I'm wishing I could give just shy of 4 stars and there isn't anything wrong with Dickey's. Why not a better score if there isn't anything wrong? Well, we have to face facts, people are into cooking their own BBQ, like myself, so we have a bit higher standards. Also the competition is pretty intense.
Some places do at least one dish exceptionally well, but either I didn't order that dish or there wasn't one. From my short recollection, I believe they were using a Southern Pride smoker that was onsite from when Kinfolk BBQ
used to be there.
I like a bit more smoke on my meat and the BBQ was good, but not memorable in any way.
I would recommend you try Dickey's if you haven't. The best thing I had was the hot link, which did have the smokiness I was looking for.
