Dickey's Barbecue Pit

I just received my dinner and ordered the brisket, baked beans, corn bread and pecan pie. The brisket had hardly any smoke or flavor and tasted like and had the texture of a plain pot roast. The beans remind me of a low end bean with bacon out of the can and how do you ruin a pecan pie? I love pecan pie and threw this one away after one bite. This was my first time eating here and last. Gotta improve the quality and authenticity. Bad end to an already long day. Time to go out and find something to eat...

BBQ is really tough to do as a quick service restaurant. I want perfectly done meat, but I also want it done now. Dickey's does a pretty good job meeting both convenience and taste! I had gone to a Dickies several years ago in a different city, this one had a pretty similar contemporary western feel! The staff was friendly and the service was quick since we beat the lunch rush. I ordered the Westerner sandwich ($8.75), which comes with two meats. I opted for brisket and the Honey smoked ham. Both turned out to be pretty good choices...... next time I'd probably try something different than the brisket though. For an additional $3.50 you can add two sides. I did this and ordered waffle iron fries and mac and cheese. Both were good but I feel like the portions were a bit slim for the price and probably wasn't worth it. A drink will also run you a couple more bucks depending on what size you get. As you can see, this can start getting pricey for lunch. There is a daily deal that changes every day which is $8.99 and includes a drink. After you order your food you can get three different types of BBQ sauce, sweet, regular, and spicy. I'm a big fan of the spicy BBQ sauce. It's not overly spicy but it does have a little kick. The real surprise the star of the show was the free self serve ice cream at the end of dinner! It's nothing too fancy, but it was a great ending to the meal!
