Dickey’s Barbecue Pit debuted its own version of walking tacos with the launch of the new Brisket Chili Walking Taco. Served in a Frito's walking taco bag, the Brisket Chili Walking Taco consists of Fritos corn chips topped with Poblano Queso, shredded cheddar cheese, and green onion, all over a bed of Fritos brisket chili.
“We’re so excited to put our own spin on the walking taco,” said Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “When you pair Fritos with Legit. Texas. Barbecue.™, you get a unique barbecue experience that you’ll want again and again. It’s also a great break from holiday leftovers. I hope everyone gets a chance to try out this new menu item while it’s available! It’ll be the best walking taco you’ve ever had.”
Through the end of February 2022, Dickey's locations nationwide will be serving the Brisket Chili Walking Taco.
