October 04, 2021 // Franchising.com // DALLAS - Dickey’s Barbecue Pit is celebrating 80 years of serving Legit. Texas. Barbecue.™ by inviting fans to meet one of its iconic leaders – Mr. Dickey!

On Wednesday, Oct. 20, from 5 p.m. to close, the barbecue concept will host Mr. Dickey’s Dollar Dinner Party where it all started – the original Dickey’s restaurant at 4610 N. Central Expressway in Dallas. Mr. Dickey will attend the customer appreciation event and meet guests, sign cookbooks and offer a pre-sale for Dickey’s newest cookbook coming out later this year!

Mr. Dickey’s Dollar Dinner Party will celebrate with $1 Pulled Pork Sandwiches and $1 Lone Star Beer from 5 p.m. to close. The special is only available at the original location in Dallas on Central Expressway and Henderson Ave., for dine-in or pick-up. All locations nationwide are celebrating by offering an $8.80 anniversary combo of a pulled pork sandwich, side and dessert, plus free delivery online.

The excitement doesn’t stop there. The Dickey’s team will be joined by two other Dallas staples – SportsRadio 96.7 and 1310 The Ticket. The Ticket promo team will be onsite giving away apparel, accessories and more! Also, a big screen will be set up in the parking lot to show early commercials, tributes to the 80th and live sporting events.

“We are very excited to get our loyal barbecue fans involved in celebrating our 80th anniversary,” said Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “This event is an opportunity to show our appreciation for our guests and everything they’ve done to keep us serving slow-smoked meats and savory sides over the last eight decades. We hope everyone in the area can make it out to enjoy our $1 specials and good times with The Ticket and Dickey’s team.”

At Mr. Dickey’s Dollar Dinner Party, guests can also purchase tickets for the 80th Anniversary Dickey Foundation Fundraiser Concert on Oct. 28 at The Rustic in Dallas. The celebration will feature food, fun and live music from Josh Ward, and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to The Dickey Foundation, which provides financial opportunities, safety equipment and overall support for first responders.
