You know you're at a real BBQ joint when you arrive and see and smell the wood out back! Andy Nelson's BBQ is AWESOME. It's one of the better BBQ joints I've ever eaten at.
I ordered a meal for lunch - chopped turkey sandwich with two sides (mac & cheese, beans) along with a 1/4 lb. of brisket. The turkey was good but my only gripe about the sandwich was that the turkey was smothered in BBQ sauce. I wish it was served dry, allowing one to put any kind of sauce and any amount of sauce desired onto the sandwich.
The brisket is sliced very thin and I actually liked it. I usually slice my brisket thicker but I have no complaints! It was juicy and tender and had a nice smoke ring.
The Mac was pretty good. Not 100% sure if it was "homemade," but it certainly looked like it was. The pit beans were also good. They had a bit of a bite to them. Not much heat, so don't be too scared. But definitely a kick at the end.
The restaurant itself has a lot of charm to it. Pictures of hogs and other BBQ-related things are everywhere. Great atmosphere for a BBQ restaurant especially one in rural MD. I love it.
