In-store only: Claim free sandwiches for responders at Dickey’s Barbecue Pit locations. A warm meal for those serving in the cold.

Free sandwiches for responders

As severe winter weather continues to sweep across the country, Dickey’s Barbecue Pit is making sure those braving the elements to keep us safe are well-fed. In a heartwarming partnership with The Dickey Foundation, the barbecue giant has announced it will provide free pulled pork sandwiches to first responders actively working during the current storm conditions.

Free Sandwiches for Responders

Starting today, Sunday, January 25, through Monday, January 26, active-duty police officers, firefighters, and emergency aid workers in uniform can stop by participating Dickey’s locations for a hot, pit-smoked meal. The initiative aims to provide a small token of gratitude for the long hours and dangerous conditions these professionals face during extreme weather events.

The leadership at Dickey’s emphasized that this mission is a core part of their company culture.

“Proudly supporting those who protect and serve is at the heart of who we are,” said Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “Our goal is to continuously give first responders and their families the support they need to ensure their safety and success in the communities they serve—especially during moments when they’re called on the most.”

The offer is valid for in-store redemption only at participating locations nationwide. Given the unpredictable nature of the current weather patterns, the company has stated they will monitor conditions closely and may extend the promotion if the severe weather persists.

“Our goal is to continuously give first responders the support they need to stay safe and strong in the communities they serve, especially during times when they are needed most,” said Roland Dickey, Jr., CEO of Dickey’s Capital Group.
