Recommended wine: Zinfandel, Rose Wine

Barbecue can be paired with Zinfandel and rosé Wine. A rosé is refreshing in hot temperatures and complements sweet and spicy sauces and rubs. Zinfandel is a classic red wine choice for barbecue, especially for pork ribs and beef brisket. One wine you could try is Criss Cross Old Vine Zinfandel. It has 4.6 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 16 dollars.
