Daniel McCoy Moses, 59, vanished from Rich Square, North Carolina, on June 16, 2011. Known locally as the Barbecue Man, he lived in a house that had belonged to his grandfather. That same day the house burned; after the fire was put out there was no sign of Daniel inside. Both of his cars and two motorcycles were parked on the property and his barbecue tools were laid out on the grill, details that his family says point to an unplanned disappearance.

Investigators later judged the fire likely accidental, possibly from faulty wiring on an air conditioning unit, and not connected to his disappearance. The initial inquiry was delayed when a then-girlfriend told police he had gone on vacation, postponing an official missing-person report by four days, a delay the family says hindered the investigation. Daniel was 6 feet 3 inches and about 200 pounds and trained in karate; his siblings say it would have been out of character for him to leave without telling them.

The family hired a private investigator, offered a $10,000 reward, and pursued leads and searches through the years, including activity prompted by tips in April 2023, but no breakthrough has been reported. Does anyone who knew Daniel or the Rich Square community in 2011 have information that could help explain his disappearance?
