TX – August 2016 / Newsmaker Alert / Dickey’s
Barbecue Pit now has a new option for families on the go. As of August
1, Dickey’s launches the new Chicknic Pack, which includes a whole smoked
chicken, two savory sides, four buttery rolls and barbecue sauce. Half
chickens are also available. All whole and half chickens are raised without
antibiotics or added hormones*,
and are humanely raised, vegetarian fed and cage-free.
Smoked
whole and half chickens are a new offering for the barbecue brand, and
will be sold as part of the Chicknic Pack or as an add-on to any order.
The new Chicknic Pack fills out an already robust list of offerings of
barbecue Family Packs which feed anywhere from four to eight people. Like
all of Dickey’s meats, the whole chicken will be slow-smoked on-site at
each store using Dickey’s signature rub blend and hickory wood. The Chicknic
Pack is available system-wide for $19.95, single whole smoked chickens
will be sold for only $9.95 and half chickens are also available for $5.95.
“At
Dickey’s, we want our guests to have wholesome, delicious options to feed
their families,” says Roland Dickey Jr., CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Pit.
“We have received a great deal of feedback from our guests that they want
a whole chicken option, and we are proud to begin offering this quality
product which is raised without antibiotics and has no added hormones.
At Dickey’s we hope to set the standard for quality and transparency, and
this is one major step in our responsibility and sustainability efforts.”
