Has anyone tried the "new" Hungry Bear BBQ Jamboree?

I think I spelled it right. If you've tried it, do you like it or not? Hungry Bear has been a family favorite for 30+years, and I haven't been there since the change. I see they still offer the cheeseburger. I'll be going to DL for one day only after going to Oogie Boogie Bash with my dad and son. My dad won't care where we eat. He never does. I'm wondering if we should go there for dinner or somewhere else. First world problems and decisions, I know. I'm just curious what people think of the new food.

I've eaten there a few times. If you are just looking at the burger, I think the new one is much better than the previous version.

Not too long ago, I read an article in which Sysco stated it has been Disney’s primary food service supplier for over 20 years. Sysco offers many different levels of quality, but it’s likely it’s the same burger you’ve been eating for awhile.

Disney did upscale the rest of the menu as well as presentation. We find the food at Hungry Bear to be very good, but the prices are high for the portion sizes.

I LOVE the brisket sandwich!

The Burger is a burger. It's serviceable.

I don't have any photos of the burger. Here are photos of some of the other items on the menu. It isn't cheap, but the Craftsman Grill Burger is usually very good.

Hungry Bear Barbeque Jamboree



The restaurant just opened yesterday so the lines were very long. We mobile ordered earlier in the day which really helped.

Smoked Barbecue Combo Platter - A selection of House-smoked Meats, with Baked Beans, Coleslaw, White Bread and Pickled Vegetables. Select 2: Pork Spareribs, Pulled Pork, Sausage Link, or Beef Brisket

We chose ribs and sausage. I'm not much of a sausage person, but the other people in my party liked it. We got four ribs. Looking at other trays, it seems that maybe they had three.
My first rib was very dry and...

We looked for the cream puff this weekend, but they were out. We'll have to make a point to go earlier in the day on our next visit.
