Company Man: The Rise and Fall of Dickey’s - What Happened?

"Why doesn't Dickey's go as hard as it used to?"

[–] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Probably because their bbq is trash

[–] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Dickey's, right?

WAY overpriced crap, seriously shitty. Had it maybe twice.

[–] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

I had it once. That was enough for me. I live in a land of good local bbq so I won't buy chain bbq anymore. It never even comes close. And some, like dickeys are so mediocre they enter the offensive territory. I would rather eat a fast food burger instead.

Never heard of them. Just checked the map and the nearest one is 100 miles from me.

[–] KnightontheSun@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

You’ve not missed anything special. The couple of times I ate there it was basic lunchroom BBQ fare. Not special at all and overpriced as well.

I hope McDonald's fails too.

Last year they were talking about how they are going up market and they don't care about poor. Them going up market was essentially a price hike....

Poor's stopped going, now they are crying lol

Parasites need to learn who their customet base is jfc

I think fast food is going to have a hard time going forward. It just is to expensive relative to people with little money.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It is too expensive for anyone besides upper class...

And it is cost prohibitive for the vast majority imho

yeah those who can afford it can afford better. they are highly reliant on poor people for money and labor.

I've never even heard of that place. Where's it based out of?

Deep fried penises, from the name.

There must be some variance because the ones in Washington were quite decent when I was there and the kids eat free Sundays seems like an insanely consumer friendly deal.

Ribs are their strong suit and the jalapeno cheddar sausage is solid.

Well you can imagine Washington isn't flooded with good BBQ alternatives
