Gift of the Maggi

Bluesbbq%20002.jpg

One of my eagle-eyed readers has reported that tomorrow is Customer Appreciation Day at Blues BBQ in downtown Roanoke.
I couldn’t get owner Patrick Maggi on the phone to verify, but I did speak with someone else at the restaurant who confirmed the special event.
Tomorrow only, you can get your choice of a pulled chicken or pulled pork BBQ sandwich, fries and a drink for $6. If you want to substitute one of their other tasty sides, it’s a buck extra. Having had their fries before, I’d suggest sticking with the taters.
I’ve also tried their pulled pork BBQ, Carolina style, and thought it was tops.
There’s no way to know when Maggi will decide to do this again, so if you haven’t tried Blues BBQ yet, now’s your chance to get a great deal!
