This authentic BBQ spot smokes all in-house so be prepared to leave with the aroma of meaty goodness lingering in your hair; you may not ever want to wash it out!<\/p>\n<p>This West End spot has a southern saloon vibe and is best visited on a rainy night where you can huddle up inside with bunch of pals and share a feast. Dark wood is big here in the long narrow room, which has\u00a0bar and window seating, as well as the series of tables tightly positioned along the left side of the room. You&#8217;ll get to know your dining companions here, so be sure to bring some good ones.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s already a neighbourhood favourite, but many cross town to visit, as it&#8217;s that good. Buckstop is owned by Fiona Grieve, who tolled in various restaurants and bars until she saved\u00a0enough\u00a0money to start her own place; a huge bravo to her! Although the kitchen was set up by a former pro BBQ\u00a0chef, she&#8217;s now often in charge of manning\u00a0smoker as well as tending the bar and front of house, and handles it all in stride.<\/p>\n<p>Everything is house-made here including the chipotle ketchup and chutney, and they&#8217;ve got a nice selection of craft beers which are essential for this style of fare. And thankfully\u00a0there&#8217;s a descent bourbon list and some cocktails that are equally appropriate.<\/p>\n<p>We had the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.socialshopper.com\/redirect.php?c=fNFvNJXb8qhjkCtMfjdx\"><strong>SocialShopper Deal<\/strong><\/a><strong>,\u00a0<\/strong>which is\u00a0a\u00a0classic American barbecue feast for two people, including fried dill pickles, a pulled pork sandwich, a smoked chicken leg, St. Louis pork ribs, navy beans, Kennebec fries, hush puppies, cornbread and honey butter.\u00a0(value $57 &#8211; costs merely $28-$30 depending of the day of the week)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7269.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"28306\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/buckstop-bbq\/img_7269\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7269.jpg?fit=1200%2C782&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1200,782\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_7269\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7269.jpg?fit=788%2C513&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-28306\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7269-1024x667.jpg?resize=474%2C308\" alt=\"IMG_7269\" width=\"474\" height=\"308\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7269.jpg?resize=1024%2C667&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7269.jpg?resize=300%2C195&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7269.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7265.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"28304\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/buckstop-bbq\/img_7265\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7265.jpg?fit=1200%2C800&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1200,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_7265\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7265.jpg?fit=788%2C525&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-28304\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7265-1024x682.jpg?resize=474%2C315\" alt=\"IMG_7265\" width=\"474\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7265.jpg?resize=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7265.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodlifevancouver.com\/staging\/2138\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_7265.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To start the hush puppies, cornbread and deep-fried pickles made a tasty appearance and we had to hold back as we were warned of the upcoming feast; not an easy task.
