Our family has had the absolute pleasure of working with Chef Allie for over a year now, and I can’t recommend her highly enough! Her talent in the kitchen is remarkable—she effortlessly executes a wide range of cuisines, from flavorful Asian fusion to authentic Italian, Mediterranean, classic American comfort dishes, and beautifully crafted vegetarian/pescatarian meals. She is also incredibly attentive to dietary restrictions or preferences and customizes menus with creativity and care. By some miracle, she even got our picky toddler eating more fish and vegetables!
We have used her predominantly as an in-home private chef and meal prepping, but also larger family gatherings or catering special events. She delivers consistently the same level of professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail. Our friends and family rave about the food, and the entire process—from planning to plating—and clean up, it is seamless. If you’re looking for a chef who can truly do it all and make every occasion unforgettable, Chef Allie is the one!

We’ve been working with Pickled Pepper Hospitality for about a month or so now and I can say it’s truly transformed my life. I’m not stressed about what I’m going to be cooking or prepping for the week, knowing my family will be fed delicious, healthy food. No more grocery shopping or cooking for me. Lunches for the kids and husband are prepped for the week, and dinners and salads are ready to heat up and serve for a family dinner every night. I can’t imagine going back to how it used to be.

Chef Allison Beasman’s culinary journey began nearly twenty years ago in West Palm Beach, where she graduated from culinary school with a deep passion for food and hospitality. As a Tampa native, she always knew she would return to the Bay Area to make a meaningful impact on the local food scene. Inspired by the rich culinary traditions of her upbringing, she strives to create dishes that not only showcase exceptional flavors but also tell a story—one that reflects her experiences, training, and the diverse influences that have shaped her craft.
Throughout her career, Chef Allison has worked alongside some of the most talented chefs in the region, each playing a role in refining her skills and expanding her culinary expertise. These experiences have instilled in her the values of discipline, attention to detail, and, most importantly, creativity. Constantly pushing the boundaries of culinary excellence, she blends classic techniques with innovative concepts to create dishes that are both refined and deeply personal.

Chef Allison is passionate about giving back and has participated in charitable competitions like Fork Fight and Feeding Tampa Bay. These experiences reinforced her belief that food can transform lives, bring people together, and create lasting memories. She finds fulfillment in using her skills to support meaningful causes, foster community connections, and contribute to initiatives that help those in need through the power of food.
A career-defining moment for Chef Allison was preparing courses at the prestigious James Beard House in 2015 alongside her culinary team. This experience deepened her dedication to culinary excellence, challenged her skills, and strengthened her passion for pushing creative boundaries in the kitchen. It served as a reminder of why she chose this path—to continuously refine her craft and share her love for food in meaningful and impactful ways.
Inspired by her grandmother’s cooking, Chef Allison sees food as more than sustenance—it’s a symbol of tradition, unity, and shared experiences. Whether through reimagined family recipes or bold, innovative dishes, she aims to evoke emotion, tell stories, and transport guests through every plate she creates. She is excited to continue growing in her culinary journey, embracing new challenges, and bringing passion and creativity to every dish.
