MIRAMAR, Fla., Florida just got a whole lot better. Dickey's Barbecue Pit opens this Sunday, November 6 in Miramar. If you live anywhere near 11334 Miramar Parkway, then you need to stop by and enjoy any of Dickey's eight signature slow-smoked meats and ten sides.

"We are excited to open," said local franchise owner Hicham Kehdy. Kehdy owns and operates this location with Gilbert Harb.

This will be the fourth Dickey's location in Florida. Dickey's Barbecue Pit opened in 1941 and began franchising in 1994. Since then Dickey's has grown at an exponential rate and is scheduled to have 200 stores open nationwide by the end of this year.
