Dickey's corporate office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Previously, the barbeque chain's corporate office had said in an email that, "while the store is currently closed, we are working with a new potential owner/operator team to re-open the store very soon and continue to serve our legit Texas barbecue to the good folks of the Erie, PA community."

One of the owners of Dickey's Barbecue Pit in Erie, John Batie, said "no comment" when asked for a response to this update. Batie said he would get back to the Times-News on any future plans.
