Barbecue lovers need to mark their calendars because October 18 marks the 70th Anniversary of Dickey’s Barbecue and each store will offer $1 pulled pork sandwiches and drinks in celebration of the milestone.
“This is a huge year for us, we are turning 70 and expanding at an unbelievable rate of 46 percent growth rate,” said Roland Dickey, Jr., President of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “We are grateful to each and every community that supports our restaurant and want to give back in a big way.”
Alongside the $1 sandwiches and drinks until 3 p.m., the final round of the national barbecue eating competition will be held at the original Dickey’s Barbecue Pit in Dallas, TX at 5 p.m.
“The national barbecue eating competition will be great to watch, along with the tower of barbecue sandwiches,” said Dickey. “I’m looking forward to this celebration after such a remarkable year; the hard work is paying off.”
