Today I took my daughter and her friend along with my neighbor here for lunch. We all felt the food was decent, but the overall experience not so much. I asked for a ginger ale which they sell bottled. I asked for a cup of ice as it was a pretty hot day and the only place to sit is outside. I was told a cup of ice is $2.00. Disturbing. They only offer outdoor picnic table seating with no overhead covering, however; we were to hungry to seek another dining experience.

When I requested a paper receipt I was told they only email receipts which means you must provide an email. I didn't want all that for some food but I had no choice as that's they only way I thought I could review my bill. I get home and find you only receive a receipt for the total. Itemization is NOT provided. WTH? I cannot recommend.

We moved to South Carolina and have yet to find BBQ like Randy's. I had to do the next best thing. I ordered some BBQ sauce and Randy was kind enough to send it to me. If you want very good food go to Randy's. You will not be disappointed.

Friendly staff is the only reason I am giving it two stars. Food is extremely bland. Between my wife and I we had pull pork, ribs, baked beans, macaroni salad, collard greens, and potato salad. The greens and ribs were garbage and the rest was a "sold at an Indian gas station quality" at best. I'm from Georgia so I know how to make great bbq and have had tons of great bbq growing up.

I have pretty high expectations of myself making Bbq so I rarely go out to restaurant's for bbq, steaks or ribs and when I do I have low expectations to be "wowed" Unfortunately Randy's just pissed me off I feel cheated I paid 49$ for absolute garbage. do better it's not that hard to make good flavored bbq and for god sakes clean up your grills and cooking area it is absolutely filthy!

Honestly for the price I'm not impressed with the quality of the food. The BBQ tasted store bought, and the shrimp was ridiculously hard. Only saving grace was the macaroni and that wasn't great. I'm from NC and I heard people comparing their BBQ to ours so I gave it an honest try, and I can definitely say I won't be back. This is definitely northerners take on Southern comfort food. Also, may I recommend adding seasoning to your food. It won't hurt you I promise.

Thought we would have a great Barbecue Dinner of ribs and chicken! ($56) Got home and added our own sides. The ribs were totally cold, not seasoned and smelled like rotten meat! The chicken was so old, it had hardened on the edges and could be shredded like strings. It was so bad, we dumped the whole order in the trash! My husband called and spoke with the manager who claimed he has never gotten a complaint (although one was posted a week ago) offered to give us a platter!

We declined! We had been there during the beginning of pandemic and the food was great! Must be under new management and have new "cooks" or don't care what the serve! Pray for Randy's!

Got the double cheeseburger. Very well seasoned and cooked just right. The pic below doesn't look good as I dove right in before snapping a picture of it. I would say that it edges out Five Guys.

Randy is an amazing man. His food is his outstanding and his community support is even better. During the pandemic he helped feed hospital workers and others Endlessly. He always prepares large larger portions than what you're expecting. He does not skimp on his catering at all.

Been wanting to try this place. Fries were good and hot. NC pork was decent but the minced beef was nasty. Fatty and grizzly. I could not eat it. Bf said ribs were OK, but the heat and eat ones from Costco were better. Might give them one more shot but NEVER getting minced beef again.

Absolutely the most delicious sliced beef sandwich I have ever had. No sauce or anything. Just meat and the roll. The flavor, texture, and moistness were PERFECT!I stumbled across this place by accident but I will be going out of my way to go back. Amazing!

Stop what you are doing and come here for BBQ. fries were hot and just-right crispy. The small size is more than plenty. The drinks are cold. Service was very good and and quick. Ok, now to the BBQ: It's the best in 100 miles. The smoke is AWESOME on this beef. Portions excellent - bigger than the bun. The slice is thin enough to have the right texture but not shaved. Judging by the parking lot and the customers here at 1pm, This seems to be a favorite of the contractors and trades in the area. That's another good sign. I drove 80 miles to get to this area and am thankful I stopped here for lunch - I may need to make a return trip soon - just for this sandwich.

It was ok. Nothing to rave about. The sliced pork sandwich and fries were good but I wouldn't order the onion rings or coleslaw again. The onion rings were overcooked, salty and little on onion. And coleslaw. NO!

This place was really good! The greens and brisket macaroni and cheese we're delicious. Only thing is I spent all this money and they forgot my macaroni salad

12/31/21 (4.5 overall) 5 stars for the AMAZING: -mild sauce - Hands down, the BEST bbq sauce I have ever had. -sliced pork - Hands down, the BEST sliced pork I have ever had. -baked beans - Hands down, the BEST beans I have ever had. -"skin" of the chicken - Chicken itself was ok, but the skin was wonderfully seasoned. 3.5 stars -BBQ Ribs - Not bad, but I like a bit more fat on it so that it's moist. 3 stars -coleslaw - It was bland. My friend said it may have been an off night because it's normally good. I wouldn't get it again based on what I had today.

My coworker and I ordered lunch from here today and the pullpork was excellent and Mac and cheese was delicious as well. It's bit on a high side of price but imo, it's worth a try. $35 for 2 sandwiches, 2 small sides and 2 soda. I just wish the portions were little larger.

First time trying this place and food was great overall. Pulled pork and fried catfish were really good, coleslaw and potatoes salad were delicious. Beans tasted really good but too thin (I like mine thick) and the Mac and cheese was ok.

Randy's catered our daughter's graduation party and everything turned out perfect! The food was absolutely delicious and we had a ton of left overs for the next day. We highly recommend Randy's for catering or just stopping by for some fast BBQ!

Randy catered a party for us and it was hands down the best catering experience I've ever had! All the food was homemade and delicious. He was easy to communicate with and went above and beyond to meet all my concerns and preferences including setting up appetizers at one time and dinner at another. He hit it out the park! He even added in foods we didn't ask for as a bonus! People raved about the food! Thanks for making our party so special, Randy! You are the best!

The best Barbecue in Southern MD! My favorite is the Barbeque chicken sandwich. The wait is never long and it is right off of the highway. Never had a bad meal from here.

I always stop at Randy's on my way back from St. Mary's County and I love their pulled pork barbecue sandwich I think it's delicious the coleslaw 's good the buns good it's seasoned perfectly and it's just an excellent sandwich. I live 40 miles away from Randy's and sometimes I think I should just drive there to get lunch. The staff is very nice and after you order it I'll bring your food out to your car for you which I think is great I highly recommend this place's

So, I've had Randy's a few times and they have been consist. I usually like to eat somewhere a few times before I give true review. Randy's isn't too far from my home, so its the perfect go to for my family when we're to lazy to cook.

Sorry Yelp family! I have had Randy's a couple of times and failed to review them. Forgive me? I hope so. Let's get to it, their food is off the hook! The hubby and I don't live close, but he golfs nearby sometimes, so we like to indulge when that occurs. I had an itch this past weekend (on 12/13/2020) and my honey and Randy's came through with the scratch. Now, since this is a treat, the hubby and I order like a family of five.

We got a full slab of ribs, pulled pork sandwich, catfish sandwich and five sides (some came with what we ordered). I'll say it loud and say it proud - WE LIKE TO EAT! All of the food is delicious. The ribs are so tender and meaty and especially flavorful when dipped in their barbecue sauce. The catfish sandwich (our first time trying it) was seasoned to perfection.

The Mac and cheese is good, but it's processed and not the best, but still good. I HIGHLY recommend this spot. Whose the pit master at this joint? Hello, and can I touch your angelic hands?! One star lost for the time the hubby and I preordered, arrived and had to wait 45 more minutes for our order. However, the food is so good, I still threw out four stars.

Excellent! Roasted chicken, pulled pork - the potato salad can't be beat and green beans are all great! Catering too!

OK, I usually know better than to get something OTHER than what the place specializes in but I had an early morning appointment and with fast food options around to grab a sandwich, I stopped at Randy's since I saw someone in line. As it turns out, they have breakfast sandwiches (all day!). I got the bacon, egg and cheese on texas toast with mayo.

Oh my was it GOOD! It was chock full of bacon - which was a bit hard to eat actually because it got all curly and hard but tasted damn good with a hard fried egg, american cheese and toasty texas toast. Super friendly staff and really good sandwich. You can bet I'll be back to try the BBQ.

Great bbq. Some of the best in MD for sure. Ribs and pork was fantastic. Mac and cheese was a little velveeta-Esque for my taste, but overall solid. Even though we asked they did not put cutlery in bag which posed challenges to eating the Mac and cheese, but we made do. My advice is to double check that they give you everything in your order but it's worth the stop if you're nearby.

The Carolina pork BBQ was seasoned really well. We were pleased with the quantity as well, we couldn't finish it all. We also had the beef brisket, which was tender and delicious. We tried the brisket with both of Randy's sauces, the mild and the hot and sweet. The sauces were very good. We loved the collard greens and coleslaw too. We were down in Southern Maryland for the and thought about going back for dinner. It really was that good. The sweet tea was excellent. We can't wait to go band eat there again.

Ehhh, the legacy of Randy's BBQ is dead. Crappy quality food, crappy service, crappy pricing, and after all those years it's still a matter of standing next to a busy highway. In case that isnt tacky enough, you can check out their 20 year old car for sale in the front parking space. Dude, what happened? This place used to be the best BBQ around.

Now its young people that are ridiculously rude. Took 4 attempts to get the order right. They request a tip when paying after placing the order. thank goodness I'm not a sucker who fell for that. But just in case you miss it they like to utilize an old raggity tin tip can next to the window. Steer clear. you've been warned. Trust me, I wanted to love this place too.

I give it 3 1/2 stars but there's no 1/2 star option. I've had their ribs a couple times to see if I had one bad time, but they are just too chewy and are too charred on the outside. Last time I went they offered new baby back ribs which were mostly tender except for the end pieces which were almost charred and chewy. For this new item they offer a peach bbq sauce, but it is more like peach jam and is quite sweet.

The pulled pork sandwich is big and comes with coleslaw on top. Not too bad in taste. I do like they offer a mild and spicy bbq sauce to go on it. The fries have huge portions so careful when you order these. The beans are ok. The slaw they make is almost perfect, should be more crunchy and less watery. The cheesesticks are so so and the jalapeno poppers could be better. Won't order these again. If they keep the baby back ribs, I'll keep coming for these. Otherwise it'll just be pork sandwiches for me.
