Wine with My Burger?

From chili cheeseburgers to Hawaiian-style pineapple-topped burgers, Americans can't get enough of this classic sandwich. In fact, hamburgers top the list as the most popular grilled food, according to the 2001 Weber® GrillWatch™ survey. And, whether you're into bold flavors or basic toppings nothing tops off a burger better than a simple glass of wine. See below for specific pairings.

Grilled Pineapple

Fruity Chardonnay for those who like white wine, or Beaujolais for those who prefer red will be delicious with this topping.

Grilled White Onions & Sautéed mushrooms with Swiss Cheese

An Italian Chianti or a California Sangiovese will be great with the mushrooms.

Pickled Relish & Yellow Mustard

White Zinfandel offers a soft and fruity balance to these piquant flavors

Lettuce, Tomato, Raw Red Onion, Ketchup & Mayonnaise

An Australian Shiraz or a Syrah from California can stand up to these varied flavors.

Chili Cheese Burger

The All-American Zinfandel has spiciness to match the chili.

Black Pepper, Gorgonzola & Hot Mustard

Cabernet Sauvignon with a Burger? Yes, with this one.

Avocado, Cucumber & Sprouts

White wine lovers will go for Sauvignon Blanc, those who like red try Merlot.
