Recommended wine: Zinfandel, Rose Wine

Zinfandel and rosé Wine are great choices for Barbecue. 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. The Boneshaker Old Vine Zinfandel with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.
