Dickey's First Responders Relief Combo has been created by the barbecue brand as a new offering that will help to support first responders in the face of the California wildfires. The meal puts the Hot Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwich in the spotlight in your choice of either smoked or crispy finish alongside a side of barbecue beans and the brand's signature Big Yellow Cup. The meal will be on offer through February 2025 with a portion from every one sold donated to relief efforts for those affected by the wildfires.
CEO Laura Rea Dickey spoke on the Dickey's First Responders Relief Combo saying, "At Dickey’s, we stand with our first responders in times of crisis. These brave men and women put their lives on the line to protect our communities, and we are honored to support them through this initiative both in our restaurants and through The Dickey Foundation.”
