(Eastvale, CA) Bill and Rowena Seward are ready to start serving authentic Texas barbecue to their community.

On Friday, customers will enjoy a day of giveaways. The party continues on Saturday with $2 Pulled Pork Big Barbecue sandwiches from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. and a drawing for a $500 gift card good at Dickey’s Barbecue Pit.
“We can’t wait to celebrate opening with the Eastvale community,” said owner Bill Seward. “Dickey’s Barbecue Pit brings the same sense of pride and solid family values that are a perfect complement to Eastvale.”
Bill Seward was born and raised in Maryland but moved to California in 1998 to pursue a career in Hospitality Management. He has lived in Eastvale since 2007.
