Overview of Brand: Dickey’s Barbecue Pit prides itself on authenticity, innovation and barbecue sauce, one story at a time.

Brand Differentiator: Every Dickey’s franchisee receives comprehensive four-week training at Barbecue University, giving them the tools and confidence to get started with success. In addition, their real estate and construction departments are committed to optimizing each location for design and engineering  perfection, and when it’s time to open, their marketing team will walk you through the process.
