Moe’s Original BBQ is fired up after being named the featured tailgate on ESPN GameDay’s live broadcast this Saturday as Duke takes on Notre Dame in Durham. The rib joint’s incredible flavors will take center stage in multiple tailgate segments, building up to an epic feast presented to the beloved broadcasters at the end of the show. Local owners/pitmasters Mobley Estes and Michael Roos’ mouthwatering menu will include tender whole brisket to finger-licking good ribs, smoked turkey, wings, and sausage links plus delicious sides of potato salad and marinated slaw finished off with epic banana pudding and a signature bushwacker cocktail. Additionally, as part of this exciting partnership, the rib joint will be catering its award-winning BBQ for the ESPN Gameday team on Friday for lunch. After the broadcast the party continues at Moe’s Original BBQ at 2014 Hillsborough Rd, right by campus. The restaurant, voted Best BBQ by Durham Magazine, will be celebrating with food and drink specials that include a pound of smoked wings for $10, $5 draft beers, $10 beer buckets, $3 vodka lemonades and seltzers, $5.50 for vodka red bull and $3 fireball shots.
