Charcoal Style

This place deserves at least 10+ stars!After looking at the local Yelp Collection, I said, "Hey," this 1 is nearby, let's go, and so we did.They have a steady flow of customers, many regulars, and of course passersby who see the cars in the lot. Many parked cars mean good food, and this turned out to be a treat.Go up the steps and see the basic menu clearly posted with prices, order at the screened window. Cash discount, but they do take cards and offer a military discount. The orders are prepared as given, and all is fresh.My husband wanted the 2 sausage sub...10", green peppers, and fried onions. It was slightly spicy-Italian sausage. This was the combo for about $15, which comes with fresh cut fries and a soft drink. They were kind enough to give a free refill of Pepsi products.He loved it and half came home. Oops, they forgot the fries, so I went back, and they made them up.I got the Pit beef, rare, raw onions, and horseradish on the side in a little cup. Huge and delicious. I melted into pit beef lala land.Then the daydream began, we ate at a picnic table out front, devouring the fries and watching the busy world go by. Time paused for us.Condiments, many of them, are available on a high bench opposite the order window. Yes, even malt vinegar for your fries!We will definitely be back.

10/10 I highly recommend. OMG the food is really good. And the portions is insane. Definitely worth every dollar. I am literally getting 2-3 meals from my sandwich. The fresh cut fries are cooked to perfection The staff are friendly and very courteous. Check them out.

I love a good hole-in-the-wall. We were traveling up to PA from Baltimore and needed a quick bite. We happened to be passing through this area and I was craving BBQ and sandwiches. This place is tucked away off the highway right by a go-carting track. The bright yellow tent is a perfect landmark so you don't miss the turn! We ordered the pit turkey sandwich with provolone cheese, the belly buster sandwich, both with fries and drinks. It came out to about $30. I got the pit turkey sandwich and I must say that it has to be one of my favorites by far. They really loaded on the meat and it was perfectly cooked so some of the ends were a bit crispy but it still retained it's juicy flavor. It could've used a little bit of mayo but other than that it was finger-licking gooood. The fries were just OK, a bit oily, but we did like the seasoning on top. I would 1000% return to Charcoal Style for that pit turkey sandwich - my mouth is watering just thinking about it right now. I might skip the fries and the drink next time, but the sandwich alone is worth the drive out of the city!

What a hole in the wall kind of place - it's in the same lot as a go-kart track and you'd completely miss it otherwise. Super tiny menu, but the food's solid. It's slightly cheaper to pay by cash too, so heads up if you got it.The Mega Threat is overkill but of course I got that first. They do slice to order and throw it on the grill so no worries there. Fries are fresh - you get a lot but it was a little salty. I got my sandwich with onions and horseradish, and for some reason all my horseradish was shoved in a singular corner vs the top bread, so every now and then my bite was pure pain LOL.The meats are definitely well seasoned and I like their sausage. Pit beef itself was okay - it's well seasoned but it was tougher than Chap's medium well. This ain't my favorite pit beef bite, but it's significantly closer to my work and will be good in a pinch.

Great pit beef, ham and turkey as always. Can't forget the fries as they are the bomb! Great bunch of employees! Very courteous and accommodating! Great food served by great people at great prices! We have been pit beefing there for years! Highly recommend!

This place has been around a long time and tbh the food varies but this time it was spot on. I got the Bull Dog which is pit beef with sausage. Huge sub , not cheap but legitimately 2 servings. Fries were also huge. Would like if they offered a small fries for a bit less as they are expensive. My combo was pennies under $20 with the "service fee". Service fees are a joke and an insult to customers. Credit card fees have been around forever and all the sudden the vendor needs to add on a fee ? Sorry. If I don't have cash I won't be coming to your establishment

My husband is a huge fan of Baltimore pit beef, and we found this place while I was staying in White Marsh. Completely unassuming and the food was great--nice smoke on the pit beef sandwich and our son got the bacon burger. Very tasty.

Sandwich was solid. Quick service and helpful navigating the menu for this amateur. They are very generous with not only the sandwiches but also the sides. Sides are enough for two. Will be back when in the area.

I love this place. The people here are so friendly and helpful to old guys like me. Their prices are fair and service is top notch. I had the Denny Dog with fries and my wifey had the Triple Threat Sandwich, which she took home half because it was so enormous. We will definitely be regular customers from now on.

So I had never even heard of pit beef before moving to Maryland. In Ohio, we have bull roasts lol. But my introduction to pit beef was, of course, Chaps. Many moons ago. Ever since my first time there, I have had pit beef at many places and nothing compared. But who wants to drive all the way down to the city or up to Aberdeen for great pit beef? Enter Charcoal Style. A friend that lives nearby told me about this place and I decided to give it a shot. This pit beef is spot on. Perfectly cooked, great seasoning, nice charcoal flavor. And not dry at all. My only complaint is the slow service, but aside from that this place is a true gem!
