We stopped by the new Dickey’s Barbecue Pit in Riverside Plaza for its grand opening today. The line was out the door.
It is not difficult to know why it was (and probably still is) so crowded… the food is great.
I have tried all of the smoked meats at Dickey’s – Beef Brisket, Pulled Pork, Honey Ham, Spicy Cheddar Sauasage (with jalapeno), Polish Sausage, Pork Ribs, Turkey Breast and Chicken – but my favorites are the ribs, spicy sausage and turkey. All of the selections are great, and I really like that they slice the meat right in front of you.
This location is a bit smaller than the one in Eastvale, but the food is just as good.

I have become a huge fan of Dickey’s Barbecue Pit in Eastvale. In fact, Dickey’s has overtaken Famous Dave’s as my favorite place for barbecue.
Later this month (hopefully), I will have two Dickey’s locations to choose from… Eastvale and Riverside Plaza. I have heard that the tentative opening date for the new Riverside Plaza location is 10/30/14.
The food at Dickey’s is consistently amazing, and I am looking forward to the grand opening. Here is some of what you can expect:

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit in Eastvale opened its doors to the public for the first time today. Since I have been impatiently waiting for this place to open, my wife and I gave it a try today. We weren’t alone. The line was out the door.
After only one visit, I am hooked. I can’t even begin to guess how many times I will eat at Dickey’s Barbecue Pit, but I bet it will be a big number.
The meats are awesome, and they are sliced to order. After waiting in line, I placed my order and then watched as my three meats (Beef Brisket, Virginia Style Ham and Spicy Cheddar Sausage) were sliced right in front of me.
I coaxed my wife into ordering her own 3 Meat Plate so that I could steal some (or a lot). She chose the Beef Brisket, Southern Pulled Pork and Marinated Chicken Breast.
So far, the Spicy Cheddar Sausage, Sliced Beef Brisket and Marinated Chicken Breast are my favorites. My wife really enjoyed the Southern Pulled Pork, and we both prefer the Hot N’ Spicy barbecue sauce. The ribs look good too.
The Barbecue Meat Plates come with a roll and two sides. Both of us chose the Jalapeno Beans (AWESOME!) and the Caesar Salad. I don’t eat bread anymore, but my wife said that the roll was very good.
From the three different barbecue sauces that are kept hot to the small cubes of ice that are perfect for munching, I love this place. I think that I will be back many times.
