Bottles & Barbecue Comes to Blackstone This Sunday
Experience the ultimate wine and BBQ pairings in Omaha as class meets comfort in one flavorful afternoon. Corkscrew Wine & Cheese and Lazy Buffalo BBQ join forces for Bottles & Barbecue, happening Sunday, July 13th from 2–4 pm in Omaha’s Blackstone District.
The event brings together two beloved local spots—neighbors on the same block—for a one-of-a-kind food and wine experience. Guests can expect five creative BBQ dishes from Lazy Buffalo, paired with six curated wine selections from Corkscrew.
A Flavor-Forward Menu with Neighborhood Roots
Here’s what’s being served:
- Smoked pork belly deviled eggs
- Smoked turkey with apple slaw
- Ribs with Alabama white sauce
- Pulled pork sliders
- A smoky, refreshing dessert from Omaha’s own Iron Apron
Each dish is designed to be bold, balanced, and delicious, and Corkscrew’s team has matched them with six wine pairings to elevate every bite.
This unique event is not only about food and drink—it’s about making wine approachable and inviting to a broader audience. As Preston from Corkscrew Wine & Cheese explains,
“This is a chance to make wine fun, make it approachable, and help expand a new demographic to wines. We’re excited to partner with a local business like Lazy Buffalo and do something right here in our own neighborhood.”
Community Collaboration in the Heart of Blackstone
The collaboration between Corkscrew and Lazy Buffalo highlights the community-driven energy that defines Blackstone.
Bottles & Barbecue is exactly the kind of creative, community-rooted experience that makes Blackstone special. It’s not just a pairing of wine and BBQ—it’s a pairing of local passion and culinary innovation.
— Evan Kenkel, Omaha Food Magazine
Located side-by-side in the heart of Omaha’s Blackstone District, both businesses are rooted in local flavor—from Corkscrew’s accessible wine culture to Lazy Buffalo’s slow-smoked BBQ favorites.
Collaborating with Corkscrew for Bottles & Barbecue just made sense. We’re both passionate about what we do, and being neighbors in Blackstone gives us a chance to create something special for the community. It’s not just about good food and wine, it’s about bringing people together.” — Lazy Buffalo BBQ
