I was very disappointed with the service from Meat Your Heart. It was not communication to us at any point that they would not be serving a full menu, but when they arrived, the were offering either a Cuban Sandwich or a Cheeseburger (no sides which were included in the price). We had a parking lot full of people waiting to order from them but in less than 1 hour of being here they ran out of the sandwiches and said they would be serving french fries or cheese sticks. At that point almost everyone in the line waiting on food decided to leave. What is the point of going to a food truck if you can even get a meal? All in all it felt like they were very under prepared and were unable to meet the needs of our event.

This was the first time we used the Food truck for a resident event. They arrived early, the food was fresh, and the staff was very friendly. Definitely will use them again.

When to Book

Recommended lead time
15–30 days before your event

The further ahead you book, the more trucks you'll have to choose from. Planning ahead is the best way to secure your top pick.

That said, shorter timelines work too—we book events just days out all the time. You'll just have fewer options to choose from.

Busy seasons: Spring and Fall are our most popular times in Austin, so booking early gives you the best selection.

Venue & Setup Requirements

Usually self-contained
Most trucks bring their own power and water. Confirm any hookups with Meat your Heart when you book.

What is included in the catering price?
Your quote from Meat your Heart includes food preparation, serving supplies (plates, utensils, napkins), the truck's staff, and setup and breakdown. Some trucks charge a travel fee depending on how far the venue is; the truck will let you know if one applies. The per-serving prices on this page already include Food Truck Club's service fee; sales tax is added and the complete total is shown before you confirm.
How far in advance should I book Meat your Heart?
Fifteen to thirty days gives you the best shot at your first-choice date, and shorter timelines work too. Meat your Heart typically answers a request within 7 hours, so you'll know quickly whether the date is open. Food trucks in Austin book up fastest in spring and fall, and events with 100+ guests benefit from a little extra notice for menu planning and staffing.
What types of events does Meat your Heart cater?
Recent bookings through Food Truck Club include a 52-guest catered event in Bee Cave (July 2026) and a 250-guest catered event in Round Rock (May 2026), out of 15 events catered so far. Corporate lunches, employee appreciation days, community festivals, school and university events, and private celebrations around Austin are all bookable from this page.
Where does Meat your Heart serve?
Meat your Heart is based in Austin, TX and takes bookings across Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis and Williamson Counties. Some trucks charge a travel fee depending on how far the venue is, so include the full event address in your request and the truck will let you know if one applies. For a venue outside this area, the truck will confirm whether it can make the trip.
Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or allergy-conscious options?
Meat your Heart lists dairy-free options on its profile. Include a count for each in your booking request so the truck preps enough, and flag any allergies at the same time.
Do I need to provide any utilities (power or water)?
Usually not. Most food trucks arrive with their own generator, water tank, and cooking equipment, so a flat, accessible parking spot of roughly 12 by 25 feet is all they need. Some trailers and dessert carts do run on an outlet, so mention what your venue offers and Meat your Heart will confirm any hookups before the event.
What happens in case of bad weather or cancellation?
Rescheduling is the usual answer when weather turns, and we work with you and the truck to find a date. If the event has to be cancelled, the refund follows the cancellation policy above.
