Dickey's Barbecue Pit recently expanded its selection of pulled pork offerings with the addition of its limited-edition Pulled Pork Street Tacos. While the chain rolled out pulled pork sliders earlier this year, now customers can enjoy the same delicious ingredients in the form of a tasty taco.
The new Pulled Pork Street Tacos consists of the chain's signature pulled pork, combined with coleslaw and spicy barbecue sauce. The ingredients are then folded into two four-inch corn tortillas for a gluten-free meal option. For those who are looking for something more filling, the tacos can be purchased as part of a combo that includes four tacos, one side dish and one large drink.
The dish not only caters to those looking for a hearty, meat-based dish, but also to gluten-free customers as well.
