Texas-style barbecue restaurant brand Dickey’s Barbecue Pit has furthered its expansion in Canada with the launch of a new store in Edmonton, Alberta.

The company partnered with Denis Melhem to open the new store, which will be the brand’s third location in Edmonton.

Melhem, who will own and operate the location, said: “Our pit crew is so excited to be serving Dickey’s Legit Texas Barbecue to the community we love.

“We hope our store will become another cornerstone of what has quickly become a great barbecue culture on the prairies.”

Located in Manning Town Centre, the new Dickey’s Barbecue Pit store will be offering its guests weekly barbecue specials.

These will include Mac-Stack Monday with a C$9.99 brisket Mac-Stack, a buy-one-get-one-50%-off sandwich deal on Tuesdays, a buy-one-get-one-free offer on six wings on Wing Wednesday and a C$9.99 brisket poutine on Thursdays.

Dickey’s Capital Group CEO Roland Dickey said: “We are thrilled to be expanding Dickey’s Barbecue Pit within the Edmonton community.

“Denis is a fantastic partner and Pit Master, and we have nothing but great confidence that this crew will succeed in offering the perfect pit-smoked barbecue to their guests.”

In June 2024 Dickey’s Barbecue Pit signed a franchise agreement to open multiple stores in the Calgary area of Alberta, Canada.

The company signed the agreement with local restaurant franchisor Gaurang Modh. The first store will be opened in Taber.

Dickey’s Barbecue also plans to introduce Dickey’s Legit Texas Barbecue at the new locations.
