Smoke on the Water
Smoke on the Water is a BBQ shack perched on the wharf in Gibsons, BC, where owner Chris Van Nus slow-smokes meats on-site over real hardwood using techniques learned from a World Champion Pit-master in Arkansas. The menu centres on pulled pork, brisket, and heritage chicken sandwiches made with locally sourced ingredients, alongside platters and sides. Primarily a takeout operation with 14 outdoor seats overlooking Gibsons Harbour, it is a compelling fuel stop for cyclists touring the Sunshine Coast.
