Former Marine Sets Out To Open Dickey’s Barbecue Pit In Arizona

PR Newswire:

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit, the largest quick-serve barbecue chain in the country, continues to grow as Thomas Emmons, an honorably discharged member of the Marine Corps, signs on to open a Dickey’s Barbecue Pit in Mesa, Arizona.

This is the first Dickey’s franchise opportunity, located at 1914 S. Power Rd., for Emmons and the Mesa community.

“I chose Dickey’s because not only do they have the best Texas-style barbecue, but there’s also a great concept of pit-smoked barbecue at a reasonable price and in a fast casual environment. It felt like the perfect fit. As an added benefit, my Mom has relocated to Arizona to assist me in expanding the Dickey’s name in Phoenix,” Emmons said.

Emmons lived in Ft. Worth, Texas for nearly a decade, where he discovered Texas-style barbecue by way of Dickey’s hickory smoked meats and home-style sides.
