Down South Barbecue, Ponte Vedra Beach, FL

I found this little gem hidden on one end of one of the many shopping strips that line A1A in Ponte Vedra. It's a tiny place, but they serve some good food and more reasonably priced than you might expect for the area. It looks fairly new, the inside is upscale for a bbq joint, but not stuffy. We took a seat and were immediately helped by one of the two waitresses.

I went for the pork sandwich, which is served piled high on garlic bread. The meat was moist and flavorful, and would have been great by itself, but they also provide a wide variety of sauces to choose from at every table. Memphis and Georgia were my favorites. My sandwich was accompanied by a side of delicious cole slaw.

 With a sweet iced tea, this lunch came to about $10. It's a little more than you'd pay at your average lunch spot, but  still a good deal for the quality of food and excellent service.
