What the source shows: The Clintonville location's own website, checked 2026-09-08, shows current hours, working online ordering, 2026 copyright, and an explicit 'still serving' statement; an automated closure-phrase flag on the page was a false positive from a navigation-menu fragment.

What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives visited Ray Ray's Hog Pit in the 'College-Town Champs' episode (aired 2017-11-17), where Guy Fieri tried the Mangalitsa Brat Burger and St. Louis spare ribs, smoked using owner James Anderson's traditional process. Ray Ray's Hog Pit began as a barbecue food truck before opening brick-and-mortar restaurants, according to the restaurant's website. A website check of the Clintonville location on 2026-09-08 found current hours, a working online ordering system, and copyright dated 2026, along with text stating the shop is 'still serving Clintonville after all these years.' The same check found four active central-Ohio locations listed — Clintonville, Franklinton, Westerville, and Granville — indicating the business has expanded well beyond the single truck originally featured on the show.
