Pierce's Pit is in Lightfoot, Virginia, near the Williamburg Pottery
outlet place.  You can see it from I-64 due to the orange neon.

Their 2nd location is in Waterside, in Norfolk.  Waterside doesn't have
the full menu, because there are exclusive food franchises granted to
Waterside vendors (hush puppies, french fries, BBQ, etc.).

Pierce's has Tennessee-style BBQ.  It's not like NC-style (vinegar) or
SC-style (mustard).
