Brummie dish with added port (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

baltimore

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'port' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'brummie dish with added' is the wordplay.
'brummie dish' becomes 'balti' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'added' becomes 'more' (similar in meaning).
'balti'+'more'='BALTIMORE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for baltimore that I've seen before include "City of north Maryland" , "Large city in Maryland" , "US city" , "City north-east of Washington DC" , "Largest city of Maryland, USA" .)
