- 2 large white onions, sliced ½-inch (1.3 cm) thick
- 1 cup (116 g) smoked beef
- 2 cups (227 g) shredded provolone or gruyere, sub mozzarella
- Louisiana-style BBQ Sauce
- 4 cups (1000 ml) canola oil or tallow, for frying
Beer Batter
- 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 2 tsp. smoked paprika
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 can (354 ml) beer
- Chop your leftover smoked beef, shred the cheese, and slice the onions into ½ inch (1.3 cm) thick slices.
- In a bowl, combine the beef, some of your favorite Louisiana-style sauce, and the shredded cheese. Take the onions and break them into rings. Take a big ring and select a smaller ring that fits inside. Stuff the space between the rings with the beef mixture. Freeze the stuffed rings for at least 30 minutes before frying.
- Using the side burner of your grill, preheat a deep pan or our Stainless Steel Wok with oil to around 375°F (191°C). Preheat the main grill to a low temperature using one or two burners. Place a baking sheet onto the grill lined with a paper towel or with an inset rack.
- In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add enough beer to make a thick batter resembling pancake batter.
- When the oil is at temp, dip the stuffed rings into the batter, thoroughly coating them. Fry for 5 to 7 minutes or until golden and crispy. Using tongs or a spider, remove the finished rings to the baking sheet on the main cooking grids to keep warm until you have finished battering and frying all of the onion rings. Season to taste with salt while they are still warm.
- Serve your rings as part of a meal or as an appetizer with additional BBQ sauce to dip.
