Guy Fieri with Ed Wilson on Pulled Pork Sandwiches

I have to admit I'm not as fond of the recent episodes of Guy's Big Bite as I have been in the past. This newest season features cooks, chefs and owners of restaurants Guy has visited on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. I guess the idea is to run with what works, or that Guy feels (or the network, the fans?) that a 7-minute spot isn't enough to share with the world what these places have to offer. Yet I feel as if I've already seen that food, and I'm looking for something new, innovative and different. Well, since I'm not in charge of the world ... here goes.

Today's episode, July 5, 2009, was called It's Always Finer in Carolina. It repeats on July 21, 2009. (Check the show's index page for future airings.)

Guy Fieri invited guest Ed Wilson from Wilson's Holy Smoked BBQ to the show, to roast a pork shoulder for pulled pork sandwiches with Wilson's Carolina vinegar sauce and slaw. They also made Wilson's mac 'n' cheese.
