Useful Tips
Consumers know that shopping locally is smart, and here are some useful tips about our market:
- For the best selection, come to the Mission Market early; for the best deals, come late in the day.
- Bring your own bag, preferably a sturdy, cloth, reusable bag, which will help keep ripe produce from getting bruised. Another option is to purchase shopping bags from the market made of recycled products.
- Examine all the vegetables or fruit in a basket to make sure you're getting what you want.
- Plan to do a lot of shopping? Bring your own cart to carry everything.
- Ask about bargains. Sellers often have bruised or overripe vegetables and fruit that they will discount and that are perfect for pies, cobblers, sauces, or jams.
- Bring cash, particularly dollar bills, because many vendors have limited change.
- If in doubt, ask if the produce is locally-grown or where it is from.
- If the Market is one of several stops you'll be making in a day, bring a cooler for your purchases, to keep them fresh.

Email: info@smokecitybarbecue.com
We are a husband and wife team with three boys who are home schooled and we love to spend a great deal of time together. My husband has always been extremely passionate about barbecue and the art of slow wood smoked cooking.
He has invested years of research to find just the right recipes, rubs and sauces to make the most mouthwatering barbecue you've ever had. We've had a vision for many years, to work together as a family and we finally decided to live our dream.
We absolutely love to see the happiness people experience when they try our high quality food. With the ability to slow cook all food on sight in front of your guests, we are able to provide a party setting that will be unlike any dinner party you've ever attended.
That is why we started City Smoke Barbecue because we love what we do and it shows! So give us a try and challenge us to exceed your expectations.
