1, 12 ounce can of Pale Ale

Frying oil such as peanut oil or canola oil

Instructions

Onion Rings

Step 1

Start by putting your oil on the burner and heating it to 350°F. Keep a candy thermometer in the oil to monitor the temperature and turn up or down the burner keeping it as close to 350°F as possible.

Step 2

To make the batter. Mix the flour with all the seasonings thoroughly in a bowl with a whisk.

Step 3

Slowly add in the beer and keep whisking, it should be the whole can to make the batter, the consistency should be similar to a pancake batter.

Step 4

Slice the jalapeño about ¼ inch thick and keep in the seeds.

Step 5

To clean the onion, chop off the head and the root, then chop the onion into half and remove the skin. Separate the rings from the onion.

Step 6

Place 5-6 rings and a few jalapeño slices into the batter and coat them evenly, tap off the excess batter and slowly place into the hot oil. They should take about a minute and a half to fry and will most likely need to be flipped half way through.

Step 7

When they are golden brown, remove them and set on a few paper towels to collect the excess oil.

Step 8

Serve up with your favorite sauce, fry sauce here in Utah, bbq sauce, garlic aioli or a spicy mayo, you choose; or add to your favorite pulled pork sandwich.
