text: If you read all my Yelp reviews so far you will find that the majority of them cover barbecue joints Yes we like barbecue My wife and I each have a sibling living in Austin Texas so we think we know the real deal when we taste it Dickeys is not quite that but it is a nice addition to the Madison cue scene and I hope it is here to stay nnThe meats have a good smoke flavor and they are tender if sometimes overcooked But that is to be expected in a fastfoodfastcasual place where I am not sure the meats are smoked inhouse daily They might be smoked elsewhere and delivered but for the price that is OK The ribs and brisket are worth ordering The chicken is a grilled breast you can get anywherennThe sauces original spicy are served hot just like in Texas and they are of that thinner Texas consistency I like them The option to top your meal with jalapenos and onions is also very Texaslike but the smoked sausage is not The slaw and potato salad are decent sides the others are unremarkable nnDickeys offers free softserve ice cream where the most clever among us can make a root beer float in our big yellow drink cups Kids eat free on Sundays with each adult meal purchased We are always satisfied when we leave What more can you expect for under
