Michigan/IU night game - What's on tap tomorrow drink and food wise?

TGIF! Tomorrow's game is huge in more ways than 1. This team has so much to play for and coaches are feeling it whether they admit it or not. Having said that, what is on tap at your house drink and food wise for the 7:30 PM kick off tomorrow?

Home made fried chicken with all sorts of sides as well as sweet tea (non drinker here). Can't wait for the game! Looking forward to all of the replies and Go Blue! Support the TEAM

Grilled chicken and veggies and probably some Basil Hayden's Dark Rye - a rye blend with a touch of port, for those that may be unfamiliar. Usually make an Old Fashioned.

Probably be too busy trying to figure out why this is a 7:30 kick off while last week was 12. Can't eat with all that on the mind.

Throwing a pork butt and some ribs on the smoker in the AM. Ribs should be done for lunch and pulled pork for dinner. Maybe throw some queso on the smoker for an afternoon snack.

No plans for drink yet, probably some pumpkin beers during yard work before settling into some bourbon for the game.

My go-to for pork is the Gospel from Meat Church, although I've been meaning to try their Honey Hog Hot. Yellow mustard binder on the butt, no binder on the ribs. My wife also has this cherry pork rib that she likes ( Three Little Pigs Touch of Cherry), so I'll add that to her half of the rack of ribs. 

I'm a no-wrap guy, just throw it on, spritz every hour or two, and let 'er ride.

I have bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs that will be going on to my Weber Grills Kettle for some mesquite smoke and then turned into smoked chicken tacos. Giddy up.

Braised short ribs with polenta.  Since I'm lazy, I'll braise the short ribs in an Instant Pot and cook the polenta in a rice cooker.

 

After walking home from the stadium:  apple pie with ice cream.

Pork shoulder should be done in about 30 minutes.  Will whip up some green Chile cornbread and some jalapeño creamed corn tomorrow.  Sippin on some Heady Topper. I might have to make some sweet tea too now that you mentioned it OP!

With the recent cold spell I'm taking my $4.00 day after Easter ham out of the freezer and making a huge batch of both split pea and bean soups.  Prob down some leftover Oktoberfests as well.

We're not in Ann Arbor but my plan for my husband and I is to get Chicago's version of chipati's from a place called Pockets. It's a close match to the one Pizza House used to make back in my day. Either that or a bibimbap, which I used to get at Steve's Lunch. Just something with an Ann Arbor connection. A few weeks ago, I made a Zingerman's Georgia Reuben and it wasn't half bad.

Pork Butt will go in the crock pot at about 7:30 AM, and then I will head to the Border War in Laramie, WY tomorrow. After the game, come home, finish the carnitas, and it’s taco time with the night game. I got married in New Orleans last weekend and I am not so sure I will be drinking this weekend. Maybe some Coca-Cola and some of the green stuff.
