The new restaurant is located at 13890 Shoppers Best Way Woodbridge near Potomac Mills mall.

Mission BBQ just sent us this press release: 

MISSION BBQ is opening its 54th location in Woodbridge, VA on Monday, October 2, 2017. This will be the 11th location in Virginia for the restaurant known for its traditional American BBQ with a hefty side of patriotism.
