Cindy and her Team were absolutely amazing. Being celiac, we had a Taco Bar for dinner and Mashed Potato Bar for Cocktail Hour and Cindy was more than happy to walk me through her ingredient and plans which was greatly appreciated. My guests still talk about how amazing the food was, and I don't disagree! Dessert was a cookie Bar. Cindy's team was amazing and more than happy to make all the items gluten free and even used my recipes. The chocolate mousse with raspberries was divine. We couldn't be happier with Cindy and her Team!

Johnny Slaws BBQ & Catering

  • Starts at $750
  • Serves University Place, WA

Johnny Slaws BBQ & Catering provides authentic, slow-smoked barbecue. Whether you want the fun, interactive experience of our food truck, an elegant buffet presentation, or fully plated and served meals, we customize every event to fit your vision. From backyard celebrations to upscale receptions, our team delivers premium BBQ, homemade sides, and memorable hospitality that your guests will be talking about long after the last dance. Food Truck. Buffet. Plated Service. One unforgettable meal. Let Johnny Slaws BBQ & Catering bring the perfect blend of comfort, class, and authentic barbecue to your wedding celebration.

Johnny Slaws BBQ is less of a restaurant and more of a beautifully seasoned crime scene. The brisket was so tender it practically confessed before I even picked up the fork. The pulled pork had clearly been through something traumatic, but whatever happened to it was delicious. Every bite tasted like a pitmaster made a deal with an ancient smoke demon and somehow got the better end of the bargain. The mac and cheese was dangerously creamy, the slaw provided just enough freshness to make me forget I was consuming enough meat to alarm a cardiologist, and the sauce tasted like it had been simmered in a cauldron under a blood moon. I arrived as a normal, functioning member of society. I left covered in barbecue sauce, staring blankly into the distance, wondering how soon it would be socially acceptable to return. Five stars. Tell my family I died doing what I loved.

Six Figure Catering catered our wedding in June 2024. Victoria and the entire staff were amazing throughout the process. They were willing to blend their menu with our specific vision to create exactly what we wanted down to the fine details. The tasting was a lot of fun. Victoria was extremely communicative and helpful from day 1 through the day of the wedding. On the day of, the staff showed up well ahead of time and well prepared to do their jobs. They worked through unexpected rain and (in my opinion) a challengingly large outdoor venue to create something special for us. My wife and I feel like we were lucky to have Six Figure Catering at our wedding. Highly HIGHLY recommend.

Essence of the Thymes really went the distance to make my wife and I's wedding a great experience. They catered (pun intended!) to our needs from the food itself and our dietary needs right down to how the serving ware and other dishes looked. Since we did a book-themed wedding, they decided, without us having to ask, to incorporate their own cookbooks into the overall display which really helped add that extra touch. Communication throughout the process was always clear and pleasant, and the staff at the event were amazing. 11/10 would recommend.

The flavors were bold, fresh, and beautifully presented. The team was professional, attentive, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Our guests are still talking about the food, and we’ll be recommending Amores y Sabores to everyone we know!”
