What Wine with BBQ brisket (Texas style)?

Of course the Beverage Choice is usually made by popping a brew or two before, during and after the long process of baby sitting your BBQ pit (or weber grill) for hours. But what does the devoted wine drinker do? My goal was to A.try my hand at this classic American artform and B. find a good wine to have with it. Little did I know the level of craftsmanship real pitmasters achieve with what is basically a big hunk of charred cow. If you’re interested  http://www.amazingribs.com/recipes/beef/texas_brisket.html has a great exposition on all the details and the topics of great debate in the world of bbq-ed meats. Suffice it to say my brisket hit the grill at about 7am and didn’t get to my plate til nearly 2pm, and that was a rush job!  Read more about my adventures in BBQ http://www.moraswines.com/blog/2013/06/wine-texas-style-bbq-brisket/
