Disneyland has set an official opening date for its Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree.
The restaurant replaces the former Hungry Bear Restaurant in the land formerly known as Critter Country and now known as Bayou Country thanks to the impending opening of Tiana's Bayou Adventure.
Disneyland is honoring the original residents of the land that first was known as Bear Country by theming the restaurant to its Country Bears franchise. Music by the Country Bears will play at the restaurant (though the Audio Animatronics will not be seen), which will serve a barbecue menu.
Here is the full list of entrees that will be available, again, starting October 25 (yours truly's birthday!):
Prices were not available yet. The former Hungry Bear offered cheeseburger, a chicken sandwich, and chicken tenders, so expect higher prices due to the upgrade in selections.
Disneyland just raised its ticket prices, but you can still get multi-day tickets at the old prices through out partner. In fact, you can get 3-, 4-, and 5-day adult tickets at the old kids' ticket prices, too. Just visit our partner's Disneyland tickets page to see what's available.

It’s a big step up from only having basic hamburgers and chicken tenders as in the past. I’m happy about the return of barbecue to the park and will be checking this out when I go in November.
I miss Big Thunder Barbecue.

You would think with so many excellent restaurants in this corner of the park, Disney would need to be inventive with the menu. Instead they come out with this generic BBQ restaurant menu that doesn't have anything unique or interesting (not even sides). The least they could have done is replicated the Woody's Roundup menu (DHS), which has at least a few creative dishes, but Disney couldn't even do that here.
