Featured Restaurant

The Washington Beef Commission & Double R Ranch features Lisa Dupar Catering at the Washington Beef Bar. They will be sampling Bourbon braised beef short ribs. Pair this delectable dish with a Washington Syrah blend. Try to find a wine that has Grenache and Mourvedre blended with a Syrah . These three varietals together will include notes of black pepper, sweet red fruit and a touch of game that will echo the flavors of the short ribs. The acid in Syrah will help cut through the rich flavors of the short ribs while the power of the Granache will hold up to the Bourbon flavor.
