🔥 This past weekend we were part of the Cornerstone BBQ Bash!
A legit BBQ event in the IE… and it’s only gonna get bigger. 🍖🔥

✨ First year doing it, and I’ll be back.
When everyone’s serving BBQ, you gotta stand out. Next year I will know what to expect.

Day 2 👉 switched the menu.
The heat broke.
Crowds came hungry.
We got slammed.
By the end of the night… SOLD OUT and even BOOKED CATERING 🙌

I’ve wanted to do this event for 2 years, but every time I was already booked. This year I kept the date open — glad I did. 💯

Met some awesome BBQ folks, connected with the community, and brought the flavor. We served up a nice menu Even though I came back from vacation just days before (😅), it all worked out.

Already looking forward to next year 🔥 If I can keep the date open, we’ll be back with even more 🔥

We had the honor of catering a beautiful retirement party at The Pond in Redlands. A stunning venue. The menu featured Texas brisket, BBQ chicken, Tom’s mac and cheese, loaded tater tots casserole, jalapeño BBQ beans, and peach cobbler. 🔥

The feedback was nonstop. Guests said it was the best brisket they’ve ever had. Even the bartender, who samples food all the time, said it was the best they’ve tasted. The host told us she was so glad she chose us for full service and said the food was outstanding. Her husband was still raving about it the next morning. They planned this beautiful retirement party and chose us based on our reputation. That is what its all about. Very rewarding! Especially when so many walked up and told us how they enjoyed the food.

We’re proud to now be on the venue’s preferred vendor list, something we’ve always aimed for. At Tom’s BBQ Pitstop, we put more into our food 🔥 and you can taste the difference. One bite is all it takes. But trust me you will want more….

Just finished a BBQ pop-up for East Valley Water District.
We served over 150 items and kept hearing:
“That’s the best BBQ we’ve ever had here.”

Everyone had their own favorite and truth is, you couldn’t go wrong. Everything on the menu was 🔥3 meats and 4 sides. Wish we took more pictures!

Here’s what we served:

• Pulled Pork Sandwiches
• Brisket Sandwiches
• Mac & Cheese with your choice of 3 smoked meats
• BBQ Parfait — stacked with all 4 of our best sides and your choice of meat

Lots of happy guests — and that’s what it’s all about.

Life is full of moments… make sure they remember the food.
That’s one of our top goals!

Whether it’s a celebration of life, a wedding, or a backyard gathering. when the smoke settles, the flavors should linger.

From our tender brisket to the banana pudding people still talk about a year later… we’re not just serving plates ❤️ we’re serving memories.

Anna & John’s wedding menu was stacked — and even included a vegan option:
• Texas Brisket
• BBQ Pulled Chicken
• BBQ Jackfruit (vegan)
• Mac & Cheese
• Southern Corn Casserole
• Garlic Mashed Potatoes

After the wedding, they gave me a personal thank-you card — that was pretty cool!
It’s not just about serving food, it’s about being part of someone’s story.

Friday Wedding up in Big Bear 🌲
The menu:
• Prime Tri Tip
• BBQ Pulled Chicken
• Mac & Cheese
• Jalapeño BBQ Beans
• Corn Casserole
• Pineapple Slaw
• Potato Salad

Crowd favorites? The tri tip (crazy tender) and that corn casserole 🔥
But honestly they came back for seconds no matter what was on the plate.

A few comments from the night:
“Amazing!”
“We’ve been to a lot of weddings 🔥 this is the best wedding food we’ve ever had!”

We usually don’t do this many sides with just two meats, but plates were stacked high and guests were happy.

Always enjoy catering in the mountains. really lives up to its name. Into the woods. Very beautiful space in the middle of the woods. We’ll be back soon. 🌲🍽

It’s always an honor to be part of life’s big moments. This wedding was planned by the bride’s mother and by the sound of the speeches, she planned everything. You could tell she put so much into making sure everything was perfect. Originally, she booked us for a Big Bear wedding, but plans changed and it moved over 2 hours away. We made it happen. When it came to catering, it had been over a year in the works. We had many conversations, and through those, I painted the picture on how guests will enjoy the food and why. No tasting. Just trust! In our talks and our reviews. And when we gain that trust, I don’t take it lightly. It’s a big deal. I kept all day Saturday open just to make sure everything went off perfectly. This might be the most side dishes I’ve ever made for a wedding. Cooking all the meats on a new smoker. When everything wrapped up, I asked one question: did we deliver? Her response: you certainly did. But honestly, I already knew. I always have the pleasure of guests were walking up mid-meal, raving about the food and coming back for seconds. That’s when you know. The menu was Prime Tri Tip • Pulled Pork • BBQ Chicken • Mac & Cheese • Southern Corn Casserole • Jalapeño BBQ Beans • Pineapple Coleslaw. We did two buffet lines and guests were served fast. Catering a big wedding isn’t easy, but this one felt extra rewarding.

What makes Tom’s BBQ Pitstop different? The answer is simple 🔥 We don’t settle.

We hold ourselves to a very high standard when it comes to quality and service. That’s why our customers keep coming back, from birthday parties to weddings and everything in between.

And here’s the truth:
We never think our food is perfect and that’s the point.
Because chasing “perfect” keeps us improving, pushing, and leveling up every single cook.
That’s why we invested in a brand new smoker to take everything up another level. We know we can keep improving!

The food is always hot.
The flavor is always on point.
The service is always reliable.
And the passion? Always fired up.

We’re not just catering events 🔥 we’re helping create unforgettable memories. Get guests talking about the food. BBQ can be expensive so when guests talk about the food that is goal accomplishment! We have some new catering meats and sides being added soon. Thank you to all that has ever supported us! Stay Tuned……
