Casseroles are usually rich in flavour yet quite smooth due to their long cooking times. A similarly rich and smooth beverage will therefore work well with them. If your food is very fatty, you can cut it with a well-balanced beverage.

Almost any red wine will work with beef, as long as it’s full-bodied enough. You can also opt for full-bodied beers with beef.
