Just wondering what everyone else is planning for their celebration meal and snacks. 
 

I usually smoke some wings but after last year leaning towards mixing it up with some Ribs or possibly a TriTip. Decisions, decisions.

Miller's Meats or Boulevard Fine Meats and Deli usually have them.

Big fan of Boulevard

Where the hell do I find a good tri tip in Winnipeg

Depends on what part of the city. Boulevard Meats in Southdale and sometimes Coop stores. Price is sometimes the obstacle more than anything, shouldn’t run $19.99/lb but has at times this year.

same....go often

Costco (Regent) had some AAA 2 packs of tri tip for $44-50 today. 
 

Pretty good deal overall.

We need a social so bad.....

How can you guys eat?!? Ill be munching on a steady supply of my own fingernails until the final whistle and/or were up by 50 at the half.

Mighty meats out in Charleswood sells tri-tip, well cut, they also carry Picanha roast which IMO is just slightly better than tri-tip....Add some fresh homemade chimichurri.....

I am sticking to my opinion that "resting" can cause rust and over confidence just like it did to Toronto this year.

Can we get back to food & drink here for Da Big Game, please? 

Gonna have wings on the menu. We usually buy finger foods for the Grey Cup & Super Bowl. My liquor has run out so I'll have to buy a bottle of Crown Royal & Jack Daniels.

Menu will be something like:

1. Potato skins

2. Grilled S&P wings

3. Chips and dip

4. Coconut and tempura shrimp (thank you Costco)

5. Appleton Estates Rum

6. Maybe some carrots and celery sticks...maybe!

Nothing wrapped in bacon?...or all of it wrapped in bacon? 

I don't know about you guys but the menu has to include nachos.

My get together is only going to be one or two friends. If the Bombers aren't in it (which has been a while) big parties are great. When they are playing, if you aren't watching the game or are talking during the action, it's GTFO of my house. I'm stressed enough.

There will be bacon in the potato skins and I make a bacon dip n dunk Bacon Dip ‘n Dunk – The Canuck Foodies Recipes (home.blog for the chips.

This is so true. My wife says it's like she's watching a caged animal watching me watch the Bombers.

That is the downside of going to my buddies house, where there are families and parents, etc. Me and him are the only ones who TRULY are invested.

Many, many distractions.

2019 and 2021 I had small gatherings of a few friends. Last year I invited another couple to join my regular group and we lost. They are not allowed back. They are the bad luck guys. Although they did bring a sensational platter of home made pastrami fresh off the smoker, along some excellent swiss, fermented sauerkraut, KUB bread, spicy mustard and even the George Foreman for grilling up reubens. 

Hell, maybe I will invite them back and just have them saged before the game by an elder. They are big Bomber fans so I am sure they will understand the need to do so.

so much this. If it's a game the Bombers aren't in, then whatever... it can be a party..... if the Bombers are playing, then the guest list is SHORT. I do not want random fans of other teams... I do not want people who are just there for a party..... this has to be Bombers fans only, and you have to understand the gravity of the situation. Anyone else can GTFO. 

I can't watch a Bombers' Grey Cup with casuals. I would lose my mind. 

I can't stand GC parties. I just want to watch the game. In fact, I sent my wife to a GC party without me once. Yah, just the once.
