Chaps Pit Beef

The new location across the parking lot is nice and clean just waiting for the decorations. Food is phenomenal the majority of the time. The only issue I have is that the fries are not always salted which is a hit or miss but when it's a miss its not as tasty. Of all the food the Double D and the turkey version are my go to. But the rest of the menu is just as delicious. I always enjoy the people that work there.

Great place and service even when crowded. Returned a few yrs later. Theyre in a bigger bldg but the food is still great. I order wings, pit beef sandwich, banana pudding and mac salad. The price for the mac salad size is disappointing but all the food was good. It's pricey but your taste buds sill love it.

So to be fair, this isn't BBQ. It's "Pit Beef". BBQ is low and slow. Pit Beef is basically grilling meat. Hence why the meat isn't fall off the bone. But nonetheless tasty. ⚠️ The regular sized Mac and cheese is an excuse to go buy $9 worth of lottery tickets. It's so basic as to bring into question if it originated from a blue and yellow box. Otherwise, excellent selection of sauces. Great charing on the ribs and the chicken. For Baltimore this is 5 star "BBQ". For a native Texan this is really good grilled meats, bathed in tasty sauces.

I've only been here twice. It's a little bit of a drive and I don't like driving in the city. This is a good thing, cause otherwise I would be here every week. I had the Plymouth, burnt ends, minced barbecue and banana pudding. ALL was delicious and worth every calorie. What impressed me was that turkey was the same as you would find on your plate on Thanksgiving day, but with that barbecued flavor. I've been to 2 other pit places. Their idea of turkey is a couple of slices of lunch meat slapped on a bun. Yuck.

I've been coming to Chaps for years, and it's safe to say that pit beef doesn't get much better than this. The pit beef sandwich grew up on Route 40, so it only makes sense that one of the first pit beef vendors in Baltimore originated in the same industrial corridor. The sandwich I had this go-around was served at medium temperature with a soft Kaiser roll. The meat was very flavorful without a piece of fat to be found. Make sure to get an order of French Fries, as these are some of the best around. The condiment bar is also self-serve, so you don't have to worry about going back to the counter to harass the staff for more mayo or onions. I also found everyone on staff to be friendly and courteous. Really impressed with the quality of Chaps and as always, I will be back.
