Dink's Pit BBQ hosted a free Christmas dinner on December 25, from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., in an effort to alleviate some of the loneliness that often accompanies the holidays.

Co-owner James Curd Jr. said that it's their way of giving back to the community. He said that they served about 790 people Christmas Day.

Dink's is located at 2929 E Frank Phillips Blvd. in Bartlesville.
