Randy Bryan
Owner
I began my culinary career over 10 years ago catering events for The Southwestern Cattle Raisers Assoc. which lead me to catering other events such as weddings, retirement parties, birthday parties, company employee appreciations. I also custom smoke meats for individuals for their special events such as family reunions, and Thanksgiving, and Christmas. I found a love of food during this journey and it inspired me to graduate with top honors through The Escoffier School of Culinary Arts.

Randy was so incredible and responsive from the time I started communication with him to our wedding day. Whether it be regarding the menu items we decided on, questions about the utensils and linens he has or whether we decided upon glass or plastic for drinkware.
When it came time for our wedding, he was onsite with his staff cooking in the kitchen that was on the property. We even got to taste a couple samples!
Randy was very friendly and patient with us when it came to the details and the food was a hit! I still think about the homemade ranch, salsa and guac!

This catering company is highly recommended. Randy, the proprietor is extremely professional, easy to work with, very accommodating, and highly skilled as a chef,. The food, service, and beverage delivery was top notch. The quality of the food was amazing and maybe the vendor that delivered the best quality at my whole wedding. In both the planning and execution phases of this event, Randy delivered. People are still complimenting the food a month after the wedding, and he was definitely the fairest priced. Thank you Randy and team for making my wedding a wonderful affair

Randy was very professional and personable. At the start of the process he drove to our home so we could try samples. They were enough to feed us a couple days! Plus, a whole jar of his own BBQ sauce. He checked in the Monday before our event to confirm details. He showed up early with his smoker/trailer to finish the food and have it ready for right after our ceremony. We loved the food and so did our guests! We really enjoyed working with him and hope to use him again for future events.

I am so happy that I chose Bryan’s Custom Cooking & Catering. He cooked and catered our daughter’s rehearsal dinner.
And he catered her Wedding for following day.
I was able to meet Bryan and talk to him on several occasions about plans. He and his team took care of everything from cooking, serving meals and even the wedding cake.
Everything was wonderful!

Randy with Bryan’s Custom Cooking was incredibly professional and accommodating. He was so easy to work with and an always willing to help make our event a success. We had several, including the bride, with dietary restrictions and he went above and beyond to accommodate their needs. He was very responsive when I had questions and answered quickly. I would recommend Randy and his team to anyone looking for caterers in the area. AND the food was incredible! We had a pizza bar with home made pizza crust and a variety of pizza toppings, along with breadsticks and salad. The guests raved about the pizza! It was sooo good! Affordable, accommodating, courteous, and delicious!

Randy (Bryan) was amazing! He made the entire process so easy for us, he even came to our home for the tasting. Everything he brought was so delicious! He took all our ideas and was conscientious about our guests with dietary restrictions. It was clear he had the experience to handle any scale and would be prepared for any contingency.
What really stood out to us though in working with Randy was his kindness and his humor. He took everything in stride and was able to create a beautiful and delicious menu within our budget and timeframe.
I would hands down recommend Randy's service for any event and especially for any nearliweds who want a confident, hassle free, trustworthy experience!
Menu (heavy hors d'oeuvres, mostly passed):
Chicken & Brisket Brioche Sliders
Cucumber & Smoked Salmon Bites
Asparagus wrapped in Prosciutto with a lemon drizzle
Fruit Skewers
Charcuterie Boards
Bruschetta
Chips, hot sauce, Guacamole, Queso, Station

Randy was excellent. During planning he gave great suggestions and was very flexible in getting our menu set.
He was so good we added rehearsal dinner as well.
He did a crawfish boil that would make any Cajun proud! Then for our reception he made Chicken Parmesan that would stand up to any Italian Grandma.
I highly recommend Randy!

Bryan's Catering was awesome! They helped us with catering at our corporate event and worked with us on building a specific menu for the day, including breakfast and lunch. People couldn't get enough of the brisket and all the sides. Several folks were going back for seconds, it was that good. Thank you, Bryan!

We knew we had the right man for the job after our first call!
Randy has excellent range and variety.
Each change we came with, he didn’t bat an eye even offering suggestions.
We added rehearsal dinner as well as the wedding meal. Crawfish boil even better than I’ve had on the bayou and then chicken Parmesan that would make any Italian grandmother proud.
If you are thinking of a caterer Randy is the only choice.

We are so happy with the service and food from Randy! Not only is he an amazing cook he is an amazing person. Mother Nature wasn’t in our side and the crazy Texas weather showed it’s crazy, but Randy got it all done and there were many happy people. The poppers were a huge hit and gone before I could get one. ;)
I highly recommend Randy and his staff. You won’t be disappointed at all.

Randy and Bryan's Custom Cooking and Catering far beyond met our expectations. They are so friendly, very communicative throughout the process, and were so easy to work with. The team on the wedding day did way more than I anticipated and as a wedding planner it is so helpful to have the extra hands. I am excited to work with them way more in the future and have put them at the top of my list for catering companies for my future couples. And also an absolute bonus is their food is SO GOOD! Do yourself a favor and definitely get the mashed potatoes! Cannot wait to work with you again Randy! - Jordan & The Della Grace Events Team

I met Randy in 2021, and since that time he has catered 20+ events for my company across Texas. The food he cooks is always top notch and we hear nothing but compliments, and that's only part of what sets Bryan's Custom Cooking & Catering apart from other catering companies.
We've had nothing but positive experiences with Randy and his team. They are always ahead of schedule when it comes to planning, and they listen to our team to work with us for our specific needs for each event. On the day of the event, they're always on time, have a professional work ethic, and are friendly and accommodating to any last-minute needs. On top of that, he's very fair when it comes to pricing.
I've planned enough events to know that working with someone who does what they say they're going to do, is trustworthy and honest, and you can count on - isn't something you find every day. Randy and his team go above and beyond and are a pleasure to work with.

Randy and his crew went over and beyond to make sure the food service was exceptional. We had prime rib, green beans, potatoes, salad, rolls, and drinks. As of a week post wedding, I was still receiving texts from guest commenting how great the food tasted. In a very hectic and stressful time, Randy made the food portion of the wedding the most stress free and smooth part. He and his staff are very professional and courteous. Top notch, great food, highly recommend.

Randy's food was amazing. I had a mix of an Indian wedding and an American Wedding as such we had food from both cultures. The lamb curry he made was so amazing that we ran out of it, even the little kids ate it. I have lots of food allergies and he made sure to make me a tandoori fish that was not only friendly for my tummy but also absolutely delicious. We also had fettucine alfredo & Beef Tenderloin by the end of the night all the food was gone because of how amazing it was. Not only was this the best caterer I had a tasting with but it was also the most reasonably priced. The connections he has with Texas Farmers means you get high quality fresh ingredients. Seriously do not pass him up I spoke with 25 different caterers got quotes from 10 did a tasting with 5 and we held of on our decision till we could do a tasting with Randy and it was the best choice we made for our wedding.
