Ozark or Rockwood in the Richmond, VA area

I have been reading about how wonderful Ozark Oak and Rockwood lump is and now I want to try it.  I can only get Royal Oak or Cowboy around my area.  I will be driving down to Richmond VA in a few weeks.  Is there a store that would carry these brands?  A little deli by my house now carries Humphries???  I just noticed it and it was $17 per bag.  Has anyone tried that kind?   

Also, I'm going to be in the Manassas area later this week.  I'm going to stop in Dizzy Pig.  I love that place!!  I don't know that they carry lump other than Big Green Egg though. 

Thanks!!

    Dizzy Pig has Rockwood in stock.

    Next closest is three Ace Hardware stores south of Baltimore.

    Just did a quick search on Rockwood's website (LINK) and it doesn't look like there's any "official" dealers within 50 miles.  Not sure on the Ozark Oak side of things.

    I would try to stop at the Dizzy Pig!  Their rubs are all great!   Every time I try a new one my wife says that is her new favorite.  Raging River for Salmon,  Tsunami Spin for Chicken and Dizzy Dust for Ribs.  All winners so far.  Soon to try Cowlick and Pineapple head.  Then pick up some Rockwood and you had good day!

    No Rockwood here in Richmond. Dizzy pig is your best option.
    Richmond and Mathews County, VA. Large BGE, Weber gas, little Weber charcoal. Vintage ManGrates. Little reddish portable kamado that shall remain nameless here.  Very Extremely Stable Genius.
