The restaurant’s actual recipe is their secret, but watching the episode gives you a pretty good sense of how to approach this at home.
The bread: This matters more than people think. Toast it, butter it, give it some attention.

The layers: Build strategically. Wet stuff on bread, not on meat. Think about texture in every bite.
The ratio: Balance is everything. No single ingredient should overpower the rest.
Will your version be exactly the same? Probably not. But that’s okay — the goal is getting in the ballpark, not a perfect replica.
The Signature Dish
The a Massive Sausage Sandwich is the obvious move here — it’s what caught Guy’s attention and it’s clearly what the kitchen does best. That said, most places that end up on Triple D have more than one standout. Don’t be afraid to ask what else is popular.
The regulars usually know what’s good. If you see the same dish going out to multiple tables, that’s probably a sign.
Where to Find It
You’ll find Big Pinks BBQ in Bridgewater Township, New Jersey. Like most places that appear on the show, they’ve seen increased traffic since the episode aired. Call ahead if you’re making a special trip.
