Due South BBQ and Rainstorms

Our first stop on the BBQ Journey across the U.S. was at the Due South
BBQ in Christiansburg, VA. We decided to stop there after missing the
exit for Roanoke. For some reason I thought Roanoke was on the
highway, but it wasn't. Next thing I know we are about 10 miles south
of the exit we should have taken. Considering our desire to stay on
schedule, we decided to find the next place to pull over and get some
lunch. Christiansburg it was and the Due South BBQ was about a mile
west of the highway.

We walked in and saw a menu with maters and taters, as well as the
expected pork, beef, and chicken. After getting some clarification on
the maters and taters, I ordered a pork sandwich and Katie ordered the
beef brisket sandwich. Great stuff, but I think we ate too much. Katie
enjoyed the pig painted on the mirror in the bathroom and the lady
working the counter was quite nice.

As we left another freak rainstorm began and we pulled off the highway
to wait it out. This was the second time that day we ended up on the
side of the road. We couldn't see anything and the windshield wipers
were useless.
