Dickey’s Barbecue Is Steering Growth to Denver

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit is getting smokin’ momentum in the Denver area. The world’s largest barbecue chain currently has four Denver area stores and is searching for multiple new spaces.

“Denver is a strong market for our quality barbecue and down home sides,” said Roland Dickey, Jr., president of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “We have big plans for the Denver area.”

Dickey’s Barbecue added over 66 stores last year and is planning to add 100 new locations nationwide in 2012.  The fast casual restaurant chain just signed on another new franchise owner looking for new sites in the Denver area.

“Dickey’s offers fantastic food and a family friendly environment,” said franchise owner Tom O’Neill. “My experience with Dickey’s has been great and I want to continue building the brand.”

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit opened its first location in Dallas in 1941. Dickey’s began franchising in 1994 and has continued to grow across the country. Dickey’s currently has more than 200 locations in 36 states nationwide.

With every new restaurant, the company creates additional jobs for landlords, brokers, construction companies, and of course the city itself. This is great news for the Denver area.

Dickey’s Barbecue offers a quality selection of signature meats, home style sides and tangy barbecue sauce. All meats are slow smoked on-site in each restaurant. For more information, including a full menu, other restaurant locations and franchising opportunities, please visit www.dickeys.com.
