Overperformed!!!
PEJ was incredible to work for our wedding at Allan House in April. Starting from our very first in first interaction with Kristin, she was super helpful, answered all of our questions and built us a quote quickly. It was hard to choose appetizers at our tasting because everything was so delicious. We chose the smokehouse menu because I wanted family style and something a bit more elevated. Our guests were raving about the food! PEJ even accommodated my request for passed espresso martinis during the cake cutting. The bartenders had to contend with a little bit of a bee issue at our venue but they pushed through and made it all happen. 10/10 would recommend PEJ for your catering needs! -

Great one stop shop and the food is soooo good!
I would highly recommend PEJ events if you’re looking for a one stop shop. We wanted someone with good food and could help with the setup of tables/chairs and clean-up of trash. They did not disappoint. We worked with Kristin Shrimplin and she was super responsive throughout the process. The catering staff was also very easy to work with. It rained on our wedding day and they were very flexible with the new plans. We did the BBQ buffet and everyone loved it. The brisket and ribs are sooo good! I recommend the mac n cheese shooters and burnt ends passed apps as well. -

Amazing Communication & Coordination
Lori at PEJ was immensely helpful with our wedding and really guided us through a lot of options. She is professional yet personable and really saved us time and effort by connecting many of the "dots" at play. Also, everyone at our wedding raved about the food (we went with the BBQ option). I honestly wasn't expecting people to love the food that much (when do we ever really love food at the wedding?) but it was really really great. And just know, you can work with PEJ to tweak things how you need to - just give them a call and discuss! -

Wonderful food & service
From the get-go, I was so impressed with PEJ. We truly got the "bang for our buck" and they were able to keep us within budget! Lori was so easy to work with and answered every question we had. When the wedding day came, they had it all set up so nicely and the way they served the buffet line - cutting the brisket and sausage on the spot - was phenomenal. Highly recommend PEJ for any event! -

Incredible food & perfect service & friendly staff on our wedding day
We’re so thankful to Lori and the PEJ Events team for making our wedding day unforgettable. The food was amazing! Our guests are still talking about it! From start to finish, Lori was so easy to work with. Her guidance throughout the planning process helped us feel confident that everything was going to work out great.
The food stations were a hit and felt like the perfect choice for our crowd. Everything was beautifully presented and tasted incredible. We couldn’t have been happier and would absolutely recommend PEJ to anyone planning a celebration! -

Daughter’s wedding. PEJ nailed it!
The service and quality of food were off the charts. PEJ executed flawlessly at our daughter’s wedding. Everyone raved how good the fajitas with all the fixings were. It’s difficult to serve a high quality product off site but you guys have perfected it. I highly recommend PEJ for your next event. Lori, you should be very proud of what you have and your staff.

Best service ever!
We recently hired PEJ to cater our wedding, and we could not have made a better decision! From the moment we walked in for our tasting until we closed out the celebration, their service was impeccable. The bartenders and servers were fantastic, and people raved about how great the food was. I would recommend them to all future brides!PEJ Events's reply:

The best bbq & service
Thank you so much PEJ Events for making sure our wedding menu was a hit! Many of our guests were so impressed with the beautiful barbecue & accoutrement that we served on our special day. Once we set up a tasting, we knew that this would be our catering choice; not only because of the amazing flavors & choices for food but also the amazing service provided to us by Kristin. She helped us all along the way before the wedding to make sure that our menu was accurate. She also made herself available to answer any lingering questions we had. She even recommended adding linens to our contract to make it easier for us! The team on the day of was also very professional & ensured that my husband & I got our fair share of appetizers along with our meals first. They even packed some plates for us to take after the wedding, which were demolished the next day! 10/10 would recommend! Thank you again PEJ.PEJ Events's reply:

Kristal & her team went ABOVE & BEYOND!
If you're considering hiring PEJ, look no further. You're in great hands! We can't recommend Kristal and her team enough. As a Wedding Coordinator, Kristal was my main point of contact. She is extremely personable and professional, answering all our catering logistic questions with ease and confidence. They have a great system, and their friendly team executes efficiently, going above and beyond for my clients. And let's not forget, the food was AMAZING! I had multiple guests come up to me raving about their BBQ. We can't wait to work with PEJ Catering again very soon. 10/10!

Amazing food, rave reviews from guests
Kristin with PEJ’s was super helpful in coordinating and working with us to create our menu and determine our final headcount. The food was AMAZING!! We had people from out of state and even local Texans RAVING about this BBQ and the sides. Everything was moist, even the turkey which is kinda rare for BBQ. I was thoroughly impressed! The staff was also so kind, and very on the ball. They served everyone swiftly and made sure me and my husband were taken care of the whole night. I would definitely recommend PEJ for catering!PEJ Events's reply:

Exceptional Wedding Catering!
We had the pleasure of working with PEJ Events for our wedding catering and we had such a wonderful experience with the team. From start to finish, PEJ Events (facilitated by our amazing Event Specialist, Kristin Shrimplin) provided top-notch service that really elevated our wedding day!
The food was not only delicious but beautifully presented. We opted for culinary stations to allow more freedom for our guests to pick and choose which of the flavors of Texas they might like to experience. I rarely hear people comment on the food as a highlight at a wedding, but we heard from numerous guests that they wish they could’ve gone back to get more! The variety and quality of options certainly left an impression on everyone.
In addition to cuisine, PEJ facilitated the coordination of rental services provided by Premiere Events, which was an incredibly useful addition. Their team helped us in securing linens, glassware, and table settings that truly complemented our wedding theme and vision. By combining the services, it also helped streamline delivery and vendor coordination making the process as seamless and stress-free as possible for us.
What truly set PEJ Events apart was the remarkable customer service provided by our Event Specialist, Kristin Shrimplin. From our initial tasting consultation to the day of the event, Kristin was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was always available to answer any questions and offer guidance. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and dedication to ensuring we had a smooth, memorable event were immensely appreciated!
We cannot recommend PEJ Events and Kristin Shrimplin highly enough. The exceptional catering (and coordinated rental services) made our wedding day truly unforgettable!PEJ Events's reply:
Wow! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this spectacular review! We couldn't happier that you had such a positive experience from beginning to end. -

PEJ catered my daughter's wedding. The food was awesome. The staff was very friendly and kept everything flowing flawlessly.
The food was wonderful. The staff did a great job of keeping everything flowing. Lori was very quick to respond to any and all questions. She helped me determine appropriate serving. They also catered to my vegan friends. The staff was very prompt and professional. They did a great job setting up, the presentation was lovely. At the end of the night they cleaned everything up and left the venue looking great.PEJ Events's reply:

Absolutely Wonderful!
Cannot say enough wonderful things about PEJ. From the moment we set up the tasting through the entire wedding and post-wedding process, they were incredible. Kristin was always in touch and available to answer any questions we had and went above a beyond in all aspects. All of our wedding guests were going back for seconds and could not stop talking about how good the food was. 10/10 would recommend!PEJ Events's reply:

Schwarz/Hamilton Wedding 12/15/23
If you are looking for great food, excellent service, and reasonable prices, I highly recommend PEJ events. Kristin Shrimplin is exceptional because she is quick to help with her suggestions to fit within your budget, always responds to your questions with very little return time and is just a pleasure to work with! We had a guest list of 186 people and they did such an excellent job with the food and overall service! I had so many good compliments about the food....everyone loved it! I would not hesitate to use them again ! Pam SchwarzPEJ Events's reply:

Dream Team Catering
PEJ runs their events seamlessly. They arrived on time, the food quality was unmatched, and the team was incredibly professional. Our ability to communicated prior to the event was easy as they are so responsiveness. We had no issues selecting our menu, getting linens and barware, and even setting up our food tasting day. I never worried once about the food. Even our guests with differing dietary limitations had something filling and delicious to eat that night. They are a great team to work with and I recommend them above all.PEJ Events's reply:

Texas BBQ in the Texas Hill Country
PEJ was the perfect catering and bartending vendor for our wedding. From the initial conversations with Mona, to the staff on site during the day, it was so easy to work with PEJ. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food, and we felt that we got an amazing value compared to other catering options we explored. The catering and bartending staff were absolute pros and everything went off without a hitch. I really appreciated that they continued to check on me and my husband throughout the night to see if we needed drinks or more food. They even made us a to-go bag to enjoy at the end of the reception. Thank you Mona and the PEJ team for helping us pull off the perfect wedding!PEJ Events's reply:

Amazing vendor
PEJ could not be more wonderful of a vendor to work with. They were timely and friendly and allowed us flexibility as our numbers came in for the wedding. On the wedding day we had several guests come up to use and let us know how amazing the food was. When we forgot our service knife for our cake, the caterers were more than happy to step in and lend a hand. Would hire them again!PEJ Events's reply:

I would start off by saying, the process for selecting PEJ as my caterer for my wedding was SO easy. Lori and her team are responsive, and on wedding day everything went smoothly we had no hiccups and everything turned out beautifully. Then there’s the matter of the food. The food was AMAZING! Everything was cooked perfectly and we had soooo many complements from our guests on how much they loved the food.PEJ Events's reply:

Extraordinary Performance
We were very lucky to have hired PEJ. Guests loved both food quantity and quality. Pricing was competitive for the Austin area. Service exceeded expectations - they quickly moved people through a buffet line, handled setup and breakdown, and were endlessly attentive to us both during the event and in the days leading up to it. I'm especially grateful for Kristin's responsiveness and professionalism - PEJ patiently answered our 1000 questions and was able to redo the event plan when we had to move things indoors last minute. I can't imagine a reason to pay another caterer any more than what PEJ might quote.PEJ Events's reply:

The BEST catering in Texas- seriously!
Choosing PEJ for the catering at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! From the initial contact to the tasting and finally, the big day, PEJ staff proved themselves to be attentive, knowledgable, and excellent. They are very reasonably priced, with menus that can fit almost any budget. And their food is quite honestly phenomenal- I am still getting comments a month later from family and friends raving about the BBQ at our wedding!PEJ Events's reply:

Best Caterer, Raving Guest Reviews!
We absolutely loved PEJ! The brisket was amazing! All of the sides (we had the baked potato casserole, jalapeño corn bread casserole, green beans almandine, and the southwest salad) were delicious too! They were very professional and provided amazing service! All of the guests said how awesome the food was! We were extremely happy with their BBQ buffet option. They provided our cocktail hour appetizers as well, which were so good! The bacon wrapped quail legs and the meatballs were amazing. Everything was perfect, and we could not have asked for a better food option for our reception! We loved it so much that when we got home we had the leftovers for dinner the next day. They were also very quick to respond to my many emails.PEJ Events's reply:
Victoria! We are so glad that you absolutely loved all of the food! It was such a pleasure catering your event. -

PEJ Events
BBQ was not going to be my first choice for my wedding but my venue had required preferred catering selection. However, PEJ Events had everything we wanted, was the most cost effective, and the food and drinks were perfect!! The bartender was everyones favorite at our wedding and we received the most compliments on him. He was so attentive he even had a drink sent to my dad when he noticed he was out. The servers were great and made sure that we ate our food first so we could walk around to visit our guests. Lori Simon, the event specialist for PEJ was so quick to answer any questions and emailed back so fast which I loved. The food was good and plentiful and we never ran out of mixers at the bar. The staff helped set up and tear down at the venue which took off all the work for family and friends. I would totally recommend PEJ Events for any wedding.PEJ Events's reply:
Amy, we're so glad that you loved your experience with PEJ and we could provide you with everything you needed for your big day! Congratulations to you and thanks for the review! -

Outstanding Food and Service by PeJ Events for Kibbee-Poe Wedding
The food was amazing. Everyone raved about the ribs and turkey, and all the sides were fantastic. The wait staff and lead were also great, and helped us so much. The bartenders were amazing, and Mateo was one of most thoughtful bartenders I have ever met. Outstanding job!PEJ Events's reply:
Thanks so much for the review Cris! We are so glad you and your guests loved the food and service. We loved being part of your event. -

PEJ is the way to go!
Lori Simon was a total professional representing PEJ. She was a wealth of knowledge and guided us well in our decision making. It was nice to have food/bar/linens/china/glassware all available under one roof. We had a fajita buffet and we believe the best you could get in all of Austin, Tx! You will be thrilled to work with Lori Simon and PEJ.PEJ Events's reply:
Cynthia, we are so happy you loved your experience working with us and that the fajitas were a hit! Thank you for taking the time to write this kind review. -

PEJ was Perfect for our Daughters Rehearsal Dinner!
PEJ did a fantastic job catering our daughter’s rehearsal dinner. We worked with Kristin Shrimplin, who was incredibly attentive and responsive. She provided exceptional Full-Service that included everything from coordinating for all rentals to set-up, dinner service and clean-up. The staff was courteous and organized. Our guests were all from out of town and enjoyed the wonderful, elevated BBQ from PEJ. We included the ribs, brisket, sausage, and smoked turkey along with a selection of sides…everything was delicious! And the homemade cobbler dessert bar with Amy’s Mexican Vanilla Ice Cream is NOT to be missed! We highly recommend PEJ!PEJ Events's reply:

The Perfect Reception
PEJ did an amazing job catering my daughters wedding reception!
We served appetizers and had food stations with an open bar for 150 guests. The food, presentation and service where beyond perfect. We had many compliments on our PEJ catering from guests. I would definitely use PEJ again for catering!PEJ Events's reply:

Perfect in every way…
Planning a wedding is arduous… so many moving parts and so many details. Even with a planner, it isn’t for the faint of heart. I never once had one doubt about our food and beverage service. From the initial meeting, Mona listened and helped make our food and appetizer selection perfect. She responded quickly and adapted to whatever was needed. When the outdoor wedding got rained out PEJ made all the difference getting the room flipped for the dinner. We received so many compliments on the food.. and they kept it hot, which is so important for a buffet… The servers were prompt, attentive and able to make each guest feel important. I can’t say enough about how grateful I am for PEJ and the outstanding experience they provided for my daughter’s wedding. -

Delicious & 10/10
PEJ was our first tasting out of 2 and after the 2nd one we knew PEJ was definitely the one to go with. The food at the tasting was amazing and even more when it came to our wedding the food tasted exactly the same. Our guests had nothing but great things to say about the appetizers to the main course itself. We spoke with Mona from the start and she was wonderful to work with. She was clear in communication, quick to respond and helped to stay within our budget. Food is usually the top priority to many couples and sincerely if you are thinking about PEJ just stop the search right now and book them. You will be happy and your guests will be happy. -

PEJ Events - An Excellent Choice for Catering Your Wedding!
We chose to work with PEJ Events for our catering services at Canyonwood Ridge and highly recommend them for your special event! PEJ Events is great partner to have to cater your special day. Why? First, let’s start with the food… YUMMY! Everyone commented how delicious everything was, from the incredible passed appetizers to the beautifully presented and scrumptious dinner. They offer several catering options to fit your budget and provide tastings to assist you in making your menu decisions.
Their food selections are nothing short of amazing, but more importantly, their staff is out of this world! They are professional, friendly and provide outstanding customer service for your guests.

100% would hire again
PEJ honestly made our wedding day. They were very easy to work with and the food was absolutely incredible. Our guests are still talking about how good the barbecue was! They’re truly full service and even work with a rental company to bring things like linens with them on the wedding day. We also used them for our rehearsal dinner, so they were able to bring our linens with us the night before so we could start setting up early. If you’re margarita people, their mix is fantastic and it’s included with their deluxe bar package. We used this as one of our signature cocktails and ran out of tequila pretty early because of it! Overall PEJ was one of our best investments for our wedding and if your wedding is in the Austin area, booking them is a no brainer. -

PEJ was amazing. Their performance exceeded my expectations in every way imaginable. The food was excellent, their service was amazing, and their professionalism was impeccable. As a doctor, I usually do not recommend companies, but I would use PEJ again without any reservation. They helped make my daughter’s wedding “The most perfect day she had ever dreamed of”. -

A perfect 10!
From the start, communication with PEJ was incredible. They were so accommodating to all our requests- adding and removing things from our quote and providing a very thoughtful vegetarian option. We did the BBQ buffet from PEJ catering and got so many compliments from our guests. My aunt even asked them what they put on their broccoli salad and they gave her the ingredients! PEJ brought my husband and I plates of food as soon as we sat down, and also packed two more plates for us to take with us at the end of the night (which we definitely devoured the second we got to our honeymoon suite). The price and the quality of food can’t be beat! Our coordinator told us that PEJ was one of our most on-top-of-it vendors that day! -

PEJ catering
We used PEJ for our wedding and they were amazing! Their attention to detail and quick responses, as well as flexibility in last minute changes, were so helpful and appreciated! We have been to hundreds of weddings where the food left more to be desired but we were very impressed by our meal and the service they provided on our wedding day! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone! We worked with Kristin to for our wedding and she was amazing. I only have wonderful things to say about this vendor and can’t recommend them enough! -

The best catering team!
Where do I even start with PEJ! From the very beginning Mona was just AMAZING. She took such good care of us and got us set up for our food tasting. We had to go to a Pok-e-jos off of 360 / South Lamar for our food tasting and the team there was so awesome. They took such good care of us and of course the food was delicious! We booked PEJ right away with no hesitation. We were advised that Mona was leaving PEJ but left is in such great hands with Kristin. Kristin is the best pre-event catering person we have ever come across. Being a very anxious bride, I had a million and one questions, food allergy, diet needs that guest had that needed to be taken care of. Kristen made sure that all of our needs and guest needs were taken care of. She was always there to answer my million and one questions. I am just so speechless with all that she has done for us. Kristin truly made our wedding day so perfect on the catering side, it was just so smooth. The wedding day team members and lead were just so so amazing and really went out of their way to make sure we were all taken care of. I couldn't thank PEJ enough for being apart of our special day and making everything so perfect! Kristin made this all possible for us . Thank you a million times PEJ & Kristin❤️ -

Total Dream Team!
PEJ Events was a DREAM to work with - absolutely a five star experience! Not only were they able to provide catering services, but we were able to also have bartending services, as well as linens due to their partnership with Premier Rentals. While I could go on and go about our experience here are my strongest reason you need to stop scrolling and reach out to them TODAY!
*Communication - at no point did I ever feel ignored, forgotten, or my concerns unheard. The team was prompt to respond and always kind and knowledgeable! Anna was our point of contact and was amazing!
*Food Itself - Um…DELICIOUS! Our guests have continued to comment on how yummy this or that was at our wedding. As foodies, my husband I love this!! Book a tasting and find out!
*Client Experience on Wedding Day - Our PEJ Lead was Randy and we were so impressed. As soon as we had a free moment he sweetly came over, introduced himself, and walked us through what we should expect from them that day. It made us feel confident and reassured this piece of our wedding was in good hands. Then, during the photos after the ceremony, they went out of their way to bring us over drinks and some appetizers since we were busy taking pictures during cocktail hour. Lastly, we were impressed that Randy checked in with us to see what we would want to eat and pulled it together and had it at our sweetheart table after we entered our reception! Shout out to Doc as well behind the bar making delicious drinks and getting all the laughs! -

Great Texas BBQ
Kristin and her team did a fantastic job. They quickly came and set everything up the day of the wedding for us to have our own staff serve our guests. Everything was organized, accounted for, and looked great. Most importantly the food was delicious! Everybody loves good barbecue at a Texas wedding and they were exactly that. The turkey, brisket, and sausage were all wonderful and all our guests raved about the sides (Beans, Cole Slaw, Mac and Cheese). There was plenty of food to go around. Highly recommend. -

Our guests left full and happy!
We used PEJ on recommendation from the venue our daughter selected and also the lodging venue recommended them as well. I’m always dubious about wedding buffets in general but let me tell you the passed appetizers during cocktail hour were beautifully presented and tasted wonderful. I’m addition to guests being served the service staff made it a point to serve all the bridal party as they posed for their photos. Dinner was served inside and beautifully presented. There had been a snafu with our rentals not being easily located where a third party had placed them. PEJ event staff were able to locate the crates and in spite of having very little time, had the place settings out and even got the napkins knotted and placed. The food was scrumptious! We had pork tenderloin and chicken breasts and they were cooked perfectly, served warm, full of flavor and beautifully presented. The sides were also excellent and those rolls! Oh my they were delicious. The salad was fresh and the dressing was just the right balance. Communication was professional throughout and the on site staff members were efficient from set up to service to clearing tables and extremely friendly and unobtrusive. Pricing was very competitive and they worked with us on some special menu considerations. It was a great experience. I have done hundreds of special events professionally for my job and have dealt with many types of venues, numerous caterers and a variety of menus over the years. I am picky and PEJ did not disappoint on even one item. -

The best food and service ever
THE BEST FOOD EVER! I have been to a lot of weddings and I always notice how the food is just never that good. For my wedding, I wanted the food to be amazing and I found that with PEJ. GET THE MAC AND CHEESE YOU WON'T REGRET IT. not only is everything amazing, but the portions are huge and the staff is so nice and helpful. If I had to do my wedding all over I would 100% hire them again! -

Delicious Food, Awesome Staff!
Our coordinator Lori answered all our questions promptly leading up to the wedding, and everything was smooth and organized both before and on the day of our wedding. The day-of event staff was professional, positive, and and flexible with the details that change on the day of the wedding (we moved indoors due to the 100+ heat!). The lead, Randy, was incredibly helpful and wonderful. He made sure we had food, drinks, and even brought water out to the wedding party taking photos in the aforementioned heat. And the food was so good, we wished we had gotten to eat more! :) -

Just fantastic
They were fantastic! Not only did they have a wonderful package deal with our venue, they were super responsive and helpful getting our tasting setup and all the other details leading up to the wedding. We went with the ribs, brisket, jalapeno cornbread, broccoli salad and baked potato casserole… let me tell you, everything was GREAT!!! All of our guests kept complimenting the food and asked about it all weekend. Some of our out-of-town guests even went to eat at a local Pokejo’s one more time before they left. They were PERFECT. Simply delicious. We had a huge wedding but they got everyone served quickly and efficiently. Just an excellent vendor. We are so grateful. Thank you Lori for all of your help and patience!!! -

Catering for Our Wedding!
PEJ was so flexible with us when we had to reschedule our wedding twice due to the pandemic. During the wedding, they were not only delicious but their staff was so professional. We had a dedicated server who came up to us while we were taking pictures outside in the hot sun and gave us refreshments. We felt cared for and know our guests did too. They also threw in a free cake cutting service for us so that was a bonus! They were a preferred vendor at our venue so they were able to help us break down tables at the end of the evening, which they did so quickly! They are awesome and worth it! -

I will recommend PEJ to EVERYONE until the day I leave the earth. If you spend more $ than PEJ charges then light your $ on fire
I seriously have no idea where to begin so I’ll start with the cliffnotes summary – I will recommend PEJ to EVERYONE until the literal day I leave this earth. I’ll repeat this at the end but hear me now, regardless of if you’re a foodie or a practical/conservative/basic bride, you can’t go wrong with PEJ. In fact, I’ll go so far as to say if you spend more money on food than PEJ charges then you might as well light those extra funds on fire.
A little about me, I’m your very middle-of-the-road type of human/bride, in the fact I wanted a nice wedding but didn’t want to offer up my first-born to pay for it. I toured a thousand venues (five) and when it came to their catering suggestions this was my speech – “I don’t want to pay for a 5-star dinner for everyone but I also don’t want everyone to leave and gripe about the food for the next five years (and we have some picky people attending the wedding and in the family)” – and EVERY single venue suggested PEJ. Another important fact about me is that I like good food but I’m not going to classify myself as a “foodie” by any means, so honestly I had a bit of insecurity regarding my food/catering choices because I secretly asked myself “will this be sufficient for the food snobs and the guests who I know genuinely judge weddings based on the quality of food”.
Also, now that I’m actually married I can admit this on this on the internet, but I straight up refused to do a tasting. I live 6 hours from Austin and was starving myself for the wedding, so naturally I’m not going to waste 12 hours of a round-trip drive to eat food. Instead, I just read their reviews and found a lot of comfort with my decision, especially given the fact that some “Karen” hadn’t blasted PEJ for anything.
So, I called PEJ (late, like 5:45 or 6pm) one afternoon, after receiving a lecture on how I needed to quit putting off the catering call, and the most incredible human being on planet earth, Jason King, happened to answer the phone on his way out the door (after hours – and we should all appreciate how special this is because I personally am not going to answer a work call after hours). To make this long story short, Jason basically became my best friend, pseudo wedding planner until my wedding planner took over everything (I bought a 6-week package and wish I would have just paid to have her full time because she’s an angel on earth in disguise as a wedding planner - Amanda Blue Events), and helped me navigate the very stressful, upsetting, and confusing waters of planning a large wedding in Austin – ALL without making me feel dumb, simple, or classless when I genuinely expressed my thoughts/wishes. (I legitimately consider Jason a close friend of mine now – regardless of if he considers me a bff or a weirdo (lol) and it’s because he’s one of the best people on planet earth – so because of that I’m convinced PEJ is the company it is because of him and the staff he has around him).
All of this being said, one of the BIGGEST compliments I got about my very large and (I’m going to be honest here) lavish, “done-right”, over-the-top floral, open-bar, 22 person-deep bridal party, ridiculous volume of guest favors, over-the-top dessert bar (complete with macaroons, several custom popcorn flavors, bonbons, cake-pops, basically the works), and detailed wedding, was how amazing the food was. I was like, are y’all joking that’s what you noticed????!!! The food/catering was the LEAST stressful freaking thing I did and what I had prided myself on not “splurging” on. Even my closest friends were in shock because they knew I wasn’t trying to blow the budget on food, yet everyone was literally BLOWN AWAY with how amazing the food was. I’ve heard a million funny stories about how people were hoarding cocktail hour appetizers because of how good they are (another reason to hire Amanda Blue Events is that she snagged us appetizers and drinks during family pictures), how a million people got seconds, and overall just how impressive the food was. The food was so good that we literally barely had enough leftovers for the planner to send HALF of a plate with my husband and I. But honestly, the best part of the whole freaking PEJ/Catering/Food Compliment situation, was that I gained a friend for life out of Jason. They say weddings are awful and stressful (and to a very large degree that’s not inaccurate), but one of the LEAST stressful parts of my whole wedding was the ENTIRE catering experience, which made the ridiculous compliments we’ve gotten weeks after the wedding on the quality of food/service almost comical since it was the most seamless process.
P.S. Jason King straight up came to my final walkthrough with my planner at Canyonwood Ridge and helped design the entire wedding day to make things perfect. I even said, “hey y’all I have family that only drinks Diet Doctor Pepper and I don’t want them waiting in line at the bar for these drinks” so Jason and Amanda (Amanda Blue Events) literally rearranged the entire layout of the water/appetizer stations, bars, and buffets so my family could be accommodated.
Moral of the story is this, regardless of if you’re a foodie/boujee bride or a practical/conservative/basic bride, you can’t go wrong with PEJ. In fact, I’ll go so far as to say if you spend more money on food than PEJ charges then you might as well light those extra funds on fire. If you need extra convincing then know this, some of the people who attended my wedding, were in my wedding, and in my own family are super freaking picky and go to the “Wedding Capital of Texas” on the reg for high-end weddings, and they still went OUT OF THEIR WAY to compliment the food. So, I owe a large part of the BEST day of my entire life to PEJ and I would literally get on a phone call with anyone who is struggling with a catering decision, just to share more of my experience! (My name is Makenna Carson (new last name Rockafellow) look me up if you have questions)
In conclusion, hire PEJ and you won’t regret it.

Grade-A Texas BBQ for ANY Wedding
PEJ catering was a hit at our wedding! Excellent food, excellent service, and they went above and beyond to make sure everything was COVID friendly for our guests who were able to make it during such a weird time. If you're looking for a caterer to blend the beautiful taste of Texas BBQ while matching the elegance of any wedding, PEJ is the vendor for you. -

We loved pej!
PEJ was the perfect choice for our wedding. Mona was so knowledgeable, responsive and easy to work with throughout the entire process. We had to make some fairly significant changes to our guest count and Mona made sure that we received top tier service and made the most of our money. On wedding day the presentation was exactly what we wanted/expected and our guest couldn't stop raving about how tasty the Texas BBQ was! PEJ really elevates what they serve and they truly make the clients a top priority. If we had to do it all over again we'd select PEJ time and time again! -

Delicious Texas BBQ
We used PEJ Events as the full-service caterer for our wedding. They were very easy to work with prior to our event and took care of everything for us day-of. The PEJ staff were super friendly and efficient. Most importantly, the food tasted great and we got a ton of compliments from our guests! We would highly recommend PEJ to anyone looking for classic Texas BBQ. -

Positive Experience
Amazing food, and amazing service! When it came to choosing food for our wedding, we definitely knew bbq was the right choice for us. PEJ was so professional to work with, and on the day of our wedding they went above and beyond to make sure us and our guests had an amazing experience. The lead on our wedding day came up to us as soon as we sat down to get our plates ready, they knew my dietary restrictions and ensured I could eat everything on my plate. Additionally, all of our guests were served in a timely manor. Everyone had food prior to us finishing our meals. And everyone was raving about how good the food was the next day! -

Lori and team with PEJ Events were outstanding for our wedding. The service was absolutely spot on, the bartending was excellent, and everyone was so kind and courteous to all of our guests. For our wedding we had the brisket, sausage, and chicken with side salads, Mac and Cheese, and the unbelievably good cornbread casserole (Would HIGHLY recommend). Super pleased with everything, and would definitely recommend! -

We are so impressed with the PEJ staff especially during this pandemic. They are absolutely professional, organized, masked, gloves and efficient. They are prompt on time throughout the whole wedding, set up our spaced beautifully according to plan and serving food and clean up were done extremely fast. Everyone was kind and we really enjoyed their customer service even with a reschedule wedding date. On top of it all, the food was AMAZING!!! Who doesn't love Texas BBQ?! AND we ordered their peach and cherry cobbler with Amy's Mexican vanilla ice cream. WOW!!! Absolutely delicious. Thank you PEJ for the wonderful food! -

Best food and service ever
There are 3 things that people will remember from a wedding:
1. How happy the bride and groom looked
2. The music
3. THE FOOD
PEJ Events DID NOT DISAPPOINT! We chose to do Texas BBQ with mac n cheese and veggies served Family Style! We got soooo many compliments on how amazing the food and staff were! Choosing family style serving was perfect for us too. Not a lot of catering companies offer this style and it did not cost much more to upgrade to it from buffet. The food came out super quickly and people were able to eat so much faster than they would have with a buffet style!
Anna was our PEJ event rep and she was amazing! She was super quick to reply to emails and always on top of everything! We ordered our linens through the catering and they set it all up perfectly!
THANK YOU PEJ EVENTS!

amazing food and service!
PEJ was incredible! I would recommend them over and over again. From the start, we had a wonderful experience. Anna!!! Holy cow, that girl needs a raise - she was AMAZING! She was so quick in our responses and met all of our needs without question. When it came to the food, my guests raved about how delicious everything was. My uncle, who is a brisket connoisseur commented that it was one of the best briskets he's ever had. We had an attendant the whole night who did anything we asked. He was so nice and I couldn't have had a better experience with PEJ. If we need any catering in the future, hands down, we will be going through them. -

Pej is the best!
We used PEJ for our son's wedding rehearsal dinner this past weekend. They came early, completely organized, set up the appetizers and bar and were ready to serve before the designated time. In fact, the rehearsal was faster than anticipated and they were flexible enough to start serving early. They communicated with me the whole evening - professional, personableand attentive! The food was great (BBQ turkey and brisket) and when our speaches went long, they somehow kept Amy's ice cream cold and the cobblers hot!
We had one guest that was Gluten Free and Randy went out of his way to tell her exactly what she could and couldn't eat. He even brought food to her! We appreciate the attention to detail and highly recommend them. Talk to Lori to reserve them. She was the reason we booked. She kept in contact, yet didn't pressure. -

More than we could have hoped for.
If you are looking for a caterer in the Austin area, call PEJ. They was fantastic.
We worked with Anna from PEJ and could not have been happier with the food and service we received. Anna was always easy to get in touch with and very responsive. Once we met her to taste the samples of food they offered, we were sold immediately, not just by the delicious food, but by the high quality, professional service.
The food was AMAZING. Guests at our wedding were raving about it. We had various stations of food that changed throughout the night and then servers walked around with appetizers and other treats. Every single dish had a high end restaraunt presentation and taste. -

Delicious and budget friendly
A MUST when looking over catering options. They’re a full service company so they set everything up for you which takes a huge pressure off. We originally chose them bc their price point was in our smaller budget but the food was SO good you would’ve never guessed. Anna was really patient with me and was very quick at responses. For the day of our wedding we had a tall man with a beard as the team lead and he was so thoughtful. He brought us drinks halfway through our cocktail hour while we were busy taking pictures and then made sure we had everything we needed for the night. -

Affordability without sacrificing quality
I worked with Anna at PEJ Events and it was such a seamless process. Her responsiveness was impeccable. We went with a buffet BBQ and a couple different hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour. We had so many compliments on the hors d'oeuvres and the BBQ dinner was delicious. They also provided a vegan option for guests! PEJ was extremely helpful in the setup and tear down of our wedding. They helped set up/tear down all chairs and tables for the ceremony and reception. Would highly recommend to all brides! -

Worth way more than they charge - EXCELLENT!
Lori and PEJ events were incredible. The food was honestly one of the cheaper ones we could find - driving the vendor choice, but the service, responsiveness, quality and excellent taste of food made them worth way more than they charge. Got many compliments after our wedding about how good the food was! Used them for bar service and cake service as well! Bar tender personally brought us our drinks of choice :). Highly HIGHLY recommend. -

Fabulous food, Excellent service
We chose Pok-e-Jo's Smokehouse for our daughter's wedding at Texas Old Town. The menu was brisket, ribs, smoked mixed vegetables, cornbread casserole, mashed potato casserole and peach cobbler. We enjoyed working with PEJ's from the first email encounter, to the tasting which was truly amazing. The food and service on the wedding day was absolutely fantastic. The staff was professional and very sweet and friendly. I can't say enough how happy we were with the total process from beginning to end. Even our Venue hosts complimented the company and employees. This is a top notch company with great food and service at a reasonable price. -

PEF was awesome for our wedding! I could not be happier with them. Their service was absolutely stunning, they treated it like it was the most important wedding they had ever done. I was so impressed with their professionalism. Also, we had several guests come tell us how fantastic the food was. In particular, the Wagyu Sirloin was ridiculously good and commented on several times. The cost compared to other caterer is a great value! I will HIGHLY be recommending PEJ to anyone holding events they want top notch service for a great price too. Thank you PEJ for our beautiful day and all your hard work! -

A wedding meal so delicious we ate it twice!
We had such a fabulous team that made our wedding perfect, and PEJ was such a huge part of that! Anna at PEJ worked with us from the beginning, and was incredibly responsive and flexible in helping us craft our wedding menu. And the food was beyond delicious - still dreaming of the turkey, brisket, and jalapeno cornbread casserole ! I can’t even tell you how many compliments we got on the food from our friends and family, they were blown away! The service and attention to detail made us feel special, and made our guests relaxed and happy too. We ate the leftovers that PEJ packed for us with my parents a couple days after the wedding, and it was such a treat to enjoy our super tasty wedding meal twice! -

Perfect tasting experience
This review is based off of the tasting only. We live in Houston and traveled to Roundrock for our tasting. They made sure that everything was prepared when we arrived and they reserved our own section to taste. It was as easy as it could be. The store manager was super helpful! Everything was delicious! Definitely recommending! We booked them for our wedding! -

PEJ made the food service out our wedding seamless!
We used PEJ events for the catering at our March 2019 wedding, and our contact was Lori. They did a great job! The dinner part of the reception was seamless, and the food was tasty and the staff did a great job. We went with the fajitas option and it was a big hit, as were the appetizers for the cocktail hour. They made all of the food service after the ceremony until the cleanup at the end of the night so seamless and professional, and really took a lot of the worry off of us so that we could enjoy the reception. So glad we found them! -

PEJ Events: Wedding Catering Experts
What can I possibly say but WOW! PEJ Events catered our wedding and it was spectacular! Lori Simon was absolutely essential to all communication, tastings, questions, and answers. Her patience with brides, weddings, and all the craziness in between should be acknowledged as Sainthood. She truly is a gift to PEJ! From day #1 of the planning process, Lori was helpful, kind, and understanding. She took time to get to know ME as a person and not just a bride. Her investment in helping allow PEJ Events to cater your wedding is in YOU first. She is happy to help with suggestions, linen needs, staffing numbers, and all things in between. Lori and her team brought my wedding to the next level! The on-site staff team was top-notch, helpful, kind, and overall FUN!!! They interacted with my family, friends, and my now husband, with kindness, excitement, and an abundance of love. The food was AHHH-MAZING! They offer everything for your big day to make each belly happy, full, and wanting more because it was sooo good! THANK YOU! -

Great service and food
We chose PeJ as our caterer and bartenders. We were scheduled promptly for a tasting and everything was delicious. The jalapeno cornbread casserole is must! Lori was professional and able to answer our questions quickly. They were able to add a couple of last minute meals the week of the wedding. We highly recommend! -

PEJ Events was totally AMAZING
Our experience with PEJ events was absolutely phenomenal! SO HELPFUL, SO COOPERATIVE, and SO ATTENTIVE to all the Guests needs, they made my Son's wedding event something we won't ever forget.
To Team Lead Yubiel, to the bartenders and servers - Derick, Bobby, Randy, Cole, Alexander and Nagely, I say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
And I haven't even mentioned the food!!! WE had the Texas BBQ package and the food was simply amazing! A lot of comments by Guests raving about the quality of all the dishes served.
BRAVO, PEJ events! Take a Bow!!!!! -

Easy Coordination, Budget Friendly, DELICIOUS
WOW! I could not recommend PEJ Events more! Mona (PEJ’s coordinator) was an absolute dream to work with. She helped us serve our guests while sticking to our budget. And the quality of food WOW! Above any of our other vendors, our guests are still raving about how delicious the food was. When my now husband wanted a BBQ buffet for our wedding, I was worried it would have a “backyard barbeque” feel, but that was not the case. The food was incredible, the setup was elegant, and the staff had unparalleled service. I cannot recommend PEJ more, and we will certainly use them again at any future event we have!

Great food, great service!
My husband and I found PEJ through our venue's preferred vendor list. We did a destination wedding in ATX and knew our out-of-town guest would be excited about BBQ. We were quickly impressed with PEJ and their personalized, punctual service. Lori, one of PEJ's wedding specialists, was always timely in responding to emails and answering all my questions and flexible when making adjustments. Overall, the company was wonderful to work with. We highly recommend them for your future event! -

1 word… Delicious!!!
1 word… Delicious!!! We chose PEJ Events after a recommendation from someone and we were so happy that we did. The food was beyond amazing. From the moment we sat down for our tasting we knew we were in for a treat. We loved the idea of having different food stations and the Mac & Cheese bar was a giant hit. Plus, who could go wrong with a cobbler bar at the end of the night. PEJ has a wonderful staff that went above and beyond. From their servers to the fabulous bar tenders the night could not have gone better. Thank you PEJ for a fabulous night. -

Great Service, Better Food!
Lori was the absolute best! She helped my fiancé and I put together an amazing and unique menu that fell well within our budget. She worked with us on all the tricky details of the day and helped us think through a perfect setup for our guests. The staff that came out did a wonderful job as full-service caterers. Our guests were blown away by the mojito bites and smoked fajitas. The servers and bartenders were very courteous and all made an effort to congratulate both my husband and I after we tied the knot. PEJ catered my brother's wedding a few years prior and I'll be shocked if my wedding is the last time I get to experience PEJ at a wedding - all our engaged friends were asking who made the delicious food! -

This BBQ is insanely good!
The food at PEJ Events (Pok-e-Jos) was SO GOOD. I had friends texting me weeks after telling me how much they loved the food (and wanted more ribs and corn casserole!). The servers were so friendly and made us and our guests feel immensely taken care of. I highly recommend using them for your wedding! -
