Dine like it's 1999. City Barbeque rolls back prices 25 years to celebrate anniversary

City Barbeque is celebrating its 25th anniversary today with a return to 1999 pricing on some items, including dishes costing less than $5.

On City Barbeque’s Sept. 25 Wayback Wednesday, the restaurants will have special prices on select menu items:

• Hand-pulled pork: $4.95
• Turkey breast: $4.95
• Texas-style sausage with slaw: $4.95
• Full slab of St. Louis–cut ribs with Texas toast: $19.99

The first 100 guests at each location on Sept. 25 will receive a mystery scratch-off card with a barcode for a prize.

One person will win a $100 gift card. Other prizes include free meals, drinks and discounts.

Also, City Rewards members will receive exclusive anniversary offers, including a 25-cent pulled pork sandwich. New members joining through Sept. 30 will automatically get the 25-cent sandwich offer.

Rick Malir began the Columbus, Ohio-based business in 1999. The chain now operates in 10 states.

As part of the anniversary celebration, guests who share their fondest memories of City Barbeque can win prizes, including a luxury stay in The Cave at Dunlap Hollow in Hocking Hills, Ohio, with a fridge full of City Barbeque and a Visa gift card for $500; tickets to the Memphis in May Barbecue Cooking Contest with a $2,000 Visa gift card; limited editions of City Barbeque merch; and free barbecue.
