Emerging Fast Casual BBQ Concept Spreads into the Carolinas

“We wanted to keep with the overall atmosphere of Moe’s as its theme ties the South to the mountains, which is fitting for Asheville,” said co-owner Dave Rice. “Like the other Moe’s, our restaurant features walk up counter service, a premium bar, comfortable booths and tables surrounded by Southern sports memorabilia and concert posters on the walls.”

Years after learning to fire roast meats Bama-style, Alabama natives Mike Fernandez, Ben Gilbert and Jeff Kennedy founded Moe’s Original Bar B Que in Vail, Colorado in 2001. Using recipes passed down for generations, Moe’s Original Bar B Que prepares meats and an array of Southern side dishes and desserts fresh daily. Continuing to grow and open new franchises at an aggressive, yet manageable pace, Moe’s Original Bar B Que has 15 other locations in Daphne, Fairhope, Orange Beach, Vestavia Hills, Hoover, Lakeview, Tuscaloosa, Huntsville and Birmingham, Alabama, Denver, Englewood, Fort Collins, Lakewood, Eagle and Vail, Colorado with another opening soon in Atlanta, GA. All Moe’s open daily for lunch and dinner starting at 11am and serve until it’s gone!
