Houston, TX, Dec. 17, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The world\u2019s largest barbecue franchise Dickey’s Barbecue Pit<\/a> is continuing to develop new locations in their home state as they announce their latest move to develop an expansive location in the Houston, TX suburb of Clear Lake.<\/p>\n

Retired firefighter Josef Gregory inked the deal<\/a> with Dickey\u2019s earlier this year to bring the brand\u2019s authentic, Texas-style barbecue to the Clear Lake community.<\/p>\n

Dickey\u2019s is on track to open in the waterfront residence also referred to as the Bay Area and most notoriously known as the destination for the NASA Space Center in early 2021.<\/p>\n

The native-born Texan and Dickey\u2019s franchise Owner\/Operator is local to the Clear Lake area and is venturing into his first official barbecue restaurant with his wife and three sons.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy family and I have always had a passion for slow-smoked barbecue and when the restaurant across the street from the NASA facility shutdown we decided it was our opportunity to open our own barbecue franchise,\u201d said Gregory.<\/p>\n

In addition to the full line-up of Dickey\u2019s classics such as competition-style brisket, fall-off-the-bone ribs and slow-smoked chicken wings, the former first responder is planning to incorporate a full-service bar into his expansive Clear Lake location. To accommodate outdoor dining during the area\u2019s seasonally-long warmer months, the Dickey\u2019s Clear Lake location will also feature a large patio area for guests to enjoy.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a brand rooted in Texas barbecue history, we\u2019re proud to have Josef join our family and carry on the Dickey\u2019s legacy in his Houston-area community,\u201d said Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey\u2019s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc.<\/a> \u201cJosef\u2019s leadership skills as a former first responder will serve him well in this new endeavor and we look forward to his future success.\u201d<\/p>\n
