In 1988, founding partner Mike Fernandez hooked up with Moses Day in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and began learning to fire roast meats. When Moe fired up his backyard barrel pit, everyone in T-Town knew where to go. Mike and his partners, Ben Gilbert and Jeff Kennedy, were lucky to learn from Moses and his distinct style makes up Moe’s original flavor of BBQ. Moe’s serves up an all things Southern Soul Food Revival with not only award-winning, fresh from the pit BBQ but down home sides and desserts made fresh daily from recipes passed down for generations. From a junkyard pit in Vail, Colorado to 18 locations in Alabama, Colorado, Georgia and North Carolina, Moe’s Original BBQ has mastered the art of opening successful fast casual concepts by offering fresh, quality food in a cost-effective manner.
