“We Grill While You Chill.” That is their motto. The Charcoal Deli made its debut, here at the Delaware Beaches, last year.
They are located at 20200 Coastal Highway, in Rehoboth Beach, (Rt. 1 South just past Jungle Jim’s) Tel. is 302-260-9615. E-mail is charcoaldeli@comcast.net. The owners are Wendy Adams and Tracy Winstead.
Months ago, I was walking my dog, Addy, in my neighborhood and you know how it is when you have a dog, we all walk at the same time; morning and evening. One of my neighbors mentioned that they have been getting delivery from The Charcoal Deli and how their impossing dog is at the door the moment she smells the barbecue. She told me where they were located, etc. etc. Word of mouth is really one of the best advertisements for any establishment; more so if it has to do with food.
This is the perfect time to talk about The Charcoal Deli because we are about to enter one of the best seasons here at the beaches. It is that season when we have that laissez faire attitude about everything.
In my case people drop by; I never know what I want to eat, I don’t even know at what time I want to eat. It is so light out. No schedule; it’s what I love.
Cooking outdoors, it is to me, the greatest. And, charcoal is what I prefer.
You cannot fake good barbecue; you have to cook it with love and nurture it. It should not be drowned in the sauce. Barbecue sauce should only enhance the flavor of the meat; a condiment, really. It is best served on the side.
Wendy and Tracy told me that they cook everything in-house, except the hot dogs. All their meats are slow cooked over a charcoal grill, therefore, producing a great flavor.
Since their opening last year they are now having a good following. There is plenty of parking available and if the weather is good, you can sit out on their front deck.
If you would like to see their menu, please visit www.rehoboth.com/charcoaldeli. They have Sandwiches and Wraps, Char-Burgers/Hot Dogs, Baby Back Ribs served wet or dry, Chicken, Dinners to Go, Platters, Sides like onion rings, fries, chili cheese fries, gravy fries, cole slaw, macaroni salad, potato salad and their deviled eggs are very popular.
Please note that Sno-Balls will be available from June through September and since these are Baltimore ladies I am sure they will be putting that Marshmallow topping on the Sno-Balls that is indigenous only to Baltimore.
Note: The Charcoal Deli has gift certificates available for purchase.
Talk to you later….
