Without making any changes, just use File -> Reopen Using Encoding, and select the appropriate encoding. You can use Markup -> Character Set to add or adjust the 'meta charset=' encoding specification for HTML files (or a suitable encoding declaration for XML files). You can also adjust the default encoding that BBEdit uses if a file doesn't provide any encoding info via the "If file's encoding can't be guessed, use:" popup in the Text Encodings prefs panel.
