This Baltimore BBQ Sandwich Will Fix You | Cooking The States (Maryland)

“Pit Beef” sounds like the name of the villain from an 80’s kick-boxing movie, but it’s actually the name of a really dank sandwich from Baltimore, Maryland. Baltimore is home to one of the more unique styles of BBQ, one that’s just about as bare bones as it gets... no Post Oak, no Hickory, just good ol’ lump charcoal, open pits and controlled heat.
In Baltimore BBQ is different. Here you won’t find racks of ribs basted in sauce or perfectly trimmed briskets smoked to perfection, no no. In Baltimore Bottom Round is king, specifically the bottom round “flat” as it’s called. The flats are lightly trimmed before getting a treatment of direct heat until evenly charred. The fat cap is then removed as the meat comes to a rare temperature (110-115F, 43-46c) then the bare side is charred again. Be sure to slice across the grain of the muscle to help manually tenderize this thing. I like it rare, but feel free to throw it back on the grill to take it to a higher temp and/or give it some extra smoke flavor.
I was fortunate enough to travel to Baltimore this summer to try a pit beef sandwich from Chap’s BBQ outside the city. This recipe is directly inspired by that experience. Let me know if you have any questions and I hope you dig! 🤘🏼 Adam

Being from here, live about 10 min from chaps, and also a culinary guy myself. Great job man. I’ve seen a lot of people around here who can’t do pit beef like chaps, but this has potential. Keep up the good work.

Love there pit beef, being in NC for many years have gotten me homesick for blue crabs and pit beef. You should also try the soft shell sandwich, haven't had one in years. Try a little sour cream in the tiger sauce, really helps with flavor, and a little fresh sage is nice to.

@@AdamWittNo problem man, I go to school down in Rhode Island they’ve got some excellent signature dishes that you should check out. “Clear Clam chowder,”better than both Boston or New York style chowder imo; “New York System hot weiners,” they changed the way I thought about hot dogs on god. And “Dough boys” which is just slightly undercooked fried dough but trust me it’s a game changer.

Massachuetts at last, the state I grew up in and lived in my enture life...until six months ago, when I moved to Noo Yawk. Seeing how you've already made Maine lobstah rolls, that means it's likely you'll be doing my all-time favorite Bah-ston dish: BOSTON BAKED BEANS. In that case, may I offer only one suggestion: when you soak your beans before cooking, use a salt water brine. Seriously, a salt water brine does a great job softening the beans.

@BreakingBatman187 11 ай бұрын

They drain all the blood when the animal is slaughtered and any residue is removed during butchering. The red liquid is water and a meat protein called myoglobin. You simply see more of it in rare meats because less of the water is cooked off. It doesn't taste bad, but it can make the bun a bit soggy.
