Inspiring Conversations with Alvin Johnson Jr & 3rd of JohnsonBoyzCookin LLC

Today we’d like to introduce you to Alvin Johnson Jr & 3rd.

Alvin, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
We are a father-and-son-owned business that started back in 2020. We’ve always had a deep love for food and a passion for serving our community. What began as selling plates from our home quickly evolved into a full-fledged catering business. Over time, we’ve had the honor of serving comedians, artists, as well as NBA and NFL players. Our main goal has always been to deliver not just incredible food, but quality service as well.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It’s definitely come with its share of trials and tribulations. As entrepreneurs, we understand that many lessons are learned through trial and error. During slower months, we’ve had to come together, collaborate, and find new and creative ways to market ourselves. Those challenging moments have helped us grow and become more resilient as business owners.

Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about JohnsonBoyzCookin LLC ?
We are a family-run business, owned by my father Alvin Johnson Jr. and myself, Alvin Johnson III. We’ve always shared a love for cooking, but it wasn’t until 2020 that we decided to turn that passion into a business. Originally from Arkansas, we specialize in Southern cuisine using recipes that have been passed down through generations. Our goal is to create meals that bring back memories—food that reminds you of what your grandmother used to cook or brings a sense of nostalgia for your favorite dishes growing up.
What sets us apart is not just the flavor and creativity in our food, but the bond we bring as a father-and-son team. We believe that love and family are ingredients you can taste in every bite. We cater weddings, parties, corporate events, and much more. We take pride in creating memorable experiences through food and hospitality.

What sort of changes are you expecting over the next 5-10 years?
In the next 5 to 10 years, we envision JohnsonBoyzCookin becoming a household name. We plan to keep expanding our reach, growing our brand, and continuing to network and collaborate within our community. No matter how large we grow, our mission will remain the same: to spread love through food.
