“Dickey’s
Barbecue Pit is proud to expand into this new area,” says Roland Dickey
Jr., CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Pit. “The South is known for its appreciation
of great barbecue, and we look forward to bringing our Texas-style flavors
to the Mississippi Delta for the first time.”
Owner/Operator
Dominick Trinca was born and raised in New York, but moved to Mississippi
in 1994 after getting married and practiced medicine for 20 years there.
Having always wanted to open a restaurant, Trinca decided to take the leap
into franchising with Dickey’s Barbecue Pit after researching the brand
thoroughly. He tasted the food and knew he wanted to serve Texas-style
barbecue to his community. “I knew my community needed a new Fast Casual
option,” Trinca says. “This area loves barbecue and I believe the brand
is a great fit for my family because of its support system and excellent
quality.” Trinca hopes to leave his restaurants as a legacy for his three
sons.
