OUR STORY
Family Built. Texas Smoked.
Serving Rosenberg since 1999.
MEET THE WITTS
BUILT FROM
THE GROUND UP
Witt Pit BBQ & Catering is proudly owned and operated by Randy and Shaunna Witt. Our journey has been anything but ordinary.
It began in 1999 with a big dream: to leave our corporate careers behind and build a catering business from the ground up. We had no idea what we were getting ourselves into, but we believed in hard work, family, and taking chances.
We learned as we went, built a commercial kitchen on our property in Rosenberg, and began catering corporate lunches and special events throughout the Houston area using treasured family recipes.

THE WITT PIT OPENS ON FIRST STREET
After years of catering across Texas, we open our doors in downtown Rosenberg with a dream of serving our community every day.
TODAY
STILL FAMILY-OWNED IN ROSENBERG
We're still here, still smoking meat the right way, and still grateful for every guest who walks through our doors.
A LITTLE BUILDING WITH A BIG STORY
Over the years, one question came up again and again: “When are you going to open a restaurant?”
When the perfect building became available just around the corner from our catering kitchen, we took a leap of faith. On January 21, 2015, The Witt Pit BBQ officially opened its doors at 2516 First Street.
We didn’t have a huge renovation budget, but we had something even better: incredible friends and family who rolled up their sleeves and helped make our dream a reality. We preserved the building’s historic, rustic charm and have continued improving it one project at a time.
Although we’ve outgrown our little building and our parking lot can get a little crowded, we haven’t found another location that feels quite like home.
Our philosophy has always been...
KEEP IT SIMPLE.
SALT. PEPPER. OAK. TIME.
MORE THAN BARBECUE
None of this would be possible without our amazing staff. One of our greatest joys has been watching so many local students grow up working alongside our family before spreading their wings and becoming outstanding members of our community.
Serving others has always been at the heart of who we are. Giving back to our community is one of our greatest privileges, and it’s only possible because of the loyal customers who have supported us throughout the years.
Thank you for being a part of our story!
OUR FAMILY LOOKS FORWARD TO SERVING YOURS.
