Since 2009
Built Brick by Brick
Pynk Pit began in May 2009 when a passion for smoking meat turned into a purpose. What started as curiosity grew into a calling. Feeding people became Cyndi’s love language — and service became her standard.
By 2012, Pynk Pit became an official to-go location. Every step since has been intentional, disciplined, and built brick by brick.
