US-based restaurant chain Dickey’s Barbecue Pit is set to reopen its remodelled restaurant in Tyler, Texas.

Located at 1501 W SW Loop 323, the overhauled restaurant location will open to the public on 20 November 2023 under new ownership.

The Tyler location will be taken over by existing Dickey’s owner and operator, Douglas Edwards and his pit crew.

Edwards said: “My team and I are excited to join the Tyler community. We’re taking the opportunity to make a few updates to the restaurant and then will be open and serving the same amazing barbecue that Dickey’s is known for, so please come see us.

“If you haven’t ordered your Thanksgiving barbecue, we’ve got you covered. More information to follow as we get closer to our grand reopening.”

Tyler Dickey’s location will offer its customers the brand’s pit-smoked barbecue.

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit CEO Laura Rea Dickey said: “We have sincerely enjoyed working alongside John and his entire team in Tyler for the past eleven years and wish him all the best.

“After great success as an owner/operator in Longview, we are thrilled to have Doug and his crew expanding into the Tyler community and are very confident the store will continue to thrive.”

Last month, Dickey’s Barbecue Pit opened its new restaurant in Alberta, Canada.

Located in Leduc, the new restaurant is owned and operated by Faisal Khan Suri.
