Authentic Virginia Barbecue with a Side of Country Charm

Country charm abounds in this cozy BBQ shack in Nelson. You won’t miss the giant pig floating atop a sign linked to an old red-painted brick building as you drive south on 151. In addition to ribs, pulled pork and chicken, and the traditional accompaniments, there are also turkey croissants and country ham. There is indoor and outdoor seating, and you can make yourself at home amongst the pig-themed country decor. The staff is friendly, and the environment is fully relaxed rural hospitality - kid-friendly and affordable!

Drinks

Sweet tea, lemonade, and Coke-a-Cola products

Menu

If there is such a thing as Virginia barbecue, it comes drenched in sauce and made with love from the kitschy counter of Blue Ridge Pig. (You can order sauce on the side if you like a more North Carolina-style treatment; don’t worry.) Order in bulk ($15/lb) or as a sandwich. The smoked turkey croissant is piled high with meat and veggies - a true standout, even at a BBQ joint! ($10). Complement your meal with traditional side dishes like dilled potato salad, baked beans, mac and cheese, and cole slaw.

Pros

Local business, fun decor

Cons

Small menu, no special dietary considerations

Alternatives

Paulie’s Pig Out, Basic Necessities (for vegetarian options)

FAQ

Can I order ahead?

You can call in an order for pick-up. Blue Ridge Pig also takes bulk catering orders.

Is there a gluten-free option?

If you eat only meat and potato salad, you’ll be mostly in the clear. However, this is not recommended for anyone with a severe gluten allergy.
