July 02, 2020 // Franchising.com // DALLAS - As grocery store traffic and canned-good demand continues to surge, Dickey’s Barbecue Pit launched its complete product line of at-home barbecue beans in Walmart locations across the U.S.

Dickey’s Original Barbecue Beans, Jalapeño Barbecue Beans, Brown Sugar Hickory Beans, Sweet Molasses Beans and Texas Barbecue Beans are now available in 1,500 Walmart locations across 16 states and online.

“We’ve been servin’ up comfort food since 1941, and we’re proud to partner with Walmart to share our Southern favorite barbecue beans with new families across the globe,” said Roland Dickey Jr., CEO of Dickey’s Capital Group.

Dickey’s partnership with Walmart dates back to 2016, when the Dallas-based barbecue joint introduced its lineup of famous sausages in more than a thousand Walmart grocery stores.

“After selling out every day for years at our stores, we teamed up with Walmart to bring our same delicious sausages and hot links to grills at home,” Dickey said.

Dickey’s offers a wide collection of beans, sausages, spices, rubs, sauces and hardwood pellets online for the everyday pit master to enjoy at home.
