Dickey’s Barbecue Pit

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit brings authentic pit-smoked barbecue to Longview’s West Loop 281, offering East Texas diners a taste of traditional slow-cooked meats in a welcoming, no-frills setting. This established barbecue chain location maintains the brand’s commitment to genuine pit smoking techniques, serving up tender meats that have been slowly cooked over hickory wood for hours until they reach perfect tenderness.

The menu centers around classic barbecue staples, featuring slow-smoked brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and polish sausage that arrive at the table with that distinctive smoky flavor. Diners can choose from hearty plates served with traditional sides like mac and cheese, coleslaw, and baked beans, or opt for sandwiches piled high with their choice of meat. The restaurant’s signature burnt ends and tender turkey breast round out the protein options, while their tangy barbecue sauce adds the perfect finishing touch.
