Brisket was dry .. very dry and unseasoned. Was it even smoked ? Also they forgot my sauce ? .. would not come back nor would I recommend. Honestly it was disgusting. Wish I had something better to say cause I’ve actually worked for a different location and I use to love this place. Haven’t had it in forever and was really looking forward to smoked brisket. It was disappointing to say the least.

I literally threw our meal in the trash. The brisket sandwich was cold, dry and tough. I asked for potato casserole and they gave me cold mashed potatoes with potato chunks. They didn’t have ketchup and it took him awhile just to give me a side of bbq sauce.

Me and my wife ordered off door dash figured we would give the brand a second chance both times dickeys bbq has been a major let down the turkey and pulled pork was so dry it was more aless a raw Hyde for a dog. The brisket was iffy parts were edible other parts were not, now the jalapeno cheeder sausage was good a bit more heat then I liked but over was good there also was no smoke flavor whatsoever. When I smoke turkey pork or even brisket for the matter I go at low and slow for 12hrs this tasted like it was put in a very very hot smoker to smoke in the shortest amount of time and all the juices to keep it moist just got evaporated which is sad whoever is running that smoker really needs to be taught how to run it differently and to add more wood to it cause out of everything the only thing I would order again is the Mac and cheese. The other thing I noticed by the texture is there probably wrapping it to tight in aluminum foil to smoke it which is blocking a huge punch of the smoke flavor you expect from a bbq place

Dined in twice in May 2024 and the food was great.
Unfortunately, this place has lost its quality. The brisket sandwich we ordered was 80% fat. They didn’t properly prepare my pulled pork sandwich- the pork was chopped up into big chunks and was very dry. We requested the spicy bbq sauce and instead they gave us 4 cups of hot sauce.
Really disappointed because this place used to be excellent.

I placed an order through the app. My husband went to pick it up. They didn’t even realize there was an order. Then they threw some meat and sides into containers. The brisket was inedible. Cold, very tough, fatty, and absolutely no seasoning on the few bites I was able to eat. I grew with Dickeys down in Texas. This does the company shame. We didn’t get the corn muffins I ordered or the pickles or the original sauce, not that I would’ve been able to eat any of it as the brisket again was completely inedible. I will not be going back.

This place is simply set up weird. You do not order where the cash register is, but instead, order to the right at a position that does not appear a logical spot to place orders. I am guessing the person who came out from the back since he was not sure about the "sides" they offer. They were out of napkins and the individual bbq sauce containers. Just weird, although the individual was friendly. Brisket and Mac n' cheese was good. The atmosphere is of a gas station dining area.

I ordered a samper platter and 1/2 chicken 1/2 rib dinner. All of the food was dry and overcooked. It took forever to get it once we arrived and the Staff could have been friendlier.

I’ve been here many times and they’re always out of everything, the computers don’t work and they want you to pay cash, the workers seem extremely unorganized even when not busy. I figured I’d give it a few visits before I wrote a review but this happens most times I stop. I’ve been turned away multiple times because their system is down. Sucks because the food is great. Hopefully management can fix this….

I was thirsty. Didn’t care to order any food. Last experience here wasn’t great. So, ok, entire board advertises getting a big yellow cup. Which I cherish. I have a collection of them. Instead, I got a Churches chicken styrofoam cup. Talk about false advertising.
My wife ordered a 2 plate meal. They gave us the food. We had to go ask why they didn’t have the bread. They were out of bread. How the hell do you run out of bread. Meat was entirely dried out. Which for BBQ is not a good thing.
To be fair, this place is in a gas station. I’m not sure why I had any expectations for this, but in my past life Dickie’s was a higher quality establishment.

Dirty, 2 pm. Very few customers. Brisket is dry,
Serving portions are much smaller than our last 2 visits.
We thought we liked this place.
Sad to say, after this visit, we won't be back.
The whole building was dirty. Looked 15 years old. No towels in the bathroom.
The help was mostly behind the counters jabbering away in.an annoying manner.
I overheard one exclaim something like, "They don't like to work.with us."
My first thought was, I'll bet that's true.
Maybe more like, They don't like to work while we're here taking up space.
Our first visit to this establishment was very enjoyable and the food was good. Our 2nd visit must have been OK at the least.
What the hell happened to o this place?

Im super pickey with bbq and sides. So here it goes....potato salad, mac n cheese and loaded potato casserole were AMAZING. We ordered every meat:
brisket tastes like roast more than brisket but was very flavorful.
Both turkey and chicken were drier than id like but the flavors were truly wonderful and none of the meats were greasy.
The pork was outstanding and sgsin not greasy and messy..
Fries were nothing to boast about. We did order slaw and brisket chili which were out but i took a risk on the others and have no regrets. Calling hot dog bun shaped bread, texas toast is very misleading. Now was the size of the 3 meat platter really worth almost $20 each? yes and no. As long as you understand that some items are mislabeled and not exactly what they say, and you get the right sides sure $20 might be acceptable if the size is there. Which in my opinion the size of the platter was small. Overall we for sure will be back for sides and that pork. The rest not sure on.
