Rachael Ray is back to host her signature Amstel Light Burger Bash presented by Pat LaFrieda Meats. This walk-around sampling of the country’s best burger creations, uniquely accompanying side dishes and Amstel Light Lager beer, takes place underneath the iconic white tents directly on the sand behind The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach hotel. Rachael is a Food Network icon. She currently serves as team captain and co-hosts the Food Network show Rachael vs. Guy: Celebrity Cook-Off and her own highly successful award-winning syndicated daytime program Rachael Ray Show.  Michael Symon from B Spot has claimed the coveted People’s Choice award the last three years. Which chef will dethrone Symon from his Prime Minister of Patties position and start their own reign as the Baron of Buns? Attend the event and vote for your favorite! For all you wine lovers, we will be serving Rosé D'Anjou, from the Loire Valley in the heart of France. Rosé D'Anjou is the perfect pairing for burgers, barbecue and the back yard. Rosé D'Anjou is subtly sweet, very refreshing and lots of fun.
