Chubby's Barbeque - Emmitsburg

So my wife and I have been passing by Chubbys for 5 or 6 years and never stopped, well we finally did tonight and were sorry for stopping in so close to...

Whenever I land in Maryland my first stop is to see my Bestfriend and eat. Per our usual, I search Yelp for what we're in the mood for and go from there....

Drove here from Frederick today because I had been hearing good things about this place for a few years. Went at 12:30 on a Saturday and there was one other party there when we arrived and one other party that came in while we were there. The food was okay, nothing special but the atmosphere left a lot to be desired. The whole time we were waiting for our food, the owner was sitting at the bar on a desktop computer watching YouTube videos at full volume all of which we could hear clearly as there was no other music playing. It was weird. Wouldn’t go back. Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 1

Whenever I land in Maryland my first stop is to see my Bestfriend and eat. Per our usual, I search Yelp for what we’re in the mood for and go from there. This time I was in the mood for Barbeque and we ended up at Chubby’s! Chubby’s was super easy to find as it's right off the main road. There is ample parking in their private lot which was awesome as I was ready to eat. LoL! Upon walking in I was greeted by Michelle who also ended up being my waitress. Michelle was very pleasant and very engaging. Upon being seated, Michelle went over the menu with my table, answered my this vs. that questions, took our drink orders and allowed us some time to figure out what we wanted. When Michelle arrived back with my Sweet Tea (which was absolutely awesome) she took our orders and told me to make sure I saved space for dessert. As we couldn’t decide on what to choose we ended up with a table of options. Based on what I was able to taste from everyone’s plates, here’s an overview: Bestie: Pork Belly Perfectly done and super flavorful. Besties Wife: Chubby Burger Uniquely crafted burger that is Super Filling and pairs well with the “Any Last Words” sauce. Coleslaw Ahhhhhhhhmaaaaazingggggg Kiddies: Onion Rings Great flavor profile in the batter. Nice sized onion. Served fresh and perfectly golden. Mozzarella Sticks Suler cheesy and good. As far as my meal The first word that comes to mind for me is WOW!!!! Along with good service Chubby’s has good food. My Burnt Ends were meaty, flavorful, perfectly done, and had the authentic smoked barbeque flavor that I was seeking. The fries were hand cut and gooooooood. Crispy on the outside yet soft on the inside. Perfectly salted and a perfect pairing to my Burnt Ends With having the Burnt Ends as my main course I was able to test out the sauces. OmMyGosh! I never knew how much I loved an assortment of barbeque sauces until today. However, though each sauce held its own and I appreciate the variation; I fell in LOVE with the “Private Reserve!” The Private Reserve sauce is a crafted blend that gives you a little bit of each flavor desire. There’s a hint of spice, a dash of sweet, and a smooth undertone of smokiness. Now, if you’re a lover of experimenting like me, make sure to blend the Private Reserve with the Hot Out. Of. This. Worlddddddddddd good. I had the Gooey Vanilla Cake for dessert. It was super moist, flavorful, and the Caramel drizzle really sets it off. It puts you in the mindset of cheesecake meets cake with a flaky texture. Chubby’s was an awesome find and I would recommend it to anyone in the area looking for some good barbeque.
