About Their Food
Dickey’s BBQ Pit has a number of smoked meats and offer Texas Style Barbecue. This includes Beef Brisket, Ham, Pulled Pork, Sausage, Ribs, and more. They offer both sandwiches and plates, with a wide variety of homestyle sides. Their sides include Barbecue Beans, Jalapeno Beans, Fried Okra, Green Beans and Bacon, Coleslaw, Potato Salad, french fries, and more.
In addition to offering a few different types of sandwiches and various sized barbecue plates, which allow you to mix and match both sides and meats, they also offer a few picnic and family pack meals, which can serve up to 25 people. Catering and box lunches are also available, which includes delivery.
One neat thing about Dickey’s BBQ is that they include free soft-serve ice cream with every meal.
Dining Experience and Cost
Food is served from behind a counter cafeteria style, similar to how Subway works. You can pick your meat, then move on to sides and finally desert.
Take-out or dine-in is available, with a number of tables and a large counter top to eat at. Drinks and food is generally self serve, but some of their fried sides are prepared when you order them, so they may bring them out, rather than have you wait to eat.
Cost wise, Dickey’s Barbecue Pit is typically more expensive than fast food, when you add sides and drinks, and certainly more expensive than Smithfield Barbecue. However, there is a lot more selection and the food is of higher quality. Their Meat Plates, which allow you to pick a meat and include two sides, start at $8 for a 1/4 pound of meat and two sides. Their two meat plate is $11. They Sandwiches range from $4 to $7 and you can make it a plate, which includes two sides, for an extra $3.
In addition to free soft serve ice cream with each meal, children 12 and under eat for free on Sunday’s.

Reviews:
I had never eaten at Dickey’s before, even though they have a few other stores in the triangle. However, I went there a few weeks ago and thought the food was really good. I went the safe route and got a pulled pork sandwich, but the guy behind the counter insisted I try some of the other meats and I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely going to try one of the briskets next time!
