Basta Barbecue 0 Skip to Content Home Menu Past Events Open Menu Close Menu Home Menu Past Events Open Menu Close Menu Home Menu Past Events 1535 West 6th AvenueVancouver, British Columbia View fullsize Basta Barbecue is a BBQ pop-up concept at the Farmer’s Apprentice Restaurant. We offer a new-school approach to barbecue, inspired by the rich barbecue traditions of Central Texas and other regions around the world. Our team, with diverse cultural backgrounds and experience, is re-inventing barbecue with the same focus on fresh and local ingredients that Farmer's Apprentice is famous for. We want to take the best of barbecue; the technique and the flavour imparted by low-temperature, slow cooking over wood fire. However, we don’t want to simply replicate. We want our food to reflect our time and place. Old barbecue favourites will always be part of the menu, but we will also cook proteins, vegetables, and sides that reflect the cultural diversity of Vancouver and utilize what is grown locally.
