Dickey’s Barbecue Pit in Pueblo, CO, is entering a new era under the leadership of franchisee Neri Christian. To celebrate the location’s transformation and show appreciation for the local community, the restaurant is hosting a special guest appreciation event on Friday, February 6.
A New Chapter for Pueblo BBQ
The festivities will kick off at 10:50 AM with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony held in partnership with the local Chamber of Commerce. This ceremony marks a renewed commitment to the Pueblo neighborhood and serves as an invitation for residents to meet Christian and his family.
“I am thrilled to take ownership of this location and continue the tradition of serving pit-smoked BBQ to the wonderful people of Pueblo,” said Neri Christian. “This Guest Appreciation Event is our way of introducing ourselves to the neighborhood, thanking our loyal guests, and inviting everyone to come see what’s new.”
