If you are looking for out of this world ribs and BBQ, look no further than "The Pig". Whether you prefer North Carolina style BBQ (vinegar based) or regular BBQ (tomato based) they have the sauce to suit you. Hands down the best homemade desserts anywhere in Richmond. They offer a mouth watering brunch during the winter months every Sunday afternoon. Having been born and raised in Richmond, VA I can honestly say that "The Pig" is the one and only place to experience truly good BBQ.
- Pros: Quick & friendly service, excellent southern style meals & great affordable prices

Best BBQ in Ashland

The Smokey Pig was a great choice for me and Matt Lauer. Every time he is in town he makes a special trip to dine at The Pig. He has mentioned this casual dining on his show and stopped by a couple of weeks ago while I was there for lunch. So the others can say what they would like I loved every minute of it. My kids had a great time and the food was good home cooked BBQ. Myself as a local of Ashland has not and will never abandon the Pig because as their slogan says "I Dig the Pig".!
- Pros: Kid Friendly and Great Food

After 25 years, the locals have abandon them, the over quality is on a decline and the prices are up.. They still pull in folks from all over the east coast making they yearly trek up and down I-95.
