servant’s Heart.

Putting others first, making sure everyone is taken care of, unselfishly giving of herself time after time. Merry Roberts has a Servant’s Heart. We’re grateful and proud to have her on Our Team.

“What Can I Do For You?” That’s how Shannon Sperduto greets everyone at our Philadelphia MISSION BBQ — especially those in need. Whether it’s a fundraiser for First Responders, a thoughtful card and hug, or feeding crowds at community events, Shannon is “constantly offering love and support.”
