QSR: Dickey’s Barbecue Pit Open at KC's Arrowhead Stadium

QSR covered Dickey's new concession stand in Arrowhead Stadium. 

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit Owner/Operator Ryan Wenrich ventured out from the typical Dickey’s Barbecue Pit location and has set up shop at Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium.

Wenrich, a Kansas City football fan for as long as he can remember, was thrilled when Arrowhead Stadium approached him about sharing Dickey’s slow-smoked, Texas-style barbecue with patrons of their venue. His first concession location opened during preseason and a second location will be opening soon.“We are excited to have this opportunity at Arrowhead Stadium,” says Wenrich. “Nothing goes better with football than delicious barbecue and we are proud to offer this to the fans at Arrowhead stadium this season and hopefully many seasons in the future.”

The concession stand will offer Dickey’s delicious, slow-smoked barbecue sandwiches, fall off the bone ribs, Frito Pie and crispy waffle fries. Though Wenrich is the owner of these locations, they will be run by Pit Boss’ Kip McVey and Michael Meade.

“At Dickey’s Barbecue Pit, we are proud to have franchisees like Ryan Wenrich that take Dickey’s Barbecue Pit to a new level by being innovative in location selection and embracing serving our traditional barbecue in a new way,” says Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “It is ideas such as these, that will continue Dickey’s growth now and in the future.”
