"Guy Fieri's favorite sandwich - Chaps Pit Beef."

Big 7 Travel

"Chaps Pit Beef serves up some of the best-tasting BBQ in Baltimore."

Dan Myers

"If you go, get the sandwich that started it all: the pit beef."

Lonely Planet

"Park and follow your nose to smoky mouthwatering goodness, and get that beef like a local: shaved onto a kaiser roll with a raw onion slice on top, smothered in 'tiger sauce' (a creamy blend of horseradish and mayonnaise)."

Lonely Planet

"This is the go-to stop for pit beef, Baltimore's take on barbecue - thinly sliced top round grilled over charcoal."

David Landsel

"The Best Barbecue in Every State: Chaps Pit Beef - Make time for go-getter Chaps Pit Beef out on the Pulaski Highway."

Michael W Travels

"I was immediately impressed after one bite. The meat was smoky and rich with a nice, soft texture."

Ted Berg

"Practically every part of this particular sandwich is soft, but it works here: The absence of crunch showcases just how exquisitely prepared and sliced the beef is, with your teeth just sort of sliding right through it while your taste buds go to town. A sandwich is so good you start thinking up reasons to be in Baltimore so you can eat it again."

Bruce Watson

"Pit beef is made with fairly tough cuts of meat, but Chaps softens the bite by slicing its roasts extremely thin, yielding a finished product that is pillow smooth, yet retaining the firm character and flavor of top round. The seared, crusty edges of the beef carry a sharp note of charcoal and spice, while the fluffy Kaiser roll holds everything together. A pile of onions, a smear of house-made horseradish and mayo “tiger sauce,” and we were on our way to pit beef heaven."

Bethany Quinn

"For someone who wants barbecue that will make you never want to leave, and then come back as soon as you can, go to Chaps Pit Beef and find out what it takes to be an award-winning smokehouse."
