We had…read morealready eaten, but sitting next to the smoker, it was inevitable that we were also going to have to get some Q. Ribs were pork and spare, no rub or evident seasoning, cooked over a mix of wood and charcoal. Slight smoke ring, not very deep. Meat was cooked through, there was some chew it (these are not the boiled kind of ribs, but low and slow). Sauce was commercial. We enjoyed these ribs well enough, not the best ever, but pretty decent.

He also made delicious sauces (spicy!). The pork was good but definitely not as good as the beef. The mac and cheese was SO GOOD. It was smoky and crispy on the edges. Overall this was super great and prompt. Shortys showed up and delivered!

The beef was incredibly tender, juicy, and far surpassed what I've had at Canopy Pit Beef in Ellicott City. It's a no-frills setup: cash only, picnic tables only, and no indoor seating, but the quick, friendly service more than makes up for it. I just wish they were closer... though maybe it's better that they're not. Highly recommend.

We have always passed Pioneer Pit Beef during our many travels on Rolling Rd. over the years and…read moredecided to stop by to see if this pit beef was worth the stop. We arrived shortly before closing. Upon entering, the place is really small and the ambiance was filled with a smokey scent and can be a bit claustrophobic when filled to capacity. There is off street parking available on the lot behind the store. There were tables and benches in front of the store to sit and eat your food. NOTE: THIS IS A CASH ONLY BUSINESS. We were greeted by a pleasant man and placed our order behind clear plexiglass: a "super" (extra meat) pit beef, a pit turkey, and an order of fries. They also had pit ham, gravy and you could get the sandwich as a sub. We watched as they prepared the order through the plexiglass, cutting the meat on deli cutting machines and weighing each meat order. We asked if the fries were hot and were told they were "always" hot as we watched them take fries they were previously fried and "double fry" them for crispiness. They had a list of sauces available to add on the sandwich or on the side. We got the "tiger" sauce (horseradish and mayo) and bbq sauces on the side. Our order was ready in no time and the sandwiches: the pit beef sandwich was piled high with thin slices of well cooked although a bit dry (don't know if it was because it was the end of the day and we arrived close to closing), pit beef with a great smokey flavor. I added the bbq sauce (which was sweet and a bit vinegary, which I liked) on the meat and it added the perfect sweet balance to the savory smokiness of the meat. We wanted to try the tiger sauce (combo of mayo and horseradish) but were afraid as it seemed like this sauce was sitting out on the counter and with the mayo, we didn't want an upset stomach. The bun was fresh and I really enjoyed this sandwich. The pit turkey had thin slices (this meat seemed to be similar to the turkey you can get from the deli) on a fresh roll. The meat was not dry and this sandwich was good as well. The fries were best eaten as soon as we got them and they were hot, crispy, and fresh. All in all, we enjoyed our food and would come back again to grab a couple of sandwiches and try the gravy option.

At this stage in life, having a place where I can sit down indoors really matters. If there are other BBQ restaurants with this kind of setup, I'd appreciate recommendations. We tried the pulled pork sandwich and the brisket platter, and both were outstanding. The service was incredibly fast; our meals arrived in less than two minutes, quicker than most fast‑food chains. The restaurant is clean and well‑maintained, though a few sticky areas could use a closer look. The military truck outside the entrance is a nice touch and adds to the atmosphere. My only concern was the staff member responsible for cleaning. He walked around the dining area continuously, circling the tables like a train around a Christmas tree. Passing by every minute made it a bit distracting to enjoy the meal. Once the area is clean, it might be better for him to stay in one place until needed.
