DALLAS - Dickey’s Barbecue Pit is continuing to celebrate 80 years of serving Legit. Texas. Barbecue.™ with the launch of its limited-edition Black and White Tribute Cup featuring historic throwback images!

From March 1-April 30, guests can visit any Dickey’s location and collect the limited-edition cup.

“Dickey’s is a family-owned American success story, which is part of what makes this cup so special,” said Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “These cups show family quotes and highlights of events that helped make Dickey’s what it is today. We couldn’t be more excited to launch these nostalgic cups as we continue to raise funds for those who serve and protect our communities.”
