DICKEY’S BBQ: GREAT FOOD. GREAT PRICES.

The Place:

Dickey’s BBQ Pit is located at 5800 N 10th Street in McAllen TX. Their slogan? “SLOW SMOKED, SERVED FAST!” Their BBQ? DELICIOUS! On the wall is a huge Black & White picture of President Ronald Reagan with who I imagine is the infamous “Dickey” who’s BBQ recipes we thoroughly enjoyed that day. We were quickly greeted by a nice Lady by the name of Olga Gonzalez: Owner/Operator as soon as we walked in. She was busy making sure all the customers were enjoying their BBQ lunch experience, but sat with us for a bit and gave us the run down on the

business, he food, a new location opening up soon in South McAllen as well as the 2 lb FULL HOUSE we were about to receive.

The Food:

We each gathered our little cups of BBQ sauce (mild and hot) and began sampling the meaty goodness that lay before us. The brisket, chicken, sausage and hot links were juicy and tender. The rib were great. The meat slid off the bone. Now, I’m not a big

Turkey guy. I’ll have some on Thanksgiving and that’s about it. I was gonna pass on it but at my friends urging I decided to give it a try. I am glad I did. It was juicy and amazing and (sorry dad) the best turkey I have ever tasted. Was it Roasted or Fried? I

forgot to ask. Sorry. You can ask them yourselves when you stop by. And you should! Soon!

The Price:

The FULL HOUSE with 2 lbs of Brisket, Ribs, Chicken, Hot Links, Polish Sausage and Turkey will run you a little over $20 or so. It’s not on the menu but you can definitely order it and it’s a great way to sample all of their juicy, tender meats. Now if you aren’t quite that hungry, you can get a great meal with a soda for about $7. I don’t know about you, but my trips to BBQ places usually result in a $13 or more tab so this was refreshing, especially in this economy. As an added bonus, you get FREE ICE CREAM CONES! WHOO! Old Fashioned Vanilla!

The Low Down:

We left with full bellies, big smiles, and ice cream mustaches on our faces. Dicky’s was affordable, clean, friendly, and best of all…TASTY!
