Overview

About This Establishment

Moab’s Blu Pig delivers a bluesy, smoke-kissed BBQ hammer. Baby Back Ribs fall-off-the-bone with a crackly bark; Pulled Pork stays moist and deeply smoky, with KC or garlic-black pepper sauces. Smoked Prime Rib shows up after 5 PM on weekends, tender and juicy with proper doneness. Generous portions invite a doggie bag, and the scene hums with live blues and indigo lighting.
