Business partners and Owner/Operators Bryan Roche and Kevin Roche saw an opportunity to take their franchising experience to new heights with Dickey's Barbecue Pit. "I experienced a meal at a Dickey's location in Minnesota and was blown away and immediately called Bryan to tell him we had found our new franchise venture," said Kevin Roche. With previous franchising experience with fried-chicken chain, Kentucky Fried Chicken, the California natives are eager to give Fresno residents a taste of the Lone Star State. Bryan adds, "We look forward to serving guests the same mouthwatering slow-smoked barbecue we have fallen in love with several years ago."
