Excellent service and food

When looking for vendor for that does bbq, Alpha pit was #1 for catering. And I can assure you that they truly earn that #1 spot. When I tell you that food is absolutely amazing I mean it. My newly husband and I loved the food and will be going to their local restaurant from here on out. They were very cooperative , accommodating, and professional. The Alpha Pit team went above and beyond for us and I truly appreciate them.

Incredible

Not only was APS incredibly responsive, informative, and delicious, but the day of the wedding they completely outdid themselves! Not only did they serve during the buffet, but they also helped pick up trash after our guests finished eating, cut out wedding cake and put it out, and they packaged our top tier of our wedding cake. They also served my husband and I dinner, so we didn’t have to wait in line. Everyone was so friendly and amazing. I honestly cannot express how much we loved working with them. I recommend them 1,000%!

Wonderful wedding catering and bar

Working with Jason at Alpha Pitt was such a pleasure! The entire experience, from the responsiveness via email, to the tasting, to the actual wedding day, was top tier. I can't say how pleased and impressed I was with the service, food, and cleanliness on the daya of the wedding. We had our wedding in our backyard and we would have never known catering had been there after the fact! During the reception, they checked on my groom and I multiple times and were always so courteous. Afterwards I heard nothing but glowing reviews for service from the guests.
The food was phenomenal! Our wedding took place an hour+ from their home base and the food was still hot and fresh when they arrived. I can't recommend the veggies, mashed potatoes, and herb crusted pork with mushroom sauce enough! We had a signature cocktail (Kentucky mule) and they used their homemade simple syrup. Would recommend giving that a try because it was so tasty.
We had quite a bit of leftovers as well which made the value for the money so incredibly good. I cannot recommend alpha pitt smokers enough! If I have any catering needs in the future I will surely turn to them first!

Delicious & Professional!

We hired Alpha Pitt for our wedding catering & bar - and it was an absolute hit!

Jason was very easy to work with and helped answer all of our questions (and it was a lot)

The food was incredibly delicious, and the staff was extremely kind and on top of their game. The bartender was fantastic and everyone loved her!

Excellent Wedding Caterer

Alpha Pitt Smokers recently catered my daughter’s wedding reception and they were excellent from start to finish. The owner, Jason, is very responsive and easy to work with. The food was delicious and we received many compliments from guests. The prices were very reasonable for the high quality and tasty food and there was plenty of it! The team that worked the event was very professional and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. In addition they were kind and easy to work with. If you are looking for a wedding caterer, I highly recommend Jason and his team at Alpha Pitt Smokers!

We knew we wanted BBQ for our wedding but we also wanted to keep it local and it just so happens it is veteran owned. But let me tell you about the amazing service and the fooooddd.. Top notch food the root beer baked beans omg you must try, their pulled pork is a staple. Nothing and I mean nothing we tried there was bad, everything was heavenly. The owner Jason was the nicest person so accommodating so friendly and down to earth. We are defiantly going back for all the foods.

So delicious!!! 10/10

We have gotten SO many complements on our wedding food from Alpha Pit Smokers! Guests kept saying it was the best "wedding" food they have ever had. It was so beyond delicious, and the staff were so great and welcoming. We also used them for our open bar service and that was so great too. It made it so much easier to have both food and drink in one place. I look forward to eating at the restaurant in Yorktown, VA soon!
