Abrams BBQ

A hidden gem and when I say hidden I am talking about in the cut. For those of you that do not understand what in the cut means I will explain it. It is in a small strip area near a taxi cab place that is behind a few other businesses. Your GPS will not steer you wrong but you have to keep a lookout for it. But once you find it you will not be disappointed and I am so ready to go back.
Peach bbq baked beans! Where has this been all my life? I went there after finding it on Unilocal and the reviews did not steer me wrong. I went with a half rack and chose greens and the previously mentioned beans. It is so nice to get greens with some hocks in it for once in this area. I chose to get the Abrams bbq sauce on the side and it was sweet with a little kick. I hate fall off the bone ribs. These ribs were cooked the right way. What I mean by that is when I pick up the bone meat was attached to it instead of it falling off. I bit into and just the piece I bit tore away instead of pulling the bone away because the meat was too tough. Even though it was half a rack of ribs this had to be the biggest half rack I have ever seen. The portions were huge and filling.
If you want you can purchase some of Abrams bbq sauce. He is a pretty cool guy as he was in there overseeing his operation and he was even helping people cook. To me this shows that he wants his product to meet his standards and ensure all is done right.

Second time eating here. I got a pulled pork sandwich with peach beans and a fried Mac and cheese ball. Honestly it was incredibly good. The sauce is epic. Beans were consistently good as the last time was here. The Mac and cheese ball was crispy on the outside and cheese on the inside. Very very good. Henri does it right.

I went inside to be greated by what i assume was the owner. First look i was a bit hesitant, but once i looked around i could tell this place had charm. The smell of bbq surrounded the place. The owner and service was amazing. When i got home and eat the ribs i ordered i was in heaven. The peach beans were amazing and coleslaw was very fresh. My girlfriend enjoyed her brisket as well. Definitely going to make a repeat visit.

I ran across this place over the summer and quickly found a new favorite. The food is fantastic! We had the barbecue ribs greens, and macaroni and cheese. We were not disappointment and we left feeling super full. Management at this establishment is 100% customer service oriented. The owner allowed us the pleasure of his company during our meal making our first time, very memorable and hilarious. I recommend this spot to anyone who loves good soul food and some good finger lickin BBQ.

Amazing!
Forgive the hyperbole, but these were some of the best ribs I’ve had. Ever. The ribs were flavorful with a just-​kissed by the grill taste. You could tell that they were fresh made that day with expert care that comes from years of smoking and grilling meats. I definitely will be returning!

My husband and I are always looking for different places to eat on Unilocal,and we happened to drive by this place today on our way to another restaurant for lunch. We figured we’d stop and give this place a try instead, and I’m glad we did.
The place is super small, with two 2-​top tables to sit at if you want to dine in, but we expected that, and planned to get carry-​out instead. The place looked pretty clean and so did what I could see of the kitchen.
The menu is pretty simple to navigate, and is posted behind the register and on the counter. We ordered the beef brisket dinner, pulled pork sandwich dinner, and a side of chicken livers. We had the collard greens, fries, peach bbq beans, and fried corn as sides.
The amount of food we got for the price was pretty impressive. I was expecting the side of chicken livers to be just that, a side, maybe 5 – 7. Nope, it was an entire to-​go box filled with deliciously fried chicken livers. We couldn’t finish everything we ordered.
My brisket was amazing; tender, juicy, and the edges were perfectly charred. Everything else was wonderful as well, even the collards (and I am very picky about collards).
We’re from South Carolina and since moving to the area 5 years ago, we haven’t been able to find a place with good BBQ/​comfort food. Just walking into this place made me feel like we were back home. We will definitely be back to try their other choices.

I was getting my car serviced at the Nissan across the street and was super hungry. Although Burger King was recommended to me, I didn’t feel like fast food. I did a quick Unilocal search and found out that this BBQ place was nearby, it had a 4 star rating, so I decided to try it out. Definitely a good call. I got the BBQ Brisket sandwich with Mac & Cheese, peach beans, a side of corn bread and the peach cobbler for dessert. Everything was very good, I would highly recommend it. The owner was there, too, Stretch, and he clearly takes pride in his product. It’s a tiny hole in the wall, so it is easy to miss, but definitely worth the venture.

I got a Amazon Local for this place after suggestions from my family to try it on day. I will admit that my husband was the one who went to the restaurant and picked up the food. We got a lot of food for the amount of the coupon which was valued at $ 25. The items that I got was the peach baked beans, macaroni and cheese, and corn bread. All was pleasantly good especially the peach baked beans. I liked the macaroni and cheese but it seemed a bit greasy for me… might have been the grease from the cheese. My husband said that the owner was really nice and it was busy in the restaurant. He was assuming others were cashing in their coupon as well! Overall, I would order food from there again and I liked the taste of the food for the prices they had listed on the menu. The menu was short and simple too! That’s my preference for a menu.

Best brisket SANDWHICH I’ve ever had… I put coleslaw on mine!!! Haven’t tried anything else but find myself coming here often for lunch

Food was excellent. Staff was supportive and helped describe all their food and where it came from. Veggies are grown in the family garden and the sweet potato pie potatoes are also sourced from the garden. We actually ate at the Abram’s two small tables. This is not a luxury place, but who goes to BBQ looking for a fancy dinning room anyhow. Mr. Abram (owner) kept the family friendly jokes going the entire time we were there. The location was pretty hard to find. Don’t use Apple Maps to get there as you will get lost. Use Google Maps and type in «Claus Liquour» — Abrams is right behind there.
Enjoy!

I would never have found this hidden gem without Unilocal.I was nearby getting my car’s sunroof adjusted, it was lunchtime, so I pulled up Nearby Restaurants. 400 feet? 4+ stars? Asked the guy who had just finished the work, and he said they were pretty good. Gotta try it!
The address is Crain Highway, which seems like the service road for the main drag RItchie Highway — I saw a lot of interesting small businesses as I headed home later — but it’s in the second layer of the shopping center behind a liquor store. The shop is a narrow hole in the wall with exactly two tables.
I asked what was good today and was told the brisket had just come out of the.cooker. So I got that, with the signature peach beans and the greens named after the owner’s mother in law.
I usually need to season greens, but not these. The sweetness of the peaches worked well with the beans. The brisket was lean, nice chew and a healthy hint of smoke. The house made BBQ sauce did not fit any of the usual niches — it was neither as thin or hot as Carolina nor as thick and sweet as Memphis, just a little sweet, just a little heat, just so darned good I got a little more and ate it with a spoon!
Not my usual stomping ground, but I will definitely think about a stop if in the neighborhood.

I have been to Abram’s BBQ on several occasions and let me tell you it is «off the chain»!
I love the wings as an appetizer with a side of ribs along with any of the vegetables. The «creekwater» (half tea /​half lemonade) is a great way to wash it down.
Even though he is a Redskins fan, Henri is a great cook and very engaging when you come to his restaurant so I won’t hold that against him. I highly reccomend it if you’re in the area and HUNGRY go to Abram’s!

3.5 stars. I have been wanting to come here forever. I am always on the hunt for delicious BBQ. The other day I found myself in Glen Burnie and had about an hour to waste before an appointment. I thought to myself, «Self…you know you wanna eat… but what?» Then I remembered Abrams was in Glen Burnie. That was all she wrote. I GPS’d the addy and off I went. The BBQ joint is set in a strip mall behind another building and is not visible from the road. There is a sign/​flag by the entrance, so keep a look out for that. I walked in a was kind of greeted by a woman sitting at the register. By kind of, I mean that she said hello, but only after she turned down the Latifah show that was BLARING when I opened the front door. I got a very unwelcoming vibe from her so I quickly made a decision and ordered the brisket with a side of their famous peach baked beans and mac and cheese. Before going to the back to get my order, the woman cranked the volume of the TV back up to sonic boom level and walked away I then stood around (ears hurting), took some photos of the place, and waited for about 10 minutes for my food to be prepared. The unfriendly woman was the only person working there and she took her time getting my order together. Things to note: there are only 2, two-​person tables in the restaurant. Don’t come here with 8 co-​workers and expect to sit down. This is a grab-​n-​go kind of place. The BBQ sauce they use is for sale. I totally forgot to check the price (sorry). I finally got my food and hauled out of there without any further dialogue between myself and Mrs. Grumpy pants. I then made it to my appointment destination and said «screw it… I’m eating in the car.» Lemme tell you, the food was GOOD. Mac n cheese was traditional southern style– the kind that is cut into pieces and taken out of the pan with a spatula… you know, it looks like a slice of cake made of macaroni with cheese in it. In my opinion, creamy mac and cheese is gross. Southern mac n cheese is where it’s at and Abrams doesn’t disappoint. Their baked beans were also absolutely delicious. I didn’t get a whole lot of the peach «essence», but they were different than any other baked beans I have ever tried. Check em out! Finally, the brisket. I ordered the brisket plate and what I received was a sandwich (weird, but whatever). The brisket was sliced super thin and if I had to describe it I would call it «beef bacon». It had crispy edges and a moist center and was just delicious. I really liked their BBQ sauce too.
I am hoping that maybe I came during an off day and that was why I didn’t feel welcome in the place. I will definitely return because the food was awesome, but need to warm you that you may not be treated as a valued customer. Hopefully someone will read my review and take note. This place is definitely worth a 4 star rating if they improve their customer service.

Food is AMAZING and I am a picky eater. Fish and half chicken are in my favorites but can’t go wrong with any selection. Sides include peach beans, mac and cheese, greens, etc.
Highly recommend this place

Service — great. Food — tasty. Location — Like a ninja’s destination. Online — needs updating (menu prices online differ from the one posted inside). Offered a southern style creek water that was dancing on my palate. Even sampled a smoked chicken salad with cranberries that would be great for a lunchtime treat. Will come back and try another meal now that I know they do exist.

Got a half rack of ribs and some chicken. The chicken was good but I wasn’t a fan of how much ribs cost compared to the size of the rack. I would go back for the chicken but I wouldn’t go out of my way to bring someone here for BBQ.

Today was the first time my family and I ever heard of Abrams BBQ. We decided to have it for dinner. So very glad we did! My husband had the ribs, Mac & cheese, the beans, and cornbread. My nephew had the pulled pork, mac & cheese, collard greens, and I had the fried tilapia, mac & cheese, and the collard greens. We were stuffed and very satisfied.
If you’re looking for real down home cooking. I recommend Abrams BBQ. You’ll find the restaurant located in the Crain Business Center. It’s tucked away, so be patient and you’ll find it well worth the drive.

This was my first time trying this place and the food was marvelous! I ordered the half slab of ribs and half chicken for me and my wife. We only planned to eat a little bit and save it for later but could not put the forks down. I was a little skeptical ordering the beans but they were so much better than I expected. I will definitely be going back here again and again and again.

Great Food had The Slab And it was cooked To Perfection!
And the collard Greens and The Mac and Cheese was very tasty.
Plus His Mom Is a Sweetheart and When she told us you will come back she is more than Right!!!
We Will.

1^st time here: I get a craving I look only for the best. Normally go somewhere else but I’m on a budget right now so this place is close came to mind. I normally go to the el salvadorian place across from Abrams. I ordered ½ rib dinner w/​beans & fries. This place is ok for my craving but not anything to rave about. Not much meat on my ribs and basic BBQ taste not much flavor. Everyone’s palate is diff so try it & see. Called in my order @12 & she said it’ll be done 12:30. I was there at 12:25 and paid $ 12.00 for the dinner. Good for the price but not worth coming back. On a hot day like this June 29^th I’ll put the grill on for dinner
