Dickey's is a small but clean restaurant located in a strip mall next to the Factory Outlet Center. You walk in, order your food and have a seat. They will bring it to you if you are dining in or call your name when your takeout is ready to go. They serve Texas BBQ with the traditional accompaniments: dill pickles, raw onion and jalapenos if you choose. I find the brisket to be good. It's very tender and juicy. That's no small achievement with brisket. One odd thing though. I've been to Dickey's several times and never experienced the smoky flavor the other reviewers describe. I'm not complaining because their meat is really good. The outside of the meat is black, and you might think it is what BBQ fans call "bark". Not so. Even if you eat a small piece of it with nothing else, there is no smoky taste. You can help yourself to a small selection of BBQ sauces. Their standard sauce is good. It is not as sweet as typical Texas BBQ sauce. It has a little sharper taste. The sides are ok. I've had most of them and can't say they are particularly remarkable. The do have fried okra which is a nice choice. The Great Mystery Continues Another trip to Dickey's and still no smoke. It's bizarre. The sign on the wall says "Big Yellow Cup And Hickory Smoke". They have a smoker. And yet, the meat is not smoked. It's not bad, but why not smoke it? The brisket is more like roast beef that the fabled Texas BBQ brisket. I have no idea why this is the case.
