CHARLOTTE, N.C., Nov. 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Firebirds Wood Fired Grill has created a new Winter Features menu that will warm your taste buds this season.

The Honey Whiskey BBQ Burger, Pepper Encrusted New York Strip and Grilled Shrimp and Scallops are among the new menu entrees. Complete any of these meals with a slice of rich Pyramid Peak Chocolate Cheesecake topped with balsamic marinated strawberries.

"Our team works hard to understand what our guests are looking for in ingredients and flavors specific to the season," said Firebirds Executive Chef Steve Sturm. "We have combined traditional favorites with trending items to create features such as the Baked Herbed Goat Cheese Fondue and our savory Pepper Encrusted Steak, inviting guests to enjoy flavors of the season."

• Pepper Encrusted Steak - sliced wood-grilled steak, creamy brandied peppercorn sauce, served with crispy potatoes and asparagus

Firebirds' hand-crafted seasonal cocktails such as The Tipsy Pig, Cinnamon Roast and One Chill Mule, as well as several others, are available through the beginning of next year. In addition to its ample wine list, Firebirds is introducing two new wines for the winter season:

• Hess Shirtail Ranches Chardonnay 2017: "Our Chardonnay is sourced entirely from our 352-acre estate vineyard in Monterey's coastal valley. This wine's balanced acidity complements tangy, spicy foods and will offset the richness of creamier dishes."
• Hess Shirtail Ranches Cabernet Sauvignon 2016: "A blend of Cabernet grapes from our best vineyards across California's North Coast, this wine is fruit-forward with bright aromas and flavors. It is a very versatile wine that pairs with many types of foods and complements a variety of meats."

In addition to its great feature menu, Firebirds offers beautifully designed gift cards perfect for holiday gifting to coworkers, family and friends. Guests will receive $20 in bonus gift cards with every $100 spent on Firebirds gift cards in store or online through Jan. 1. Or, if gift cards are purchased in bulk, guests will save up to 25% with Firebirds' corporate buying program year-round
