Animal Kingdom’s Flame Tree BBQ Ribs Recipe

4.7

It’s one of my favorite places to eat at Animal Kingdom theme park and never disappoints. Flame Tree BBQ serves up some amazing dishes including chicken, ribs, pulled pork, mac n cheese and more. One of my all-time favorites is their BBQ Ribs which are slowed smoked to pink perfection and seasons with spices and sauce.

If your mouth is watering like mine then you’ll want to jump into this recipe as soon as possible! This comes right from Disney and isn’t too hard to make assuming you have cooked meat before. Don’t expect perfection from this the first time but DO expect a tasty meal.

It does require some prep time so start planning the day before you want to eat. Make sure you have all the right tools to make these BBQ ribs (which we’ve listed below). We prefer the smoker method if you can swing it.

Be sure to take a look at all our Disney Parks Recipes that you can enjoy at home!
