Is it uncomfortable eating so much meat right next to the ranch petting zoo? Nope. It's delicious. Lol!
If you are joining in for lunch, you can expect to be served: BBQ chicken and ribs, coleslaw, beans, and cornbread. Food is served family style in buckets. The chicken and ribs are tender and flavorful. Coleslaw is made without mayonnaise and I hear the cornbread is a mixture of cornmeal and yellow cake.
For dinner, you also get smoked sausage and wheels of corn on the cob. The corn is made with milk and butter...oh mah gawd. If you have a vegetarian in your party, or even if you don't, you can get tofu/veggie skewers. Be sure to let your server know if this is the case.
My party typically gets one of each to start, but will ask for second (and third or fourth) helpings of the meat and corn buckets. In fact, one time my brother put away almost 5 little buckets of meat, virtually single handed!
When I first started eating here, they would give you a to-go box for the leftovers, which would pretty much make up another meal. This is no longer done, but they did once tell us that we were free to take it home if we had our own containers. Your mileage may vary, hahaha!
Most of the time there is entertainment while you dine, a western themed music show or sometimes characters like Woody and Jessie stop by for a visit. We didn't see either on our last trip.
If you still have any room left for dessert, they have several options, generally gigantic skillets of baked goods and ice cream. You can actually just come for dessert, if space is available. If it's your birthday, or other special occasion, you may just get a chocolate cupcake.
Lunch is about $25 and dinner $30, with most desserts costing just under $10. I believe beverages are included for dinner. Big Thunder Ranch BBQ is located at the eastern edge of Frontierland, close to the Village Haus Restaurant.
