Smirnoff Ice Influencer: Homegating

Hoping everyone had a fun filled Christmas, and that SANTA was good to one and all.  Here we go, with New England facing NY seeking victory in order to clinch home field advantage.  The buzz and excitement of the Christmas season and play offs, has all football fans gathering together more, and each game is “Do or Die” this only amplifies my menu to pair with the suspense.  Since the football itself is called the “Pig Skin” lets go pig theme all the way.  Serving Pigs In A Blanket with Low & Slow Pork Back Ribs of course paired with crisp refreshing Smirnoff Ice #GamedayReady

The beauty of Smirnoff Ice coolers, is not just the explosion of flavor with every sip, but also how easily it is to create food pairings to please all palates.  In this case, we have “Pigs In A Blanket” the pork sausage is a ideal partner with each and any of the “Life Of The Party Pack” flavors.  The pork is a perfect canvas to display the tastes of Apple, Cranberry, Peach and Watermelon.  Once again each drink is like a vacation in a glass, which brings sensations of an eternal summer.  Thoughts that really can enthuse and warm any football fan up during these cold winter months.

The star of the menu is the “Low&SlowRibs” the aromas emanating from the kitchen, fill the house and start taste buds watering and tummies grumbling.  A simple recipe consisting of a dry rub of salt, pepper, cayenne, garlic powder, cumin, all spice and for the brave chipotle flakes let cook at 250F for 2 hours, at this point you can add your favorite sauce.  Continue to cook at 250F for another 2 hours and serve.  Pairing with Smirnoff Ice coolers is the ultimate compliment to the ribs.  The Smirnoff Ice flavors dance along side the spices, bringing out the nuances of all that has been created.  Have each of your guests cheering for their teams, but also for the TOUCHDOWN of a meal prepared and paired with #GamedayReady Smirnoff Ice coolers.
