It was all

a dream.

My name is Victor Diaz Jr. For nearly 30 years, I have been dedicated to crafting barbecue that speaks to the soul. What started as a simple backyard obsession has grown into a lifelong pursuit of perfection, where I blend time-honored smoking techniques with bold, unforgettable flavors.  Over the years, my commitment to barbecue has evolved from a hobby into a true calling. Now, it’s time to take that passion beyond the backyard. Pittmaster Vic BBQ is ready to carve out a loyal following.  This endeavor is more than just a business — it’s a movement driven by smoke, flavor, and heart.

From building my own smoker many years ago.

Pittmaster Vic's original Ugly Drum Smoker, built with help from my dad.  Great way to learn proper smoking!

To the joy of cooking on a Professional Grade Smoker!
