About this restaurant

  • Kid-friendly
  • Good for groups
  • Neighborhood gem
Bringing authentic southern BBQ to Alaska is our passion, is our mission. We thrive on being true to traditional southern low n slow smoked meats and classic BBQ sides. We skimp on no part of that age old tradition, we replicate the BBQ masters every step of the way. We honour the ‘Q’ and all that it stands for. We don’t follow trends and we don’t sway from classic BBQ – well sometimes, but only rarely and then not very far. If they don’t do it down south, you likely won’t see it at our PiT. The only exception to that rule, may be the occasional salmon or halibut special – but with Alaskan gems like our local fresh and troll caught ocean delicacies how can we resist? And, of course, we don’t miss out on the opportunity to pair our BBQ with some of our great local Alaskan brews.

    Had a 7pm reservation on Sunday night. It turns out they close at 7pm on Sunday. Open Table said they were open until 9pm. The employees didn’t really seem to care. Will not be back.
