THIS IS NOT A DRILL!
After waiting what seems like ages for the iconic Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs to open on Disney’s BoardWalk, the time has FINALLY come. That’s right — the Disneyland snack spot has officially opened a location at Disney World and we couldn’t be more thrilled. We’ve got that (corn) dog in us and we’re ready for more — so come with us to try the BRAND-NEW Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs at Disney World!
Have you ever rope-dropped a corn dog stand? Because we have — and we’d do it again in a heartbeat. Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs is now open at Disney’s BoardWalk and we’re bringing you along as we check it out! There are plenty of dogs to choose from — some fancy and some classic. You’ll also find drinks like lemonade and fresh cotton candy on the menu as well!
First up, we had to get the viral Pickle Dog. Yep, you read that correctly. The Pickle Dog is an all-beef hot dog, wrapped in a pickle, fried in cornmeal batter, and Panko crusted. It’s served with a bag of chips and peanut butter for dipping — and you can get it for $15.50.
We’ve tried this dog at Disneyland, but we were excited to check it out on the East Coast, too! We’re happy to report it’s just as delicious as we remember. Our reporter who tried this out was worried that as much as they love both ingredients individually, it wouldn’t be the best pairing due to one overwhelming the other. But thankfully that wasn’t the case!
The pickle is more refreshing than tangy and the hot dog still had a nice pop to it. Together they made a salty and sour combination that was really unique. It very much has a “boardwalk snack” vibe going for it so it’s fitting that it’s at the BoardWalk Inn! The batter is perfectly crispy thanks to the panko bread crumbs and you can taste the freshness. It’s definitely not something we could see ourselves eating often, but we’d definitely get it again as a fun snack.
We also grabbed the Mexican Street Dog for $15.50. This is a jalapeño cheddar sausage fried in cornmeal batter topped with garlic mayo, corn kernels, cotija cheese, and cilantro. It’s served with a lime wedge and a bag of chips, too.
This is such a unique twist on a typical corn dog and yet still very authentic to what you would expect elotes to taste like! The cotija cheese, the garlic mayo, the corn, and the cilantro all come together and make this little dog delicious. It’s nice to see all the classic ingredients represented in this dish and prepared so well.
The interesting thing about this item, to us, is the jalapeño cheddar sausage instead of a regular hot dog — so it’s not just a regular corn dog with unique toppings, but is unique down to its core. Every ingredient is combined to make a mind-blowing combination. The corn dog comes with a side of lime and we definitely recommend squeezing that over the corn dog. We did think it had quite a kick, however, so it might not be the best option for someone who doesn’t enjoy spice or can’t tolerate much of it.
To wash everything down, we grabbed one of the fresh-squeezed lemonades as well. You can get lemon or strawberry or specialty flavors — a regular size is $7 and a large is $9. We opted for the Hibiscus Agave and Raspberry Apricot!
The Hibiscus Agave was SUPER delicious. It was sweet without that overly sugar taste — really refreshing and perfect on a hot day. As for the Raspberry Apricot, you can definitely taste both the raspberry and apricot flavors in this one. It was very fruity. This one was definitely sweet in a “there’s a lot of sugar in here” kind of way, but it was still balanced due to the tartness of the raspberry and lemon.
Unfortunately, as of now, there are no vegan or vegetarian corn dog options here, but we did confirm that the lemonade and cotton candy are both vegan. Luckily, there are plenty of other spots to grab a bite to eat at Disney’s BoardWalk — but we think Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs is a great addition!
We are SO excited that Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs is finally open on Disney’s BoardWalk. It’s just a short skip away from EPCOT, so consider stopping by to check it out on your next visit! In the meantime, we’ll be on the lookout for the latest and greatest snacks and news from Disney World — so make sure you stay tuned to Disney Food Blog for more.
