Memphis Style Ribs

Memphis Style Ribs are a classic barbecue dish featuring tender, slow-cooked pork ribs seasoned with a dry rub blend of paprika, brown sugar, black pepper, garlic, cayenne pepper, and onion. The ribs are grilled to perfection, resulting in a smoky, savory flavor with a slightly sweet and spicy kick. The meat is succulent and falls off the bone.

For Memphis Style Ribs, a full-bodied white Chardonnay or a medium-bodied red Merlot would pair well. The Chardonnay's rich texture and subtle oakiness complement the savory, smoky flavors of the grilled pork ribs. Alternatively, Merlot's soft tannins and fruity notes balance the spicy rub containing paprika, brown sugar, black pepper, garlic, cayenne, and onion, enhancing the overall taste experience.
