MISSION BBQ Partners with ezCater to Expand Workplace Catering Nationwide

Nov 5

BOSTON, November 5, 2025 (WHERE AND WHAT TO EAT) – Food technology company ezCater has announced that restaurant chain MISSION BBQ has joined its platform to expand its catering services across the country. All 152 MISSION BBQ locations are now available through ezCater, marking the restaurant’s first partnership with a third-party marketplace.

The collaboration is designed to help MISSION BBQ reach corporate and institutional customers, including offices, hospitals, universities, and distribution centers. The arrangement allows the restaurant to grow its catering business without developing an internal corporate sales team.

“By partnering with ezCater, we are unlocking a significant new revenue stream, while deepening our mission to serve great food and honor those who serve. It is the most efficient way to expand our catering program and bring our barbecue to workplaces for team lunches, meetings, events, and more,” said Bill Kraus, Founder of MISSION BBQ.

MISSION BBQ, known for its focus on honoring U.S. military service members and first responders, launched on ezCater shortly before Veterans Day. The partnership provides workplaces an opportunity to support a mission-driven restaurant while organizing meals for their teams.

According to ezCater, the average MISSION BBQ catering order on the platform exceeds $430, and the restaurant expects ezCater to represent up to 3% of its total business.

“The role of food in the workplace has fundamentally changed from a simple perk to a critical way to build a better on-site experience. We're thrilled to bring MISSION BBQ to workplaces nationwide because they reliably deliver the kind of memorable meals that help our customers build a stronger, more connected culture,” said Cindy Klein Roche, Chief Growth Officer at ezCater.

Workplaces can place catering orders from MISSION BBQ through www.ezcater.com or the ezCater mobile app.
