| - Last night, I had the privilege of traveling with friends to this restaurant. I've missed pulled pork sandwiches more than ANYTHING in the world, so I entered the place extremely excited and a bit under the influence. Pulled pork sandwiches? GIMME GIMME GIMME. I can never get enough of them. Last I'd had them, I was at my grandmother's funeral after-party.
They have so many options, and all of them are barbecue-licious. Of course, I chose the pulled pork sandwich with macaroni & cheese and barbecue beans as sides. This was my first course, anyway. I sat down to eat with my dearest friends and, much to my delight, I was at once stolen away to the land of purple food faeries and euphoric fluffy clouds, all drenched in barbecue sauce.
Trust me when I say that that's a good thing.
After I finished this course, I simply had to sample more. I went up to the register and asked the polite and serviceable employees what kinds of assorted desserts were available. They told me they had pumpkin pie. And that was it...
I ordered the pumpkin pie and, ravenously true to my nature, I scarfed it down in less than a minute, feeling God return to forgive my soul its agony with every bite.
Shortly after, I glanced at my friend and grinned at a very special prospect. I was going to order another pulled pork sandwich. We left and went to the dollar store, then I returned not more than ten minutes later, insisting on another pulled pork sandwich.
The staff happily obliged. In hindsight, I probably seemed like a weirdo. I am a bit of a weirdo.
But trust me, Dickey's Barbecue Pit is worth it even if you have to deal with weirdos like me!
