Big News, Disney Foodies! Could Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs Finally Have Broken the Corn Dog Curse at Disney World?
Magic Kingdom enthusiasts might want to sit down for this one: the notorious lack of high-quality corn dogs at Walt Disney World might be a thing of the past. Enter Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs, a newcomer straight out of Disneyland Resort, which has just opened its stand at Disney’s BoardWalk. This much-anticipated debut has had Disney fans buzzing ever since whispers of its arrival first surfaced in late 2022 and were officially confirmed in summer 2023.
For years, Disneyland’s Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs have set the gold standard for this beloved snack, cranking out Instagram-worthy creations like giant mozzarella sticks and creatively crusted hot dogs. Could this be the long-awaited savior for Florida’s corn dog aficionados? We headed to the stand, located across from AbracadaBar, to find out if the curse is finally over.
The setup at Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs is straightforward and customer-friendly. You order at a window and receive a pager to notify you when your freshly prepared treats are ready—about a 10-minute wait. On the menu, you’ll find both traditional and kid-sized options, alongside some more adventurous choices that have us all pretty excited.
First up, the Golden Dragon Corn Dog, is a panko-crusted, all-beef delight served with sriracha mayonnaise and sweet Thai chili sauce. At $15.50, including a bag of classic Lay’s Chips, it’s a bit of a splurge but proves worth every penny. Next, we sampled our favorite, the Mexican Street Corn Dog: a jalapeño cheddar sausage enveloped in cornmeal batter, crowned with garlic mayo, corn kernels, cotija cheese, cilantro, and a lime wedge for that extra zing.
Completing the trio of standout items is the divisive Pickle Dog—a hot dog enveloped by a dill pickle, fried in cornmeal batter, and rolled in panko. Though opinions may vary, this quirky dog comes with peanut butter dipping sauce, sparking an oddly delicious flavor fusion.
Is the curse broken? Absolutely. Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs has delivered not just better corn dogs, but an elevated snacking experience that is poised to become a must-try at Disney’s BoardWalk. Their unique flavors and high quality make it a worthy experience for any Disney park-goer.
