A partial solution to this evil-maid attack vector is Heads firmware (a replacement for the bios/uefi itself), which lets you sign the contents of your unencrypted boot partition using a gpg key on a hardware token, and verify the integrity of the firmware itself using a totp/hotp key stored in the tpm.
All the benefits of secure boot, but you get to control the signing keys yourself instead of relying on a vendor. It’s great stuff.
