News Regal Eagle Smokehouse: Craft Drafts & Barbecue replacing Liberty Inn

My question is what will become the “festival” food for the pavilion when bbq is permanent. One of the best parts of f&w and f&g is seeing how many ways they can serve pork & beef. Not counting the year they had the maple bacon cupcake.

There's always turkey.

Plus BBQ, would show foreign visitors that American cuisine is more than burgers and nuggets.

Sadly. many non-American visitors to WDW are perplexed by the various BBQ offerings on offer as we simply don't understand why anyone would soak decent meat in sugar.

Sugar? You must be eating the trash kind of BBQ.

What the heck kind of BBQ are you eating?

[/QUOTE Anything BBQ at Disney (From Flame Tree etc,) just tastes to a European palette as if somebody poured 1lb of sugar over it, or sat it in a vat of cola for 24 hours.

That's probably the barbecue sauce that is sweet.

 

[MisterPenguin]

Honey, corn syrup, table sugar... they all have nearly identical percentages of sucrose and fructose. Depending on preparation and source they may each have their own 'notes', e.g., honey from clover v. honey from some other flower offered to the busy bees, or, brown sugar v. molasses. But even sanitized and refined table sugar can have 'notes' added in with the other ingredients thrown into the mix. In BBQ sauces, I'm sure the other ingredients that most people add would overwhelm any of the 'notes' from the sweetener.

Everyone arguing who's BBQ is best is funny, it's smoked meat it's nothing special. This is going to be simple to appeal to everyone, smoked meat and a load of sauces with high fructose corn syrup (you guys love that crap). I am not sure why anyone thinks it's going to be amazing when every other Disney run QS restaurant in the park isn't.

I guess the real question is - will it be better than what is there now?

I don’t see how this is not going to be a win in that respect.

 

[TOCPE82]

Any word on an opening date for this?

Also, the standards for food in the WS is usually a bit higher than other areas...

Are Americans routinely shoving sugar-laden smoked meats into your mouth against your will while visiting the good ol' U S of A?

My favorite BBQ are those that use dry rubs rather than sauce anyways...although, I imagine rubs also include sugar.

BBQ excepted, the words dry and rub should rarely, if ever, be used in sequential order.

The Texas BBQ I'm used to is meat only. It's how it's cooked. Mesquite, for example.

 

[DCLcruiser]

I like to get dry rub meat and then add bbq sauce...best of both worlds.

That's why I always prefer the "sauce on the side" type of BBQ

No, I no longer order anything at Disney that claims to be BBQ having been caught out in the past. I am sure good BBQ exists in the U.S. but the stuff served at WDW is unpalatable in the extreme and I can't see any reason why it would change with the opening of the new smokehouse.
