When installing Debian, it asks you for a root password. If you enter one then you will not be added to the sudo group automatically. If you skip entering a root password, you will be added to sudo.
I always enter a root password and then once in the installed OS switch to the root account with
su -
then add my self to sudo with
usermod -aG sudo beirdo-baggins
