    Tom Thumb was the best decision we made!

    Tom Thumb was one of the more inexpensive options for wedding catering, but everyone who used him gave excellent reviews. We were blown away by the quality. Everything was delicious and there were plenty of leftovers. Carl worked with us to cater to a few specific needs and made the whole process stress free. We would highly recommend for any wedding or function!

    The Best Wedding Food EVER

    We LOVE Tom Thumbs :) Planning a wedding in 2020, and on top of that, my husband and I live in Arizona. Tom made it so easy to talk about our menu over the phone and plan it all out. He was so flexible when we had to postpone too! Every single person at my wedding loved the food. Our wedding was at the end of October and my friends and family are still texting me and telling me how good the food was. I actually had several friends tell me it was "the best wedding food they've ever had." I can't disagree! My husband and I are huge seafood fans and I'm still dreaming about the crab bites.... don't hestitate! If you want some good southern cooking, look no further. :)

    Finger licking GOOD!!

    Tom Thumbs cookout was delicious!! He catered our wedding day and rehearsal dinner and all of our guest including us could not stop raving about the food! Tom is such a stand up man and accommodated us and our food requests so much! He was a pleasure to work with and gave us such a great deal for 100 people that did not break the bank! I highly recommend catering with him for any events you have coming up!!!

    Carl was so friendly and accommodating- not to mention his food is amazing! He took extra care to meet with us several times to make sure everything was perfect leading up to our wedding day. At the wedding, he and the servers were so nice, professional, and helpful. Our guests raved about the BBQ and fried shrimp!

    My family and I can not say enough about Carl! When we first went to the outer banks for our wedding vendors Carl invited us to his beautiful home to try his food. His neighbor brought some fresh tuna over and even though we hadn't planned on incorporating it into our dinner menu it was so good we couldn't resist. The BBQ, tuna, and shrimp were fantastic. As soon as we left, we ALL knew Carl was going to cook at our wedding the following year and for the rest of our trip we just wanted to go back to his house. Through out the year Carl kept in touch and felt like another family member helping me organize the wedding! When the day finally arrived he was earlier, prepared, organized, and the food turned out Better than we could have imagined! We were so very lucky to have found this gem for our special day. Even our northern family members loved the food. The entire week of vacation we spent eating left overs and some even made its way up north! To this day we still get the taste for some of Carls food. I would highly recommend Carl and toms thumbs cookout to any BBQ lover! The cost was right on budget as well.

    Carl was awesome! He was so friendly and personal and welcomed us in his house to try his famous bbq. My friends and family were still talking about the bbq and side items the day after the wedding. So reasonably priced too!

    Excellent service, food, delivery and price

    Carl is the best! Super easy to work with, very accommodating and to top it off... he is sweet as sugar! The food was amazing! The bbq was cooked that morning and pulled at my reception! The hush puppies are to die for! Mac n cheese was the bomb, from the kids! Beans and slaw, couldn’t be beat! Totally recommend, price, value, quality, quantity and taste! Loved it!

    Carl and his team were really terrific! Leading up to my wedding, Carl made sure everything was squared away and on the day his entire team rocked it. The food was fantastic (which we ate all the leftovers the next day) and when my nephew couldn't eat the BBQ sauce due to an allergy, they prepped some special ribs with the dry rub only. I needed a bartender, Carl locked one in for me. I needed some extra people to stay and clean up the desserts and drinks, Carl provided. The girls that were there (blanking on their names) were so extremely helpful. I couldn't have picked a better caterer. I would recommend Tom Thumbs Cookouts to anyone looking for delicious BBQ for a reasonable price and excellent service!
