What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?
Pig Out BBQ was one of three restaurants in the April 4, 2014 episode of You Gotta Eat Here! (Food Network Canada); Rotten Tomatoes' season-three listing for the episode mentions a BBQ pork sandwich. The Toronto restaurant at 650 Spadina Ave. serves pulled pork, beef brisket, ribs, smoked meat, burgers, and sandwiches for pickup or delivery, and its website says it was established in 2012. A Curiocity roundup of Toronto comfort food, dated April 26, 2021, lists the Spadina Avenue restaurant and describes its ribs, wings, and pulled pork. In October 2026 the restaurant's website listed weekly hours (11 a.m. to 9:45 p.m. on weekdays), an Order Now button, gift cards, and a 2026 footer. Neither the restaurant's website nor the Curiocity article mentions the show, and the sources read do not name the dish served in the episode beyond the Rotten Tomatoes description.
