Richmond Gives Away Free Dickey's Barbecue for One Year

RICHMOND, Va., Sept. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Dickey's Barbecue will be celebrating its first grand opening in Richmond on September 9 with a drawing to win free barbecue for a year and $1 pulled pork sandwiches throughout lunch.

"It's exciting to watch the doors open and bring great barbecue to Richmond," said Terry Henshaw, who will own and operate the franchise location with his wife, Lisa. "The grand opening will be a great way to reach out to the community that has been so supportive through this process."

The grand opening will be held at 7037 Forest Hill Avenue from 11-1 p.m. with $1 pulled pork sandwiches and three giveaways for free barbecue for a year.

"Dickey's Barbecue is new to Richmond, but the people love the quality, variety and free ice cream!" said Lisa.

This is the third location in Virginia and the first in Richmond.

Texas-based Dickey's Barbecue Pit opened in 1941, began franchising in 1994 and is scheduled to have 200 locations by the end of this year.

The original Dallas location is still open for business and Dickey's Barbecue Pit is still owned and operated by the Dickey Family.

There are 171 locations in 39 states.

Even today, Dickey's still slow smokes all of their signature meats overnight in every restaurant.
