O conceito da série foi criado para o Discovery Channel como Tall Tales or True pelo roteirista e produtor australiano Peter Rees da Beyond Productions em 2002. A Discovery inicialmente rejeitou a proposta porque eles tinham acabado de encomendar uma série sobre o mesmo tópico. Rees refinou o projeto para se focar mais no teste de elementos chaves da história ao invés de simplesmente recontá-las. A Discovery concordou em produzir três episódios pilotos da série. Jamie Hyneman foi um dos vários artistas de efeitos especiais que receberam um pedido da produtora para produzir um vídeo de seleção para a consideração da emissora. Rees já o havia entrevisto antes para um segmento da série Beyond 2000, sobre uma série de combates de robôs chamada Robot Wars. Adam Savage, que trabalhou com Hyneman em comerciais e na série BattleBots, foi convidado por Hyneman para ajudá-lo a co-apresentar a série porque, de acordo com Savage, Hyneman se achava muito desinteressante para apresentar o programa sozinho.

Think the days of bootleggers, backwoods stills and "white lightning" are over? Not a chance! It's a multi-million dollar industry. But perhaps more importantly to the moonshiners, it's a tradition dating back hundreds of years, passed down to them from their forefathers. It's part of their history and culture. While this practice is surprisingly alive and well, it's not always legal. Moonshiners tells the story of those who brew their shine - often in the woods near their homes using camouflaged equipment - and the local authorities who try to keep them honest. Viewers will witness practices rarely, if ever, seen on television including the sacred rite of passage for a moonshiner - firing up the still for the first time. They will also meet legends, including notorious moonshiner Marvin "Popcorn" Sutton.
