We always look forward to a stop at Chubby's on our way up to PA from DC. Great stuff!

Having eaten at Chubby's several times, I have to say that they are hit or miss on the quality. I've had their ribs, brisket, pulled pork, and smoked chicken, and sometimes it's like nirvana, and at other times it's over-done and dry. The side items are always excellent, though, and the service is very friendly.

Ate here March 24th 2007, great food and service. A nice roadhouse atmosphere. The baked beans and cole slaw were extra special. Choice of 5 sauces at the table, tried all and loved most. Vinegar and mustard type was the best.

This is a truly wood smoked BBQ shack! Look piles of wood and I'm sure its not for a fireplace.
No chain restaurant, the interior is plain and simple. The ribs were okay, I wasn't a fan of the rub but others in my party really liked it. The pulled pork sandwhich was piled high and you can actually taste the smoke flavoring (no liquid smoke here). Sweet ice tea or a cold beer makes for a good stopping point when headed to Gettysburg.

On my route to visit my daughter. I always look forward to stopping in for a meal. But I have also made the trip just to eat there. Nice friendly folks, great food.

Chubby's rocks! The barbecue is the best in Maryland, and perhaps the world. The appetizers, sides, EVERYTHING is fantastic. A little known secret - they have the best cream of crab soup in the universe.
This is my absolute favorite restaurant and the only thing wrong with it is it's a 40 minute drive from my house. But I go anyway because the food is to die for.

Best Q I've EVER had!

I'm a BBQ nut, Nothing down south comes close to that gem of a Q joint on rt 15. I live in Harrisburg and do Chubbys at least twice a month.

Some of the best BBQ to be had in the mid-atlantic. Their sampler platter rivals every place I've ever been in sheer volume of GREAT food. Plan on sharing with a friend, otherwise plan on getting a "doggie box" of your leftovers and have a second meal.
A great place to stop and eat after skiing @ Liberty or Roundtop.

Chubby's is THE BEST BBQ in the area, and possibly the world. Succulent brisket, smoked for 12 hours and so flavorful it can stand naked before God, without benefit of sauce. Tender, meaty ribs and juicy pulled pork, with so many sides to choose from that a person could get dizzy trying to pick just two.
As a surprise, Chubby's also happens to have the very best crab chowder I've ever eaten in my life. It's so good you'll forget you have a meal coming and order a second bowl.
Several tasty appetizers are on the menu, including my personal favorite, the Jalapeno Caps. These are sliced jalapenos, battered and deep-fried, served with a dipping sauce.
The portions are enormous and dinners come with two sides, which are big enough to each be a meal in themselves.
Chubby's is my all-time favorite restaurant and I can't eat there enough. The only bad news is that they close at 8 because of some liquor license stuff, or some such. So go early and bring your appetite!

Average bbq...and small portion. Nothing to get excited about.

Best BBQ in Frederick County since Mountaindale has changed hands...miss ya Doug. Chubby's is very good though, and is a must stop for me anytime I'm in and around Thurmont/Emmittsburg, in fact it's good enough to drive up there just for a pulled pork sandwich. Next time I want to try the ribs.
