This document provides 3 tips for pairing wine with barbecue: 1. Chill red wine as well as serve it cold, as cold beverages are more refreshing and red wine can be delicious chilled to cleanse the palate between bites of fatty barbecue. 2. Don't waste expensive wines for casual barbecue gatherings - inexpensive, flavorful wines will pair well instead. 3. Match the type of wine to the main dish, such as white wine for fish or chicken, rosé for pulled pork, Pinot Noir for smoky or salty meats, Cabernet for ribs, and Syrah/Shiraz/Malbec for spicy foods. Red wine generally pairs well with beef.

2. Chill Your Wine
Cold beverage always taste better and
more refreshing. Someone may overlook
that red wine can be delicious when
chilled. Beer since acts as a palate cleanser
and thus is known as the king of BBQ. It
frees your taste buds of the fat and fatty
junk that meat leaves behind and replaces
it with cool acidity. Wine also can be even
more delicious.

3. Don’t Bother with
the Top Shelf
We sometimes keep an expensive bottle of
wine to be used for any special occasion.
However, a backyard BBQ or a get-together
with our family and friends may not appear
to be the best place and time to use it. Just
let your cares slip away and mix the wine
with BBQ sauce. There are a variety of
wines which are inexpensive and delicious
and will be a great pairing with your grilled
foods.

4. Match Your Wine
with Your Entree
There are few things to keep in mind when
planning for a menu.
White wine: Serving fish, chicken or pork
dishes, white wine is a stunning idea. It
even it goes amicably with rockfish, veg
burgers or hamburgers.

5. Roses: Rose will taste delicious with pulled
pork as Roses impart lovely aroma and are
excellent choice for most of the grilled
edibles. Moreover, they pair up too well with
almost everything.
Pinot Noir: If you have salty meat or took
extra time to smoke, bacon type flavor then
Pinot Noir is the best choice.
Cabernet: try out on vibrant cabernet blend if
you have rib item on your menu.

6. Syrah/Shiraz/Malbec: if you are in love with
spicy food then Syrah/Shiraz/Malbec will be
the best option.
Red Wine: For the Steak, hamburger, BBQ
ribs and beef tenderloin, red wine is the
safest choice.
You are the best judge of your table. If you
have a favorite wine, still you should try
different. This could give you more
refreshment.
