Wine Pairing Recommendations For Low and Slow Food #SundaySupper
This week’s SundaySupper theme is all about “low and slow” foods. I adore foods prepared “low and slow” whether it’s a crock-pot, smoked meats, or on the stove top (gumbo anyone?). The foods are so full of flavor, one can use less expensive cuts of meat, and perhaps most of all, I like that you…
