The restaurant has 20 foot ceilings and spans 4300 square feet with booths, tables and bar seating for 90 while the 800 square foot patio seats 50 out front under the breeze of a huge fan. With a full premium bar, bushwackers and 12 beers on tap, the hickory wood bar extends 40 feet and is surrounded by huge HDTVs and a view of the stage for live music. In in effort to help revitalize the heart of downtown, the restaurant was a complete build out that kept with the character of the old building while allowing the owners to create the ultimate Moe’s Original Bar B Que experience from scratch.

“Justin, Joseph and I all enjoy being a part of the culture that surrounds Moe’s Original Bar B Que,” said co-owner Tyler Schuman. ”We wanted to bring that vibe and atmosphere to Cullman as this is where Justin and I grew up.”

Headquarted in Vail, Moe’s Original Bar B Que was founded by Alabama three boys; Mike Fernandez from Tuscaloosa, Ben Gilbert from Athens, and Jeff Kennedy from Huntsville. These partners learned how to fire roast meats from Tuscalooa legend Moses Day and it is his distinct style makes up Moe’s original flavor of BBQ. Local owners Justin and Tyler moved from Cullman to Vail when given the opportunity by the founding partners to join the team. After spending a year with the founders learning the ins and outs of running the restaurant and bar, they moved back South, added partner Joseph and honed their skills at several of the other Moe’s Original locations. Moe’s Original Bar B Que has quickly becoming a player in the fast casual marketplace with eleven additional Alabama locations as well as fourteen restaurants in Colorado, Georgia, Maine and North Carolina.
