“We are thrilled to see Richard Aronson open a second location in Bakersfield,” said Roland Dickey, Jr., CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue. “It’s exciting to see Richard’s growth in the community and with our brand.”
“Our barbecue is unlike any other in town. I love the fact that we are a fast casual concept where guests get their fresh plate of barbecue within minutes of ordering but everything is slow-smoked for intensified flavor without the use of microwaves or grills,” said owner, Richard Aronson. “Dickey’s Barbecue Pit has been extremely successful here and I’ve been lucky to have the support of the brand.”
Aronson resides in Bakersfield where he owns a second Dickey’s Barbecue Pit location. The newest location is located at 6603 Panama Lane and can be reached by calling 661.735.7774.
