Dickey’s Barbecue Pit, the fan-favorite Texas-style barbecue brand, recently announced that it has teamed up with Safeway to bring its smoked sausage links to retail stores.
This month, Dickey's Barbecue Pit will be rolling out at Safeway stores. All of the sausages are MSG, nitrite, and nitrate-free, and come in various tasty flavors: Original Polish smoked sausage links, Jalapeno Cheddar smoked sausage links, and Hot Links. Best of all, the sausages are incredibly easy to prepare at home and sold at a competitive price point.
As Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey's Barbecue Restaurants, Inc., said in a recent press release, "We are proud of our partnership with Safeway, which makes it even more convenient for guests to enjoy our delicious, hickory-smoked sausage at their festivities and barbecues throughout the summer."
