Pig Rig BBQ Traded in Truck for Restaurant in Wallingford

If you’ve missed seeing the Pig Rig Roadside BBQ food truck on Route 5, it’s because they recently opened up a new restaurant.

Owner Dan Lanigan told the Meriden Record-Journal that changes in town regulations posed problems for the business and as a result, he decided to sell the truck and open a restaurant.

Lanigan and his partners have settled nicely into their new home at 950 Yale Avenue.

The restaurant is currently open for lunch from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., but the owners promise new expanded days, hours and dinner are right around the corner after the first of the year, according to their Facebook page.

They are also taking orders for New Year’s and Super Bowl Catering.
