NewsOK: Dickey's Barbecue opens store

CATOOSA — Dickey's Barbecue Pit has opened a new location at Catoosa Hills Shopping Center.

"We are proud of Owner/Operators Cliff and Charlene Strong as they open their newest location and Dickey's fourth store in Oklahoma," Roland Dickey, Jr., CEO of Dickey's Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. said in a statement. "The new location highlights Dickey's expansion in growing markets like Tulsa and we look forward to the opportunity to introduce authentic slow-smoked barbecue to the surrounding community."

With recent development including a Walmart and the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino nearby, the Strongs were enticed by the growing area outside of Tulsa in Catoosa and saw an opportunity to bring another dining option to the area, Dickey said. 

Dickey's Catoosa location is at 19361 Robson Road. 

Dickey's Barbecue was founded in 1941 by Travis Dickey with the goal of authentic slow-smoked barbecue. The fast-casual concept has expanded to 550 locations in 43 states.
