If dragging and dropping works for you, that's great.

You can assign a keyboard shortcut for the New Window Containing Selection service in System Preferences->Hardware->Keyboard & Mouse->Keyboard Shortcuts. That's also useful for reassigning shortcuts for services that conflict with each other (e.g. shift-command-U for Open URL in <browsername> is a common conflict).
