Equity [Abstract]  
Partners' Equity Partners' Equity:On August 3, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a unit repurchase program authorizing the Partnership to repurchase units for an aggregate amount of not more than $250 million. There were 1.2 million limited partnership units repurchased during the three months ended March 26, 2023 at an average price of $43.84 per limited partner unit for an aggregate amount of $54.6 million. There was $8.0 million of remaining availability under the repurchase program as of March 26, 2023. We repurchased units representing the remaining availability under the 2022 repurchase program during April 2023. There were no unit repurchases during the three months ended March 27, 2022. Unit repurchases were subject to Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Subject to applicable rules and regulations, we could repurchase units from time-to-time in the open market or by negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of repurchases were based on a variety of factors, including liquidity, capital needs of the business, market conditions, regulatory requirements, and other corporate considerations. No limit was placed on the duration of the repurchase program. The Partnership was not obligated to repurchase any minimum dollar amount or specific number of units, and could modify, suspend, or discontinue the program at any time.
