If you've ever tried Maryland-style BBQ, chances are you've fallen in love with pit beef. Now, we're lucky enough to be able to find pit beef in Delaware! Charm City's signature BBQ bar has opened a location in Rehoboth Beach, and foodies everywhere now have a reason to celebrate.
The famous Chaps Pit Beef got its start in 1987, just outside of Baltimore. Ever since then, the name has been synonymous with tasty meat!
Pit beef is barbecued beef that's got a good sear on the outside, with a juicy center that's close to rare. After the meat is cooked, it's sliced thin and piled so high that you might have a hard time taking a bite!
Unlike most BBQ sandwiches, the beef of choice at Chaps is top round, rather than brisket. The flavor is unbeatable!
Chaps has an expansive menu that features classic pit beef, turkey, ham, and more. The overstuffed sandwiches are served with a fork and knife — you just might need cutlery to dig in!
Order one of their hot dogs — the Bulldog is pictured below — or sausages from the menu if you're looking for something to shake your tastebuds up.
In fact, the menu at Chap's includes a dozen different sausage options! Some crowd favorites include the Danny Dog, Tom Dog, Jennie Special, the Markie, The Big John, and the Franchise. Which one will you try?
One of their most popular sandwiches only comes around once a year. The Plymouth is a fall special offering pit turkey and ham, with stuffing and a zesty cranberry mayo. Talk about delicious!
Nothing hits the spot quite like a Baltimore-style pit beef sandwich, and Chaps is the legendary home of the best pit beef around. We're lucky to have the chance to enjoy this famous pit beef here in Delaware!
No matter what you order, you'll be heading home with a full belly and a smile on your face.
