Moe’s Original BBQ in Orange Beach, Alabama Set To Reopen after Devastating Fire

After an long awaited rebuild, Moe’s Original BBQ will reopen to the general public on Friday at 11am at 25603 Perdido Beach Blvd. in Orange Beach. While the extensive construction took longer than expected, 800 square feet was added to the size of the building to make the dining room, bathrooms and kitchen larger. Additonally, salads, Bushwackers and liquor drinks were added to the menu. Guests dining in will receive buzzers while waiting for their orders. Take out customers will be texted when orders are ready and will be able to grab them quickly from a designated pick up window. To celebrate the reopening, Moe’s Original BBQ is hosting a free show with country music singer-songwriter Brent Cobb along with musician Rob Aldridge on Friday at 6:30pm in the Backyard.

We looked to the positive and saw it as an opportunity for a new beginning to come back even better!” said Co-Owner Lee Nelson. “We are thrilled to be able to open back up for our customers and supporters who were there for us through these difficult times.”

Moe’s Original Bar B Que Set to Open Two More South Alabama Restaurants

1466036_245002952347551_2080258404_nThe highly popular Moe’s Original Bar B Que will be adding two additional ventures to its three other area restaurants in Mobile, Daphne and Orange Beach. Opening in early March with drive thru service, the West Mobile location at 4672 Airport Blvd will be close to the University of South Alabama and the airport. Located in the heart of Foley at 20733 Miflin Road, this new eatery will start to serve customers in April. At both locations, guests can expect the menus to be the same as the other locations with the famous Alabama-style hand pulled pork, smoked chicken wings, turkey, fried shrimp and catfish, Memphis-style dry rubbed ribs and more, not to mention the favorite southern sides made from scratch daily. The design of both locations will have repurposed materials including reclaimed barn wood and oxidized tin that will give a rustic look to make each spot feel like they’ve been there forever. While both BBQ joints are family friendly, there will also be full bars complete with bushwackers, Alabama beers and more for the adults!

“We are very excited about the opening of these new restaurants and expanding our company’s reach in Baldwin and Mobile counties,” said co-owner Mark White. “Additionally, we plan on using as much fresh local seafood and produce as possible in all of this area’s stores.”

Recognized with many awards, Moe’s Original Bar B Que has been named one of the Top 10 Rib Joints in the U.S. by Relish and Top 10 BBQ Chains in America by USA Today and The Daily Meal. Years after learning to fire roast meats in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Mike Fernandez, Ben Gilbert and Jeff Kennedy discovered a shared passion for BBQ and founded Moe’s Original Bar B Que in Vail, Colorado in 2001. Today, with 35 other locations in 10 states, the popular restaurant serves up an Alabama BBQ experience complete with Southern sides and desserts made fresh daily from recipes passed down for generations.
